应急英语口语-迷路

TRISH: Well, I'm glad you're finally back. I was wondering what happened.
SARAH: I feel kind of stupid.
TRISH: Why?
SARAH: We got lost coming back. I guess I don't really know this town yet.
TRISH: You got lost. You're kidding!
SARAH: No. We took a wrong turn somewhere.And Joseph doesn't know the town at all. So I started giving him directions.But I didn't really know where we were. So we got seriously lost.
TRISH: You could have called.
SARAH: I know I could have. But finally we asked someone where we were.
TRISH: You've been gone for two hours. How could you get lost for so long?
SARAH: Guess where we ended up.
TRISH: I don't know. Where?
SARAH: When we finally decided¹ to ask someone, they told us we were in Grangerfield.
TRISH: Grangerfield! You were in Grangerfield?That's a completely² different town! How could you drive to a completely different town?
SARAH: I don't know.The person we asked had to give us directions to the highway to get back here.
TRISH: Grangerfield is like a dozen miles away from here.
SARAH: I know it is. I don't know how it happened.
TRISH: Hmm, maybe I do.
SARAH: What?
TRISH: Maybe I have an idea how it happened.
SARAH: How?
TRISH: You were too busy looking at Joseph, and you weren't paying attention to the road.
SARAH: Oh, that's what you think, huh?
TRISH: Yes, that's what I think.Maybe the next time you go out with him to buy groceries³, you'll get lost for even longer.Maybe six hours or so.
SARAH: You know what, Trish?
TRISH: What?
SARAH: I hope so. I really hope so.
TRISH: Hah, hah! See? I guessed right. You weren't watching the road at all.
SARAH: No, I wasn't. It's kind of hard to watch the road when Joseph is behind the wheel.
崔喜：很高兴你终于回来了。我还在想发生了什么事。

崔喜：为什么？

崔喜：你迷路了，开玩笑吧！
莎拉：没有。我们在某个地方转错方向。约瑟夫对这个城镇一点儿都不熟悉，所以我开始指路。但是我实在不知道我们在哪儿，所以当真就迷路了。
崔喜：你可以打电话啊。
莎拉：我知道，但是最后我们终于问到人了。
崔喜：你们出去两小时了，怎么会迷路这么久？
莎拉：你猜我们到哪里了。
崔喜：不知道，哪里？
莎拉：当我们终于决定问人时，他们说我们在农场村。

崔喜：也许我知道这是怎么发生的。
莎拉：怎么发生的？
崔喜：你忙着看约瑟夫，你没专心看路。
莎拉：你是那么想吗？

莎拉：你知道吗，崔喜？
崔喜：什么？
