Sarah: Hi, Todd.
萨拉：嗨，托德。
Todd: Hey, Sarah. How are you?
托德：嘿，萨拉。你好吗？
Sarah: Good. How are you?
萨拉：我很好。你呢？
Todd: Not bad.
托德：还不错。
Sarah: So I heard you are from San Francisco.
萨拉：我听说你来自旧金山。
Todd: That's right. Yeah, I was born there and I lived in the city for many years.
托德：没错。我出生在旧金山，而且在那座城市生活了很多年。
Sarah: Cool. What is the most interesting thing about your city?
萨拉：真酷。你认为旧金山最有意思的地方是什么？
Todd: Well, San Francisco has many interesting things, but the most interesting thing is probably the architecture. There's lots of very unique buildings. And the most unique building is probably the Trans-America building. It's a building like a pyramid. It's nice.
托德：旧金山有很多有趣的事情，不过最有意思的应该是建筑。旧金山有很多独特的建筑。最独特的建筑应该是泛美大楼。那座大楼很像金字塔。非常不错。
Sarah: Well, that's really cool.
萨拉：嗯，那真酷。
Todd: Uh-hmm.
托德：嗯。
Sarah: What is the most expensive area in San Francisco?
萨拉：那旧金山最昂贵的地段是哪里？
Todd: Well, it is very, very expensive. The most expensive area is a place called Pacific Heights, and it's on the highest hill in San Francisco and it overlooks the Bay. It's a really, really beautiful place.
托德：旧金山的物价非常高。最贵的地区是太平洋高地，那里位于旧金山最高的山上，可以俯瞰旧金山湾。那是一个非常非常漂亮的地方。
Sarah: Hmm.
萨拉：嗯。
Todd: That area by far has the best views of the city.
托德：那是整个旧金山市视野最好的地区。
Sarah: Hmm, what is the most beautiful place in San Francisco?
萨拉：嗯，那旧金山最美丽的地方在哪里？
Todd: Well, actually the most beautiful place is outside the city. It's a place called Muir Woods. And it has the tallest trees in the world, and some of these trees are really old. They are the oldest trees in North America. Some of them are over 2,000 years old.
托德：其实最漂亮的地方在郊外。那个地方名为穆尔森林。那里有世界上最高的树，还有很多非常古老的树。那些树是北美洲最老的树。一些树的年龄已经超过2000岁了。
Sarah: Wow. It sounds like some place I would like to see. So it sounds really expensive. Where is the cheapest place to live?
萨拉：哇哦。听起来那是我想去游览的地方。而且听上去确实很贵。那生活成本最便宜的地方是哪里？
Todd: The cheapest place to live is a place called Sunset. And Sunset is on the west side, and the houses are kind of old and they're a little bit cheap. But one thing about Sunset is it has nicest view of the ocean, and you could watch the sunset every night. That's why it's called the Sunset area.
托德：生活成本最便宜的地方是日落区。日落区位于旧金山西部，那里的房子很老，相对便宜一些。日落区拥有最棒的海景，你可以每晚观赏日落。那也是日落区得名的原因。
Sarah: Hmm. If I wanted to go there, when is the best time to visit?
萨拉：嗯。如果我想去那里游玩，那什么时候是最佳时间？
Todd: Well, the best time is probably in the fall because that's when the weather is the nicest. It's not too cold, and it's not too hot. And it doesn't rain that much.
托德：最佳游玩时间是秋天，因为那时的天气是最好的。不冷也不热。雨水也不多。
Sarah: So when would be the worst time to visit?
萨拉：那最差的游览时间是什么时候？
Todd: The worst time to visit would be probably February and March, because February and March are the coldest and wettest months. So – well, March isn't that cold but sometimes it's wet, so it rains a lot.
托德：最糟糕的游玩时间是2月和3月，因为2月和2月是最冷最潮湿的时间。3月不太冷，可是很潮湿，雨水很多。
Sarah: Wow. That sounds really great. I want to go there.
萨拉：哇哦。听上去很不错。我想去那里玩。
Todd: Yeah, you should. It's great place.
托德：好啊，你应该去看看。那是个很棒的地方。
