原版英語(yǔ)對(duì)話1000個(gè):885 Beaches

Rebecca: Hey, Diego.
Diego: Hey.
Rebecca: What are you going to do for summer break?
Diego: I'm thinking about going back home.
Rebecca: To Mexico?
Diego: Yeah. What about you?
Rebecca: I will go back to Australia, and I'll probably go the beach of course because Australia has such beautiful beaches.
Diego: Really?
Rebecca: Yes. Everybody knows that. On the East Coast. The best beaches. Does Mexico have any beaches?
Diego: Yeah, yeah. We have really, really nice beaches down by the Caribbean Ocean, like in Southern Mexico, there's this beautiful place called Cancun and the Ocean is really, really blue, like baby blue, and the sand is white so it looks like snow. It's a really amazing place.
Rebecca: Can you surf at the beach?
Diego: I'm sure you can surf in some places, yeah.
Rebecca: What about snorkeling?
Diego: Yeah, definitely. It's the Caribbean Ocean so the water is transparent so it's amazing. It's like looking at the sky and it's together with the ocean, ...
Rebecca: Blue!
Diego: Yes.
Rebecca: Well, have you been to the Great Barrier Reef?
Diego: I've heard about it, but I've heard that it's the biggest one in the world.
Rebecca: Hmm.
Diego: Well, we have the second biggest one in Mexico.
Rebecca: Aaahhhhh! This could be turned into a debate on who has the best beaches.
Diego: Maybe so. But what I like about this place called Cancun, is it has a lot of history. Have you ever heard about the Mayan civilization?
Rebecca: No.
Diego: It's an ancient civilization that was settled in Southern Mexico, so this is where the ruins are and they were very advanced people. They knew how to predict the eclipses for the next three hundred years, and they just vanished. They just disappeared.
Rebecca: They disappeared?
Diego: Yeah! And there's a new movie directed by Mel Gibson, Apocolypto. It's about their civilization.
Rebecca: Oh, OK. No, I haven't seen that movie at all. Well, I suppose I could go and compare our beaches. Go to Mexico and check out this place. What was the name of it again?
Diego: Cancun.
Rebecca: Cancun.
Diego: Well, we could do a home exchange. You can go to Mexico and I can go to Australia.
Rebecca: OK, let's do that.
Diego: Yeah, let's do that.
Rebecca: Great.
