Oh, that doesn't matter. Where is it? Margarita, in the south of Spain.
哦,没关系。在哪里?玛格丽塔,在西班牙南部。
The Hotel Fantastico is very quiet, only five minutes' walk to the sea, and it has a swimming pool.
那里的奇妙酒店坐落在非常安静的地方,步行五分钟就可以到海边,酒店还有游泳池。
Ooh, that's wonderful. Let's take it. Yes, let's! Can I pay for it now? And can we go tomorrow?
哇,太好了。我们就要这个吧。好啊,就这个!我可以现在付款,明天出发吗?
Of course. (She takes Mr Boggis's money and gives him two tickets.) Here are your tickets. Have a nice holiday! Goodbye!
当然。(她接过博吉斯先生的钱,给了他两张机票。)这是你们的机票。假日愉快!再见!
Thank you. Goodbye! (Mr and Mrs Boggis go out with their tickets. A man comes in and speaks to the audience. )
谢谢,再见!博吉斯夫妇拿着机票出去了。旁白上场,对观众讲话。旁白:
So, Mr and Mrs Boggis are going to have a wonderful holiday, are they? What do you think? Let's see, shall we?
这么说,博吉斯夫妇会有一个美妙的假期,是这样吗?你们怎么想的呢?让我们来看看吧。
It's now two weeks later. He goes off. Mr and Mrs Boggis come into the travel agent's office.
现在是两个星期后。旁白下场。博吉斯夫妇走进旅游经纪人的办公室。
Good morning. Can I help you? We're very angry about one of your holidays. To Margarita, it was.
早上好。有什么需要帮忙的吗?我们对你们出售的一个度假产品很生气,是去玛格丽塔的。
Ah, yes. Cheap, hot, and not very far away. Well, Margarita was OK, but the hotel was no good at all. It was quiet, you said.
啊,是这样。既便宜又热,而且不是很远。嗯,玛格丽塔还可以,可那酒店太糟糕了。你说那儿很安静。
Well, I did say that, yes. Well, the building was only half finished, so there were men at work day and night!
嗯,是的,我是这么说的。哦,那个酒店只盖好了一半,结果一天到晚都有人在施工!
There was a lot of noise. We couldn't sleep at all. And it had a swimming pool, you said.
吵死了。我们根本没法睡觉。而且你还说那儿有个游泳池。
Well, er, yes, perhaps I did say that. That was half finished, too. No water in it.
嗯,呃,是的,或许我是说过。那个也没有完工。里面根本没有水。
I see. Well— Five minutes' walk to the sea, you said. Perhaps it takes five minutes in a taxi.
我明白了。那一一你说从那儿步行五分钟就能到海边。或许坐出租车五分钟能到。
Not on foot, oh no! Oh dear. Well, I'm very sorry. Perhaps you'd like some of your money back?
走路可不行,哦,根本不可能!哦,天哪。好吧,我非常抱歉。或许你们想要退回一部分的钱?
No, we'd like another holiday now. Oh, yes, why not? How about two plane tickets to Australia?
不,我们现在想换一个度假产品。哦,可以,行。两张去澳大利亚的机票怎么样?
It's exciting, hot and very far away!
那里令人兴奋,天气炎热,而且非常遥远!
Ooh, wonderful! Let's take them. Here are your tickets, then. Have a nice holiday! They go out happily with their tickets.
哦,太好了!我们要了。这是你们的机票。假日愉快!他们拿着机票高兴地走了。
(Smiling) The tickets are only to Australia! Perhaps they're never going to come back!
(微笑)那是去澳大利亚的单程票!或许他们永远不会回来了!
