1. A: I hope you've enjoyed your stay with us.

1、A：我希望您在这儿住得愉快。

B: Yes, it was lovely, but I had to pay ￡95, which seems a bit expensive. Last time I stayed here, I only paid ￡80.

B：是的，这很好，但我要付95英镑，看起来有些贵。上次我在这儿住，我才付了80英镑。

A: Yes, I'm sorry, madam. We had to increase our prices considerably this year.

A：对，夫人，我很抱歉。我们今年不得不大幅涨价。

But that is actually a discounted price as you're a regular guest. It would normally be ￡105. B: Oh!

但其实这已经是折扣价了，因为您是我们的常客。正常的价格是105英镑。B：噢。

2. Now, on Thursday, there will be a special class, which will be given by a wonderful local artist.

2、在周四会有一节特殊的课，由一位杰出的当地艺术家来上课。

As this isn't included in your fees, you will need to pay for this on the day.

因为这没有含在你们的学费中，你们当天将需要付钱。

We've kept the costs low. It's only $10 for our regular students here.

我们把价格维持得很低。我们的固定学生只要10英镑。

If you want to bring along anyone else who hasn't studied with us before, the cost for them is $15.

如果你想带其他没在我们这儿上过课的人来，他们要付15英镑。

We charge them an extra $5 for the use of equipment, which old students have already paid for.

我们向他们征收额外5英镑的设备使用费，老生已经付过这笔钱了。

3. A: Can you tell me how big the garage is? I just want to make sure our cars will fit.

3、A：你能告诉我车库有多大吗？我想确保我们的车合适。

B: Let me have a look. How big are your cars?

B：让我看看。你的车多大？

A: Mine's about 1.5 metres wide and my wife's is almost the same.

A：我的车大约1.5米宽，我妻子的车也差不多。

B: Hmm, I don't think it's wide enough, I'm afraid. It says here that it's 3.5 metres across, and you need at least a metre between the cars to be able to open the doors.

B：我认为这里恐怕不够宽。这里写着横向距离3.5米，两辆车之间至少还需要1米以打开车门。

A: You're right. What about the height? Mine's a van I use for work and I carry a lot of equipment on top.

A：你说得对。那高度呢？我的是面包车，我工作用的，在顶上我还会装运很多设备。

B: Let me see. It's two and a half metres. Would that be tall enough?

B：让我看看。2.5米。这够高吗？

A: Oh, not for my big ladders, no. I'd like three metres at least.

A：噢，对于我的大梯子来说不够。我希望至少有3米高。

4. A: I'm thinking of taking my children to the Gold Coast in the holidays.

4、A：我在考虑假期带我的孩子去黄金海滩。

Can you tell me how much it would cost on the bus? I don't want to drive all that way.

你能告诉我乘大巴去要多少钱吗？我不想开车开这么远。

B: Right, you'd qualify for a family ticket, which is the cheapest way to do it. It'll be $55 altogether, normally a child's fare is $25 and an adult is $45. A: Oh, that's a good deal!

B：好，你符合家庭套票的资格，这是最便宜的。总共是55英镑，正常的一位儿童价格是25英镑，成人45英镑。A：噢，这很划算！

5. A: I am trying to organize a party and I wondered if your hotel had a room we could use?

5、A：我准备组织一场排队，我想知道你们酒店有没有我们能用的房间？

B: We do have several function rooms, what date did you have in mind for the party?

B：我们确有好几个功能室，你打算具体在什么日期办这场派对呢？

I'll just warn you we're already fully booked for the most of June, the first available date I have is 14th July.

我只是提醒一下，我们六月份基本上都订满了，我这儿最早能预定的日期是7月14日。

A: Oh, that's not a problem. It's for my dad's birthday, which isn't until 1st August.

A：噢，这不成问题。派对是为了我爸爸的生日办了，是8月1日。

B: That's a Tuesday.

B：那是周二。

A: Yes, so I'd like to hold it at the end of July, on the Saturday before.

A：对，所以我想在7月底办，之前的那个周六。

B: So, that's the 29th? A: Yes, that's right.

B：那么，就是29号？A：对。
