Dialogue 8 Laurance-Where on earth are we? Soony- Judging by all the traffic, I'd say we're near the heart of the downtown area. Laurance-What did I do wrong? Did I take a wrong turn? Soony- I'm not sure, but I think that you turned left when you should have turned right. Laurance-Well, now the,problem is how to get back onto the main highway. Soony- Well, if I may offer a suggestion ... Why don't you stop and ask a policeman? Laurance-Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think I see one up there in the next block. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 注解: on earth:(口语中用于疑问句加强语气)究竟,到底,全然. heart of the downtown area:heart=center;downtown area指繁华的商业区.
