On a Bus
在公共汽车上
In cities, buses have letters or
numbers indicating their routes. Usually the exact
fare is required because you can't get
change on a bus. Long-distance travel by bus is
common throughout the United States and
Canada. It is an inexpensive, scenic way to
travel. Special tickets for unlimited
travel are sometimes offered by the larger bus
co
mpanies.
A: Does this bus go to the train
station?
B: No, You'll have to get off
at the bank and take the A52.
A: How
long is the ride?
B: About ten
minutes.
A: Is this the bus for Park Ridge?
B: No. It only goes as far as Main
Street, but you can get the Number 31 there.
A: How long does it take to get there?
B: It only takes a few minutes.
A: Does this
bus go to the beach?
B: No. You're
going the wrong way. You want the Number11. It
stops in front of the
post office.
A: About how long does it take?
B: Only fifteen minutes.
A
:
Is this the
right bus for Pacific Boulevard?
B:
No. You should have taken the Yellow Line bus. You
can get one at the next stop.
A: Is it
long ride?
B: Not that long.
Asking Favors
求助
When you ask for things,
it is important to be polite. The intonation that
you use
in making your request is as
important as what you actually say. When you think
som
eone will refuse your request, you
can ask the question in such a way that the
refusal d
oes not cause embarrassment.
A:
Is there any chance of my borrowing your type-
writer?
B: For how long?
A: Until the end of the week.
B: Yes, I guess that would be all
right.
A:
Would you mind if I borrowed your car?
B: Well, when exactly?
A:
Until Monday or Tuesday of next week.
B: I'm sorry, but it's just not possible.
A: Do you think you could lend me some
of your records?
B: Until when?
A: Oh, just over the holidays.
B: I'm not sure. I'll have to think
about it.
A: I was wondering if you'd let me stay
with you for a few days.
B: It really
depends on when.
A: Until next
weekend, if that's OK.
B: Let me think
it over, and I'll let you know later.
