W: I couldn’t agree more. And it was a good job I’d read a bit about how to do
it before I went, because I couldn’t actually hear a lot of what the teacher said.
M: The sails made quite a lot of noise in the wind, but there was just the right
amount for learning how to sail.
W: And the waves were really small too, which made things easier. I think the club
needs to spend some money on new boats, though. The one I was in felt like it might
fall to bits at any moment.

W: Yes, last night I stayed up late because I couldn’t stop reading the last few
pages. I really didn’t expect the hero to be killed.
M: I thought he might be. I read an interview with the author who said some readers
would be disappointed by what happened at the end. I’ve never read anything that
had someone like him as the hero, though. That’s what made it so interesting. Most
books rely on the story and lots happening, but this was more about his thoughts
and feelings.
W: True!

【解析】
【原文】M: We’ve got TV actress Brittany Briers in the studio. Brittany, how did
you discover your love of acting?
W: I was always trying to be like TV characters at home but never thought of acting.
When I was twelve, Mum sent me to drama classes. Then I learned enough to act in
a school play. Being on stage then was definitely what got me interested!
M: What was your first professional theatre performance like?
W: The person I played had an American accent — I kept thinking I’d go back to
my own. I’m sure things like not remembering your lines are embarrassing when there’
s a huge audience. I made sure that didn’t happen.
M: Later you went into TV acting. Why?
W: I was seen on stage by a director who thought I was perfect for a TV series he
was making. I thought “Why not learn some fresh skills?” The extra money was useful,
but I’d never take a job just for money, though.
M: What do you love most about your job?
W: When a new TV series comes out and my family get excited — but I avoid watching
myself on screen. I get the real excitement from picking up the envelope containing
my new role.

【原文】W: Hello everyone. My name is Luca. Welcome you all to Los Cabos. The
bus ride to your hotel will take about fifteen minutes. Right now I’d like to take
a minute to familiarize you with the area. Firstly, please realize that it is against
the law to get drunk in public.
I promise you are going to enjoy your stay here in Los Cabos. This is a beautiful,
quiet city where you can relax, sit by the beach, enjoy great meals and feel very
safe. You can walk into town and enjoy the fountains or take a moonlit walk along
the water. Suntan Tours offers a variety of special discounts depending on your
travel plans. There will be a short information session at 1:00 pm in the hall of
the hotel tomorrow where you can learn all about these offers. If you need to exchange
your dollars into pesos, please use a bank or money exchange. We don’t recommend
exchanging your money neither at the hotel nor at a scenery spot because you won’
t get a fair rate. Also, if you want to get around the city, you’d better off taking
the local bus. If you do decide to take a taxi, make sure that you negotiate a price
before you go.
We’re going to be pulling up to the hotel in just a few minutes. Havier and
Diego will be meeting us at the bus to help you with your bags. I hope to see you
tomorrow at the information session.
