內容試閱:
When I was approached with the possibility of writing a book on "Travel English" I immediately started thinking "How can I add something fresh to this already well-reviewed topic?" Before long I had the idea that I could incorporate real, useable information about traveling and manage to stay within the confines of the phrasebook format. Another idea was to come up with a few less common, perhaps slightly unusual headings for some of the sentences, in addition to the usual garden variety topics. You will notice a few "off-beat" travel items. You may also notice that the text moves freely between dialogue and narration. In some cases the topic merely provides a broad context for sentences. This skip-around, globe-trotting spirit of adventure is what travel is all about and the "armchair", virtual-type travel employed here is no different. So indulge your indecent lust for leisure travel as you sit back and take in the sites, if not the sounds, save the phonetic fettles of your favorite foreign fantasy. Who knows, you might even learn some English.
当出版社跟我联系讨论撰写一本关于旅游英语的书籍时,我马上开始思考该如何为这已经经过一番讨论的主题加入新颖的东西?不久以后,我便想到可以加入真实、有用的旅游信息,并将内容设定在惯用语的格式框架下。除了一些较为普遍的各类主题以外,我也替一些较不常用且特殊的主题设计情境会话。所以读者在书中会看到一些较为不同的旅游会话主题,也会发现这些内容不受限制而以对话或叙述的方式呈现。而在某些主题的情境下,则是仅提供概括性的句子。这种跳跃性行走的冒险精神正是所谓的旅游,而通过本书中未亲自走访的虚拟旅游也是如此。就让自己好好坐下来享受一趟惬意的旅程吧。即便没有喧闹声,也别忘了保有你喜爱的异国腔调。谁知道呢?或许你会认识甚至学到一些英语。
