埃德里安娜：莉莎，你是加拿大人，對吧?

Lisa: I am. I'm a very proud Canadian.

莉莎：對，我為身為加拿大人而自豪。

Adrienne: And, I believe you're from Montreal.

埃德里安娜：我記得你來自蒙特利爾。

Lisa: I am.

莉莎：對。

Adrienne: Can you tell me a little about your hometown?

埃德里安娜：請你談談你的故鄉(xiāng)好嗎?

Lisa: Sure. Montreal is a big city for Canadian standards located in Eastern Canada. It is in the province of Quebec, which is one of the biggest provinces in Canada. It has a population, or Montreal has a population, of three million people and it is a city that was founded by the French and has always maintained its French roots, so that in Montreal today, it is a perfect blend of European French influences with English speaking from the rest of Canada culture, so in Quebec people are bilingual; they speak English and French, and you can, when you go traveling in Montreal, and you speak to someone first in English, they will reply to you in English, or if you start a conversation in French they will reply to you in French.

莉莎：當然可以。蒙特利爾在加拿大是座大城市，位于加拿大東部。準確的說蒙特利爾位于魁北克省，魁北克省是加拿大最大的省之一。蒙特利爾的人口有三百萬左右，是法國人建立的城市，所以保留了法國傳統(tǒng)，現(xiàn)在的蒙特利爾將來自歐洲的法語和加拿大其他地方的英語完美的融合在一起，所以魁北克省是雙語省;那里的人們既說英語也說法語，去蒙特利爾旅行時，如果你說英語，那對方就會用英語回答你，如果你用法語開始對話，那他們就會用法語回答你。

Adrienne: Well, what's interesting to do in Montreal?

埃德里安娜：蒙特利爾有什么有趣的休閑活動嗎?

Lisa: Montreal is just so fabulous.

莉莎：蒙特利爾非常不錯。

Adrienne: Let's talk about daytime. What can you do during the day in Montreal?

埃德里安娜：我們來談談白天的活動吧。白天時在蒙特利爾能做些什么?

Lisa: It's not only about daytime, but also what season we're talking about, so let's start off with summer first, because summer in Montreal is probably the nicest season to go. Starting with festivals that happen in Montreal, there are three major festivals where we get people from all over the world coming into the city. The first festival is called Juste pour rire , which is "just for laughs". It's a comedy festival. It started in Montreal and has now attracted talent from all over the world. There are comedy shows going on. There's also outdoor events, and you can sometimes see that Juste pour rire or just for laughs videos, when you're riding in airplanes. They have it before movies come on. There's also the Jazz festival where all over downtown Montreal you have Jazz, free jazz concerts or paid jazz concerts in all the different areas, all the different stadiums or concert halls.

莉莎：不應該僅僅談白天，我們應該從季節(jié)角度來說，我們先說夏天吧，因為去蒙特利爾旅行的最佳時間是夏季。我們先來談談蒙特利爾的節(jié)日，蒙特利爾有三大重要節(jié)日，屆時全世界的人都會來蒙特利爾參加慶?；顒?。第一個節(jié)日是嘻笑節(jié)，這是個喜劇節(jié)日。這個節(jié)日起源于蒙特利爾，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)吸引了世界各地的喜劇天才來參加活動。嘻笑節(jié)會有許多喜劇表演，也會有許多戶外活動舉辦，有時在飛機上也能看到一些嘻笑節(jié)的視頻。在放電影之前，通常會放一些嘻笑節(jié)的視頻。另外一個節(jié)日是爵士音樂節(jié)，蒙特利爾各地、各個場館以及各個音樂廳都會舉辦爵士樂演出，包括免費爵士演出和售票爵士演出。

Adrienne: Oh, very interesting.

埃德里安娜：哦，真有意思。
