Mari: This week's theme is comparing cities. Mike, you've lived in both Florida and Hawaii, and both of these places, people go there on vacation, so can you compare the weather?
马里：本周的谈话主题是城市对比。迈克，你在佛罗里达和夏威夷生活过，人们很喜欢去这两个地方度假，你能比较一下这两个地方的天气情况吗？
Mike: Well, actually both places are warm most of the year. Well, actually Hawaii is warm all year. But I would say that Hawaii's weather is probably better than Florida because the weather in Hawaii is not as extreme as it is in Florida and... so where as the temperatures in Florida would range from fifty degree to ninety degrees, in Hawaii it would stay between seventy-five and eighty-five degrees most of the year.
迈克：好，其实这两个地方在一年中大部分时间都很温暖。准确地说，夏威夷一年到头都很温暖。我认为夏威夷的天气好于佛罗里达，因为夏威夷没有像佛罗里达那样的极端天气，佛罗里达的气温在55华氏度至90华氏度之间，而夏威夷大部分时间的气温在75华氏度至85华氏度之间。
Mari: Wow. That's really nice weather. How about the food?
马里：哇。那真是很好的天气状况。食物呢？
Mike: Well the food, in both places are really good but it's quite different. Both places of course you can get good American food, like burgers and that type of thing, but in Florida you get a lot of foods such as Cuban food or Jamaican food which is really good that you can't get in Hawaii, but in Hawaii there's a lot of Asian influence so you can get really good Japanese food or Thai food, but also traditional Polynesian food as well.
迈克：两个地方的食物都很美味，不过有很大不同。在这两个地方都能吃到汉堡之类的美国美食，佛罗里达有很多在夏威夷吃不到的古巴美食和牙买加美食，而夏威夷因为受亚洲影响，有很多日本美食和泰国美食，当然也有传统的波利尼西亚美食。
Mari: Wow. Sounds yummy. How about the shopping?
马里：哇。听上去都很好吃。购物呢？
Mike: Well, the shopping varies between both places. Florida is a lot cheaper than Hawaii. Food shopping as well as clothing and that sort of thing. I guess in Hawaii everything has to be shipped over so it's a little bit more expensive.
迈克：这两个地方的购物情况有所不同。佛罗里达的物价比夏威夷便宜很多。食品价格和衣服价格都便宜很多。我想可能是因为夏威夷的物品要用船运过去，所以价格会贵一些。
Mari: I didn't know that. How about the night life?
马里：这点我不知道。那夜生活呢？
Mike: The night life in both places are really good. Hawaii has a lot of clubs if you like that type of thing and Florida of course has a lot of clubs if you like that type of thing, but there's also good bars or just movies and shows in both places.
迈克：两个地方的夜生活都很丰富。夏威夷有很多俱乐部，如果你喜欢俱乐部那夏威夷是个好去处，当然佛罗里达也有很多俱乐部，另外这两个地方都有很棒的酒吧、电影院和剧院。
Mari: If you could live in one place, where would you live?
马里：如果让你在这两个地方里选一个地方生活，你会选择哪里？
Mike: I would choose to live in Hawaii. Well, I'm from Hawaii so I have a bias towards it, but I think Hawaii would be better between the two places for me.
迈克：我会选择在夏威夷生活。我来自夏威夷，所以我肯定更偏爱夏威夷一些，另外我认为就这两个地方来说，夏威夷更适合我。
