T: the May holiday is coming up soon. Are you planning on going on vacation?
E: I am. I just went to the travel agent’s and picked up these brochures.
T: where are you planning on going?
E: I fancy going to Tibet for a few days. Have you ever been there?
T: I went a long time ago, before they built the new train that can take you there.
E: would you recommend going there for a few days?
T: personally, I think it’d be better to go when you have more time. A few days isn’t really enough to get acclimatize yourself and to go on a few excursions outside of the capital.
E: you’re probably right. What do you think about Yangshuo?
T: it’s a beautiful city, but I think it’s become too touristy. How about going to a cosmopolitan city like Shanghai or Hong Kong?
E: I’d like to get away from the big city life.
T: maybe you should consider going to a hot springs resort outside of Beijing. I heard they are very relaxing.
E: I guess if I only have a few days, I should probably think about going somewhere that isn’t far away.
T: since the May holiday is the high season, you should probably call ahead to reserve a room. Here’s the phone number.
E: thanks; I’ll give them a call later.
五一的假期馬上就要到了。你打算去什么地方度假嗎?
是的,我剛剛?cè)ヂ眯猩缒昧诵┬麄鲉巍?/p>
你想去哪里?
我想去西藏呆幾天。你去過(guò)嗎?
好多年以前去過(guò),那時(shí)候還沒(méi)通火車呢,你現(xiàn)在可以坐火車去。
你覺(jué)得去那兒待幾天好嗎?
我個(gè)人覺(jué)得,你最好在時(shí)間充裕的時(shí)候去那邊。只是幾天的功夫還不夠你適應(yīng)高原氣候的呢,而且也不足以讓你游覽首府以外其它地方的景致。
你說(shuō)得很有道理。你覺(jué)得陽(yáng)朔怎么樣啊?
那是個(gè)很美麗的城市,不過(guò)我覺(jué)得有點(diǎn)開發(fā)過(guò)度了。去某個(gè)國(guó)際化的大都市怎么樣,比如香港或上海?
我想遠(yuǎn)離都市生活。
那也許你可以考慮北京郊區(qū)的溫泉景點(diǎn)。我聽(tīng)說(shuō)去那些地方會(huì)讓人感覺(jué)很放松。
我覺(jué)得如果只有幾天時(shí)間的話,我可能會(huì)考慮去一些不太遠(yuǎn)的地方。
鑒于五一假期是旅游旺季,你最好提前預(yù)定住宿的房間。這里有電話號(hào)碼。
謝謝,我一會(huì)兒就給他們打電話。
