第二十四講: 退房
Lesson 24: Checking Out (continued)
各位聽(tīng)眾朋友,歡迎您收聽(tīng)“旅游業(yè)英語(yǔ)”。我是澳大利亞澳洲廣播電臺(tái)中文部的節(jié)目主持人馬健媛。在上一講中我們學(xué)習(xí)了如何禮貌地詢(xún)問(wèn)客人誰(shuí)來(lái)付帳單以及如何逐項(xiàng)為客人解釋帳單上的帳目。在這一講中,我們要學(xué)習(xí)當(dāng)帳單上出現(xiàn)錯(cuò)誤時(shí)應(yīng)該如何應(yīng)對(duì)和向客人告別時(shí)所使用的英語(yǔ)句型。現(xiàn)在讓我們學(xué)習(xí)新的對(duì)話(huà)內(nèi)容,請(qǐng)?zhí)貏e注意新的生詞與句型。
Jack: Leo, I have a query. This amount, under newspapers.
Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem.
Leo: You’ve been charged for the local newspaper.
Jack: But Leo, I never ordered a local paper. I can’t read Chinese you see.
Leo: You’re quite right.
Leo: I’m terribly sorry about that.
Leo: I’ll fix it right away.
Leo: There, problem fixed.
Jack: Thanks.
以上就是我們今天要學(xué)習(xí)的部份內(nèi)容,您聽(tīng)懂了多少呢?好,讓我們?cè)俾?tīng)一遍錄音,我會(huì)將每句話(huà)的內(nèi)容譯成中文。杰克: 利奧,我有個(gè)問(wèn)題。請(qǐng)問(wèn)這個(gè)在報(bào)紙項(xiàng)目下的款項(xiàng)是怎么回事呢?
Jack: Leo, I have a query. This amount, under newspapers.
利奧: 哦,我明白了。這是向您收取的當(dāng)?shù)貓?bào)紙的費(fèi)用。
Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem. You’ve been charged for the local
newspaper.
杰克: 但是,利奧,你知道我從來(lái)也沒(méi)有定過(guò)當(dāng)?shù)氐膱?bào)紙啊,我根本不懂中文呀。
Jack: But Leo, I never ordered a local paper. I can’t read Chinese you
see.

利奧: 您說(shuō)得很對(duì)。出了這樣的錯(cuò)誤我真的很抱歉。我立刻就改正這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。
Leo: You’re quite right. I’m terribly sorry about that. I’ll fix it right
away.
利奧: 好了,改過(guò)來(lái)了。
Leo: There, problem fixed.
杰克: 謝謝你。
Jack: Thanks.
在以前的課文中我們學(xué)習(xí)過(guò)如何在餐館里向客人解釋帳單的明細(xì)帳目。現(xiàn)在讓我們?cè)賹W(xué)習(xí)一些新的處理這種情況時(shí)會(huì)用到的句型。
Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem. You’ve been charged for the local newspaper.
在這句話(huà)中,利奧一下子就發(fā)現(xiàn)了錯(cuò)誤的原因,那就是帳單上列出了一項(xiàng)當(dāng)?shù)貓?bào)紙的費(fèi)用,可實(shí)際的情況是杰克從來(lái)沒(méi)有定過(guò)這份報(bào)紙,因?yàn)樗揪筒欢形?。在這句話(huà)中,利奧用了這樣的說(shuō)法: Isee the problem, 我明白了。。。另外,利奧還說(shuō)you’ve been charged for …這是向您收取的。。費(fèi)用。不知您是否還記得,在以前的課文中,當(dāng)蒙納對(duì)她的帳單產(chǎn)生疑問(wèn)時(shí),利奧曾經(jīng)使用過(guò)這樣的短語(yǔ): that’s for …..這是。。。的費(fèi)用。完整的句子是That’s for the dry cleaning. 這是干洗的費(fèi)用。好現(xiàn)在讓我們跟著英語(yǔ)老師一起來(lái)練習(xí)這些句型。
I see the problem.
I see the problem.
You’ve been charged for the newspaper.
That’s for the newspaper.
You’ve been charged for the dry cleaning.
That’s for the dry cleaning.
現(xiàn)在讓我們一起來(lái)聽(tīng)聽(tīng)利奧在確認(rèn)杰克的帳單出現(xiàn)問(wèn)題時(shí)是怎么說(shuō)的。
利奧: 您說(shuō)的很對(duì)。
Leo: You’re quite right.

利奧: 出了這樣的錯(cuò)誤我真的很抱歉。
Leo: I’m terribly sorry about that.
利奧: 我立刻就改正這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。
Leo: I’ll fix it right away.
利奧: 好了,改過(guò)來(lái)了。
Leo: There, problem fixed.
我們?cè)?jīng)在第七講中學(xué)習(xí)過(guò)sorry, 對(duì)不起,這個(gè)詞匯的用法。所以在這里我就不重復(fù)了。不過(guò)我要提醒各位的是在英語(yǔ)中道歉并不一定表示錯(cuò)誤的原因在你,我們說(shuō)sorry 的用意更多的是在于就給客人帶來(lái)的不便表示一種歉意。請(qǐng)跟著老師練習(xí)下列句子。
You’re quite right.
I’m terribly sorry about that.
I’ll fix it right away.
There, problem fixed.
好,現(xiàn)在讓我們?cè)俾?tīng)一遍這部份對(duì)話(huà)的錄音。請(qǐng)?jiān)诶麏W的句子之后重復(fù)他的話(huà)。
Jack: Leo, I have a query. This amount, under newspapers.
Leo: Ah yes. I see the problem.
Leo: You’ve been charged for the local newspaper.
Jack: But Leo, I never ordered a local paper. I can’t read Chinese you see.
Leo: You’re quite right.
Leo: I’m terribly sorry about that.
Leo: I’ll fix it right away.
Leo: There, problem fixed.
Jack: Thanks.
