實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：Life in Sweden 瑞典的生活

Todd: So, Ruth in Europe, have you traveled much?

托德：魯斯，你去歐洲的很多地方旅行過嗎?

Ruth: Yeah, actually, um, well, when I was younger I went on a tour around all of Western Europe and then when I was at university I backpacked around Scandinavia for a month with a friend. (Nice!) It was really nice, actually, yeah.

魯斯：是的，實際上我年輕的時候去西歐旅行過，我上大學(xué)的時候和一個朋友去斯堪的納維亞半島背包旅行了一個月。(真好!)實際上那真的非常不錯。

Todd: Wow, so where did you go in Scandinavia?

托德：哇，那你都去斯堪的納維亞半島的什么地方了?

Ruth: Well, we started off in Sweden and then we went to Norway and then we went to Denmark. We never actually made it to Finland. That was simply because we ran out of money, so.

魯斯：嗯，我們從瑞典出發(fā)然后去了挪威和丹麥。可是我們沒能去芬蘭。原因很簡單，因為我們沒錢了。

Todd: So were you out in the wilderness, or were you just going from village to village?

托德：你是去曠野里旅行了，還是只是在各個村莊旅行?

Ruth: Really we just, we arrived in Stockholm. We went around Stockholm. We went to Oslo. We spent most of our time in the cities, although everything was so expensive. We ended up sleeping in youth hostels or on people's floors.

魯斯：我們?nèi)チ怂沟赂鐮柲?。我們在斯德哥爾摩四處轉(zhuǎn)了轉(zhuǎn)。我們還去了奧斯陸。我們大部分時間都在城市里旅行，不過城市里的所有東西都很貴。我們晚上會入住青年旅館或是睡在別人家的地板上。

Todd: What do you remember most about your trip?

托德：你在旅行中印象最深的事情是什么?

Ruth: Um, probably just having no money, so we couldn't eat really for a fortnight.

魯斯：嗯，可能就是花光了錢吧，所以我們兩星期都不能好好吃飯。

Todd: You couldn't eat?

托德：不能吃飯?

Ruth: Well, we ate breakfast in the youth hostel, and then we would take a bread roll from the youth hostel, from the breakfast bar and have that for lunch and then in the evening we would eat if we could afford it.

魯斯：嗯，我們在青年旅館吃早餐，然后我們會從青年旅館的早餐吧臺拿一個面包卷當(dāng)做午餐，晚上如果我們付得起我們就會吃飯。

Todd: Actually, in terms of food, what do people in Scandinavia usually eat?

托德：實際上，談到食物，斯堪的納維亞半島人一般都吃什么?

Ruth: Um, I think they eat a lot of potatoes and meat and things. I'm not sure really what a typical Scandinavian meal would be.

魯斯：嗯，我想他們常吃土豆和肉類這樣的食物。我也不太清楚斯堪的納維亞半島有什么典型食物。

Todd: That's OK. You didn't have any money to buy any food right?

托德：好吧。你沒有錢買吃的嗎?

Ruth: We didn't eat so.

魯斯：對，所以我們沒吃飯。

Todd: Yeah, silly question. Um, so what do you remember most about Stockholm?

托德：好吧，這真是愚蠢的問題。嗯，那你對斯德哥爾摩印象最深的是什么?

Ruth: Ah, they've got some really nice buildings in Stockholm. I've got relatives who live in Stockholm so we stayed with them, and also it was really hot when we went there, but it was also very pricey.

魯斯：啊，斯德哥爾摩的大樓非常漂亮。我有親戚在斯德哥爾摩生活，我們和他們住在一起，我們到那里的時候天氣非常熱，而且東西也很貴。

Todd: So in every store you went into were they playing ABBA?

托德：那你們?nèi)サ纳痰甓加胁シ虐秃铣獔F(tuán)的歌曲嗎?

Ruth: No. Thank goodness.

魯斯：沒有。真是謝天謝地。
