Telephonist: Good morning. Vane Theater, at your service.

Shirley: Hello. I'm thinking about watching a Chinese traditional opera with a foreign girl. What's on this weekend?

Telephonist: Well, there will be charity performance on Saturday night. And also, there will be a solo concert by an opera star on Sunday night.

Shirley: It's a good thing that I have choices here. Can you tell me about the one on Saturday?

Telephonist: Sure. It's to raise money for the homeless.

Shirley: What about the performance itself?

Telephonist: Oh, it's a reserved opera named “The Monkey Creates Havoc in Heaven”.

Shirley: Wow, a story about the clever Monkey King. It's a classic and children's favorite.

Telephonist: It surely is. And the cast is really the best.

Shirley: Wonderful! How much is the ticket?

Telephonist: The price varies according to the seats. 300 for the front, 200 for the middle, and 50 for the back. Which kind would you like?

Shirley: Two for the front. One last thing, are there any English subtitles for the show?

Telephonist: Yes, we have subtitles both in Chinese and English on the big-screen just beside the stage.

Shirley: Terrific. May I stop by to get that two tickets tomorrow afternoon?

Telephonist: Sure. And our theater is located on Liberty Avenue, just opposite the biggest guitar store. Can I have your name?

Shirley: Shirley. S-H-I-R-L-E-Y.

Telephonist: Got it. Thanks for calling. Bye.

聽看學(xué)

接線員：早上好。范恩劇院，愿為您效勞。

雪莉：你好。我打算和一個外國女孩看一場中國的傳統(tǒng)戲劇。這個周末上演什么劇？

接線員：嗯，周六晚上會有一場慈善演出，另外，周日晚上，有一位戲劇明星舉辦一場個人演唱會。

雪莉：真不錯，我還可以選擇。你可以給我介紹一下周六的那一場嗎？

接線員：當然可以。那是為無家可歸的人募捐而舉辦的。

雪莉：演出本身怎么樣？

接線員：哦，那是一場保留劇目，名叫“大鬧天宮”。

雪莉：哇，是關(guān)于聰明的猴王的故事。它是經(jīng)典之作，而且是孩子們的最愛。

接線員：的確如此。而且這次演出陣容的確很強大。

雪莉：太好了！票價是多少呢？

接線員：票價根據(jù)座位的不同而有所不同。前排的300，中間的200，后排的50。您要哪種？

雪莉：兩張前排的。還有一件事，這場演出會配有英文字幕嗎？

接線員：有的，舞臺旁邊的大屏幕上會同時呈現(xiàn)中文和英文字幕。

雪莉：真棒。我明天下午過來取票可以嗎？

接線員：沒問題。我們的劇院位于自由大街，就在那個最大的吉他商店的對面。請問您的姓名是？

雪莉：雪莉。S-H-I-R-L-E-Y.

接線員：知道了。謝謝您打電話預(yù)定。再見。
