今天的这段对话，在讨论问路，
去霍尔顿火车站怎么走？从这里到机场的路线是什么
来听今天的讲解:
Beginner
A: excuse me, can you tell me the way to Holton railway station?
对不起，你能告诉我去霍尔顿火车站的路吗？
B: sure. It’s quite far from here. Don’t worry, though. It’s not difficult to get there.
当然。离这里很远。不过别担心。去那里并不难。
A: I think I’m going in the wrong direction, aren’t?
我想我走错了方向，不是吗？
B: yes. First, you need to turn around. Do you remember passing some traffic lights further up this road?
是的。首先，你需要转弯。你还记得在这条路上再往前经过一些红绿灯吗？
A: yes, I do. They are about two miles away, right?
是的，我知道。他们大约在两英里外，对吧？
B: that’s right. Drive back to the traffic rights and turn right. Follow the road for about a mile, until you see the plaza hotel. It’s a really big hotel. You can’t miss it. Turn left at the hotel.
是的。开车回到交通路口，然后右转。沿着这条路走大约一英里，直到你看到广场酒店。这是一家非常大的酒店。你不会错过的。在酒店左转。
A: so, right at the traffic lights two miles up the road, then left at the plaza hotel, a mile along that road. Got it.
所以，在两英里外的红绿灯处右转，然后在广场酒店左转，沿着那条路走一英里。明白了。
B: then you just go straight on until you see the station ahead of you.
然后你一直往前走，直到你看到前方的车站。
A: ok. Got it. Thanks for you help.
好的。明白了。谢谢你的帮助。
B: no problem.
没问题。
Intermediate
A: ok, I’ve got an up-to-day map. Let’s check the route from here to the airport.
好的，我有一张最新的地图。让我们查一下从这里到机场的路线。
B: where are we? Oh, here we are. So we drive to the A120 and turn left.
我们在哪里？哦，我们到了。所以我们开车到A120然后左转。
A: no, we turn right. Remember that we are coming from this direction.
不，我们向右转。记住我们是从这个方向来的。
B: oh yes! Sorry! Then we drive to the M11 motorway.
哦，是的！对不起！然后我们驱车前往M11高速公路。
A: how far is that?
那有多远？
B: it’s only seven miles. We turn left to join the motorway and drive south.
只有七英里。我们左转进入高速公路向南行驶。
A: according to the map, we get off the M11 at the second junction and join the M25. that’s the motorway that goes around the edge of London.
根据地图，我们在第二个路口下M11，然后加入M25。那是环绕伦敦边缘的高速公路。
B: that’s another 15 miles, so that’s 22 miles total so far.
这又是15英里，所以到目前为止总共是22英里。
A: then we drive west on the M25. we must be careful to turn in the right direction!
然后我们沿着M25向西行驶。我们必须小心向右转弯！
B: then we drive on the M25. it turns south. When we reach exit 15, we turn left and go west along the M4.
然后我们开M25。它向南转弯。当我们到达15号出口时，我们左转，沿着M4向西走。
A: then we take the first Heathrow Airport. What’s the total distance?
然后我们走第一个希思罗机场。总距离是多少？
B: the journey around the M25 is 33 miles and then 3 extra miles to get to the airport. So how many miles is that together?
绕M25的路程是33英里，然后再多走3英里才能到达机场。那么总共有多少英里呢？
A: 22 miles to the M25, 33 miles on the M25, and 3 after that. That’s a total of 58 miles, isn’t it?
到M25有22英里，M25有33英里，之后还有3英里。总共58英里，不是吗？
B: it shouldn’t take us very long to cover that distance. Remember that we can go quite fast on the motor way.
我们走那么远应该不会花很长时间。记住，我们在机动车道上可以走得很快。
A: we can only go fast on the motor ways if there isn’t much traffic. I think we should allow ourselves plenty of time to get there. Being early is much better than being late.
只有在交通不多的情况下，我们才能在机动车道上快速行驶。我认为我们应该给自己充足的时间去那里。早一点总比晚一点好。
