韋博英語口語班_十句簡單實用的問路英語

1、韋博英語口語培訓(xùn)班，十句簡單實用的問路英語你知道怎樣用地道的美式口語翻譯這段話嗎？“ 走這條單行道，在第一個紅綠燈時左轉(zhuǎn)， 那里就是 Hemphill Ave。 是一條雙線道。往下走， 你會在你的左邊看到一個加油站， 繼續(xù)走50 碼， 直到看到一個三叉路口， 右轉(zhuǎn)， 經(jīng)過二個 stop sign。你就會碰到 Wal Mart， 郵局就在 Wal Mart 的對面。而楊先生的家呢？ 郵局后面就是啦?！?以下可以作為參考：1. Take the one-way street. 走這條單行道。One-way street就是單行道. 尤其在 Downtown 地區(qū)， 以亞特蘭大和紐奧良為例， 其復(fù)雜

2、的程度可以用進(jìn)的去， 出不來來形容， 實在不是個愉快的開車經(jīng)驗。2. You will stay on the street for a while until you hit the first traffic light。你會走一會兒， 直到你遇到第一個紅綠燈。Stay for a while 通常指五到十分鐘的時間， 不會太久. 遇見某樣?xùn)|西， 可以用 hit 這個字，如 hit the traffic light, hit the stop sign 等等. 而 traffic light 也有人說成 light, 或 stoplight。3. Then take a left. 向左

3、轉(zhuǎn)。向左轉(zhuǎn)可以說成 turn left, take a left 或是 make a left. 有時光講 take a left 不明確， 你可以加上路名， 明確地告訴人家要轉(zhuǎn)哪一條路， 例如 Take a left into Hemphill Ave. 或是 Take a left onto Hemphill Ave。4. It will be Hemphill Ave. Its two-lane traffic.那就會是 Hemphill Ave, 它是一條雙線道。指路的時候如果能夠說出街道名稱是最好，所以通常我會把轉(zhuǎn)到哪一條路的路名也指出來.至于是幾線道一般指路的時候則比較不會提及.

4、雙線道是指來去各一個車道共二線道而言，四線道就是 four-lane traffic. 像亞特蘭大的 Interstate Highway 有些地方都是十二線道， 那就是 twelve-lane traffice 夠驚人吧。5. Come down Hemphill Ave about five blocks.由 Hemphill 街往下走約五個 blocks。英文這個部份跟中文有異曲同工之妙，我們會習(xí)慣地說， 往 "下" 走， 英文也會說come "down" 或是 get "down", 這里如果只說 Come Hemphill

5、Ave. 聽來是不是怪怪的？ 至于 block 指的是一塊一塊的建筑， 外國人在指路時很喜歡用 block 作為計量的單位。6. You will see a BP gas station on your left.在你的左手邊你會看到一座 BP 加油站。指路的時候除了路名之外，明顯的地標(biāo)也是有幫助的. 通常你可以指出一些明顯的建筑物或是加油站來幫助對方。加油站的英文是 gas station, 有時會簡稱 station。7. Keep going 50 yards before you come to a fork road.繼續(xù)走 50 碼，直到你走到一個三叉路口。繼續(xù)往下走可以用 ke

6、ep going 這個字， 或是 continue straight 或是 keep straight 也很常用。 Fork road 就是我們說的三叉路口。那如果是丁字路口要怎么說？ 你可以說，This road will dead end into 10th Street. 就可以表達(dá)出丁字路口的意思了。8. Make a right, pass two stop signs and you will run into a Wal Mart.向右轉(zhuǎn)， 經(jīng)過二個 Stop sign, 你就會遇到 Wal Mart。老美喜歡說 Youll run into it! 意思就是，你會遇到的。 Yo

7、u cant miss it! 就是說， 你絕不會錯過的。9. The post office is just right across the street of it.郵局就在Wal Mart的正對面。Right across the street of it 是個很重要的短語， 加上 "right" across 表示出 "正" 對面的意思. 還有一個很常用的就是在什么什么的旁邊， 這個要用 The office is next to it. It 代表之前已經(jīng)提過的 Wal Mart, 如果之前沒有提及，這里也可以直接說成， across the

8、 street of Wal Mart。10. Mr. Yangs house is behind the post office.楊先生的房子就在郵局后面。The twain cantered along for some time without speech， Tess as she clung to him still panting in her triumph， yet in other respects dubious. She had perceived that the horse was not the spirited one he sometimes rose， and

9、 felt no alarm on that score， though her seat was precarious enough despite her tight hold of him. She begged him to slow the animal to a walk which Alec accordingly did."Neatly done， was it not， dear Tess？" he said by and by."Yes！" said she. "I am sure I ought to be much ob

10、liged to you.""And are you？"She did not reply."Tess， why do you always dislike my kissing you？""I supposebecause I don't love you.""You are quite sure？""I am angry with you sometimes！""Ah， I half feared as much." Nevertheless， Alec

11、 did not object to that confession. He knew that anything was better then frigidity. "Why haven't you told me when I have made you angry？""You know very well why. Because I cannot help myself here.""I haven't offended you often by love-making？""You have som

12、etimes.""How many times？""You know as well as Itoo many times.""Every time I have tried？"She was silent， and the horse ambled along for a considerable distance， till a faint luminous fog， which had hung in the hollows all the evening， became general and enveloped t

13、hem. It seemed to hold the moonlight in suspension， rendering it more pervasive than in clear air. Whether on this account， or from absent-mindedness， or from sleepiness， she did not perceive that they had long ago passed the point at which the lane to Trantridge branched from the highway， and that

14、her conductor had not taken the Trantridge track.She was inexpressibly weary. She had risen at five o'clock every morning of that week， had been on foot the whole of each day， and on this evening had in addition walked the three miles to Chaseborough， waited three hours for her neighbours withou

15、t eating or drinking， her impatience to start them preventing either； she had then walked a mile of the way home， and had undergone the excitement of the quarrel， till， with the slow progress of their steed， it was now nearly one o'clock. Only once， however， was she overcome by actual drowsiness

16、. In that moment of oblivion her head sank gently against him.D'Urberville stopped the horse， withdrew his feet from the stirrups， turned sideways on the saddle， and enclosed her waist with his arm to support her.This immediately put her on the defensive， and with one of those sudden impulses of

17、 reprisal to which she was liable she gave him a little push from her. In his ticklish position he nearly lost his balance and only just avoided rolling over into the road， the horse， though a powerful one， being fortunately the quietest he rode."That is devilish unkind！" he said. "I

18、mean no harmonly to keep you from falling."She pondered suspiciously； till， thinking that this might after all be true， she relented， and said quite humbly， "I beg your pardon， sir.""I won't pardon you unless you show some confidence in me. Good God！" he burst out， "

19、;what am I， to be repulsed so by a mere chit like you？ For near three mortal months have you trifled with my feelings， eluded me， and snubbed me； and I won't stand it！""I"ll leave you tomorrow， sir.""No， you will not leave me tomorrow！ Will you， I ask once more， show you

20、r belief in me by letting me clasp you with my arm？ Come， between us two and nobody else， now. We know each other well； and you know that I love you， and think you the prettiest girl in the world， which you are. Mayn't I treat you as a lover？"She drew a quick pettish breath of objection， wr

21、ithing uneasily on her seat， looked far ahead， and murmured， "I don't knowI wishhow can I say yes or no when"He settled the matter by clasping his arm round her as he desired， and Tess expressed no further negative. Thus they sidled slowly onward till it struck her they had been advancing for an unconscionable timefar longer than was usually occupied by the short journey from Chaseborough， even at this walking pace， and t
