新视野大学英语视听说教程第四册 Unit 7 Task 1 SAMPLE DIALOG

Qiang: I see you’re reading travel brochures. Planning a holiday trip somewhere?

Li: Once the warms up. I get itchy feet. I think about going places.

Qiang: Will this be a trip abroad or some excursion close to home?

Li: I prefer going abroad. We’ve never visited a foreign country before.

Qiang: What countries are advertised in the brochure?

Li: Two overseas tours are offered during summer vacation. One is to a nearby country like Korea or Japan, and the other is to European countries.

Qiang: Which tour do you prefer?

Li: I’d like to go and see Korea. It’s close to China so that the tour is less expensive.

Qiang: I prefer to spend our savings on the European tour. We can see very different people and architecture, enjoy different food, and appreciate different customs.

Li: All right. You convince me. They say variety’s the spice of life. But shall we take a long tour or a whirlwind tour that allow us only a few hours in each place?

Qiang: In a long tour we can look around and not feel rushed, but it’s too expensive. So let’s take a whirlwind tour. That’s what we can afford.

Li: I agree. A whirlwind tour allows us to visit many important places we’ve heard and read so much about. That’s good enough for us.

Qiang: Right on.
