　　Dialogue 情景对话

　　Xiaowang: Do you have anything forgotten in the hotel?

　　小王：你们没有东西落在酒店吧？

　　Belinda: I don’t think so.

　　贝琳达：应该没有。

　　Xiaowang: Alright. Time to go. Did you have a good time here in Changsha?

　　小王：那就好，该出发了。在长沙玩得开心吗？

　　Alex: Yes. The conference went well. And we really love the people, food and scenery here.

　　艾利克斯：开心。会议进行得很顺利。这里的人、食物和风景我们都很喜欢！

　　Belinda: That’s right. We have had a great time here. I’m going to miss Changsha so much.

　　贝琳达：是呀，我们玩得很开心，肯定会很想念这里的。

　　Xiaowang: Did you learn some Hunan dialect?

　　小王：你们有没有学会什么湖南方言？

　　Belinda: Ha-ha, of course. Ni qia fan da bu?

　　贝琳达：哈哈哈，当然啦。你恰饭哒不？（你吃饭了没？）

　　Xiaowang: Ha-ha, that’s so vivid! What’s the most impressive part for you?

　　小王：哈哈哈，还挺像的呢！那给你们留下印象最深的是什么呢？

　　Alex: Hard to tell. A lot of memories here. Stinky tofu is not bad. The food here are spicy but really delicious. And of course, the people here are very friendly to us .

　　艾利克斯：很难说呀，有太多回忆了。臭豆腐不错，长沙菜有点儿辣，但真的好吃。还有，长沙人对我们都很友好。

　　Xiaowang: Thank you so much.

　　小王：谢谢你的夸奖啦。

　　Belinda: And I have never imagined a bus could be that fast. Are the busdrivers here former professional racing drivers?

　　贝琳达：而且我从来没想到公交车可以开得这么快。这里的公交司机是不是都是退役车手呀？

　　Xiaowang: No, they are just kind-hearted and they want to send the passengers in time.

　　小王：不不不，他们很热心的，只是想把乘客及时送到目的地。

　　Belinda: Anyway, I love this place.

　　贝琳达：反正还是很爱这座城市。

　　Xiaowang: Have you bought anything for your family and friends?

　　小王：你们有带什么东西给家人和朋友吗？

　　小王：美女们，我们到啦。我帮你们拿箱子吧，你们可以再检查一下，看看有没有东西落在车上。

　　Alex: We’re all good. Thank you very much!
