實(shí)戰(zhàn)口語(yǔ)情景對(duì)話：Livable Locations 宜居地點(diǎn)

Mari: Hey, Mike, so we live in the countryside, and we go to school up on a mountain. Could you see yourself living here?

馬里：嗨，邁克，我們現(xiàn)在在鄉(xiāng)村生活，去學(xué)校的話要翻過(guò)一座山。你怎么看在這里的生活?

Mike: Well, I do really like living in the country, but I don't think I could stay here for a long period of time, even though I do like staying here for the period that we are here now.

邁克：我非常喜歡鄉(xiāng)村生活，不過(guò)我想我不會(huì)在這里生活太長(zhǎng)時(shí)間，不過(guò)我很喜歡我們?cè)谶@里生活的這段時(shí)間。

Mari: Where do you want to live?

馬里：你想在哪里生活?

Mike: Well, I've never lived in a big city, so I think that I would like to try to live in a big city.

邁克：我從沒(méi)在大城市生活過(guò)，所以我想嘗試一下大城市的生活。

Mari: Like which one?

馬里：比如哪座城市?

Mike: Possibly one like New York or London. I think, I've always seen it on TV and I've always wanted to try to live there but I've never, so I think that would probably be really interesting.

邁克：紐約或倫敦這樣的大城市。我經(jīng)常在電視上看到這樣的大城市，我一直想嘗試一下大城市的生活，我沒(méi)有在大城市生活過(guò)，所以我想那會(huì)非常有趣的。

Mari: What attracts you to those cities?

馬里：這些城市有什么吸引你的地方?

Mike: I guess just the diversity that you might find or just the fact that so much stuff is going on in the city. I might like to see how that lifestyle is.

邁克：我想是那種多樣性，還有城市里發(fā)生的各種各樣的事情。我想看看那種生活方式是什么樣子的。

Mari: Sounds cool.

馬里：聽起來(lái)很酷。

Mike: What about you?

邁克：你呢?

Mari: I couldn't see myself living here in the long-term. I grew up in two really big cities so... and I've moved around a lot and... so in the future, I think I just want to stay in one place.

馬里：我想我以后不會(huì)生活在這里。我在兩個(gè)大城市長(zhǎng)大，我經(jīng)常搬家，所以以后我想定居在一個(gè)地方。

Mike: What types of cities?

邁克：哪種城市呢?

Mari: I guess a big city in Japan. My parents live here, so I feel like I'm more inclined to live here. My brother lives in the States and so if we both lived in the United States, I think my parents would feel a little bit lonely so I feel more inclined to live in Japan.

馬里：我想應(yīng)該是日本的大城市。我父母生活在日本，所以我傾向于在日本生活。我哥哥住在美國(guó)，如果我們都住在美國(guó)，那我父母會(huì)感到孤獨(dú)的，所以我傾向于在日本生活。

Mike: Which city in Japan would you like?

邁克：你想住在日本的哪座城市?

Mari: My parents live near Osaka. I grew up in Tokyo. I'm thinking maybe like Kobe. I think that... I like Kobe a lot because it's like an international port city, or originally it was. We have the ocean, the water, and the mountain and it just seems like a very cosmopolitan city to me in Japan.

馬里：我父母住在大阪附近。我在東京長(zhǎng)大。我想我會(huì)在神戶生活。我非常喜歡神戶，因?yàn)樯駪羰菄?guó)際港口城市。神戶有大海、有高山，對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)那里是日本的國(guó)際大都市。
