We have a steamship that takes passengers out several times a day - it's over 100 years old.

我们有一艘汽船，一天带好几拨游客——这艘船已经100多岁了。

And don't forget to take pictures of the mountains.

They're all around you when you're on the boat and they look fantastic.

VISITOR: OK. And I assume there's a café or something on board?

参观者：好的。船上应该有咖啡厅之类的地方吧？

TC EMPLOYEE: Sure. How old are your children?

员工：当然。How old are your children?

VISITOR: Er, my daughter's fifteen and my son's seven.

参观者：呃，我女儿15岁，儿子7岁。

TC EMPLOYEE: Right. Well there are various things you can do once you've crossed the lake, to make a day of it.

员工：嗯。那到了湖对岸有很多活动您可以选择，这样就能玩一天了。

One thing that's very popular is a visit to the Country Farm.

有个很流行的项目是参观乡间农场。

You're met off the boat by the farmer and he'll take you to the holding pens, where the sheep are kept.

Children love feeding them!

He really likes animals.

TC EMPLOYEE: Well, there's also a 40-minute trek round the farm on a horse, if he wants.

VISITOR: Do you think he'd manage it?

参观者： 你觉得他能行吗？

He hasn't done that before.

他可从来没骑过马。

TC EMPLOYEE: Sure. It's suitable for complete beginners.

员工： 当然可以。这个项目也适合新手。

VISITOR: Ah, good.

参观者：嗯，好的。

TC EMPLOYEE: And again, visitors are welcome to explore the farm on their own, as long as they take care to close gates and so on.

员工：此外，农场也欢迎游客们自己在农场里转悠，只要他们关好门、多注意就行。

There are some very beautiful gardens along the side of the lake which also belong to the farm - they'll be just at their best now.

沿湖还有一些非常漂亮的花园，也是属于农场的——现在正是它们最美的时候。

You could easily spend an hour or two there.

您轻轻松松就能在里面待上一两个小时。

VISITOR: OK. Well that all sounds good.

参观者： 好的。嗯听起来不错。

And can we get lunch there?

我们能在那吃午饭吗？

TC EMPLOYEE: You can, and it's very good, though it's not included in the basic cost.

员工：可以的，而且午餐非常好，不过餐费不包括在基本费用之内。

You pay when you get there.

吃午饭得另付。

VISITOR: Right.

参观者：好的。

VISITOR: So is there anything else to do over on that side of the lake?

参观者：到了对岸还有什么别的事可以做吗？

TC EMPLOYEE: Well, what you can do is take a bike over on the ship and then go on a cycling trip.

员工：您还可以带上自行车坐船过去，然后在对岸骑行。

There's a trail there called the Back Road - you could easily spend three or four hours exploring it, and the scenery's wonderful.

那边有条小径，叫Back Road——骑行三四个小时肯定没问题，那里风景特别好。

They'll give you a map when you get your ticket for the cruise - there's no extra charge.

买船票的时候，他们会给你一张地图——地图是免费的。

VISITOR: What's the trail like in terms of difficulty?

参观者： 那条路在骑行难度方面怎么样？

TC EMPLOYEE: Quite challenging in places.

员工：有的地方挺难骑的。

It wouldn't be suitable for your seven-year-old.

不适合您7岁的儿子。

It needs someone who's got a bit more experience.

在那骑车需要点经验才行。

VISITOR: Hmm. Well, my daughter loves cycling and so do I, so maybe the two of us could go, and my wife and son could stay on the farm.

参观者：嗯。我女儿喜欢骑自行车，我也是，我们两个去骑车，我的妻子和儿子可以留在农场。

That might work out quite well.

这样安排应该挺好。

But we don't have bikes here... is there somewhere we could rent them?

但是我们没有自行车……有什么地方可以租车吗？

TC EMPLOYEE: Yes, there's a place here in the city.

员工：嗯，城里有个地方可以租。

It's called Ratchesons.

那儿叫做Ratchesons。

VISITOR: I'll just make a note of that - er, how do you spell it?

参观者： 我记一下——呃，那个地名怎么拼？

TC EMPLOYEE: R-A-T-C-H-E-S-O-N-S.

员工： R-A-T-C-H-E-S-O-N-S。

It's just by the cruise ship terminal.

就在游船终点站附近。

VISITOR: OK.

参观者：好的。

TC EMPLOYEE: You'd also need to pick up a repair kit for the bike from there to take along with you, and you'd need to take along a snack and some water - it'd be best to get those in the city.

员工：你们还得在那带上一个自行车修理包， 还需要带点零食和水——在城里准备这些是最好的。

VISITOR: Fine. That shouldn't be a problem.

参观者： 好的。没问题。

And I assume I can rent a helmet from the bike place?

我想租车的地方能租到头盔吧？

TC EMPLOYEE: Sure, you should definitely get that.

员工：当然，您一定能租到的。

It's a great ride, but you want to be well prepared because it's very remote - you won't see any shops round there, or anywhere to stay, so you need to get back in time for the last boat.

那条骑行的路很棒，但你们得做好准备，因为那条路很偏远。那附近没有商店，也没有可以停留的地方，所以你们得及时回来赶上最后一班船。

VISITOR: Yeah. So what sort of prices are we looking at here?

参观者： 好。那这趟旅程得花多少钱呢？

TC EMPLOYEE: Let's see, that'd be one adult and one child for the cruise with farm tour, that's $117, and an adult and a child for the cruise only so that's $214 dollars altogether.

员工：我来看看，一个大人、一个小孩乘船游加上农场游是117美元，加上一个大人、一个小孩乘船游，一共是214美元。

Oh, wait a minute, how old did you say your daughter was?

啊，等一下，您的女儿多大来着？

VISITOR: Fifteen.

参观者：15岁。

TC EMPLOYEE: Then I'm afraid it's $267 because she has to pay the adult fare, which is $75 instead of the child fare which is $22 - sorry about that.

员工：那恐怕就得267美元了，因为她得买75美元的成人票，而不是22美元的儿童票——不好意思。

VISITOR: That's OK. Er, so how do …

参观者：没关系。所以怎么……
