Dialogue 情景对话
At Saturday midnight, James and Jerry could still hear the loud noise outside their window. At 3 o’clock, Jerry was still wide awake, so he decided to call the Room Service Center to complain.
周六晚上午夜时分,詹姆斯和杰瑞还能听到窗户外吵吵闹闹的声音。到了凌晨三点,杰瑞还无法入睡,于是他决定向客房服务中心投诉。
Room Service Center: Good evening! How can I help you?
客房服务中心:晚上好!请问您需要什么服务?
Jerry:Hello, I really want to know why it’s still so noisy outside! It’s 3 a.m.! I couldn’t fall asleep! We have plans tomorrow!
杰瑞:你好,我想知道外面为什么这么吵呢。都已经凌晨三点了,我还睡不着!我们明天还有出游计划呢!
Room Service Center:I’m so sorry to hear this, Sir. Your room is next to West Jiefang Road, which is a very famous bar street in Changsha. Because today is Saturday, it might get a bit noisy outside.
客房服务中心:非常抱歉!由于您房间外就是长沙有名的酒吧一条街——解放西路,再加上今天是周六,所以会有些吵闹。
Jerry: My head is about to explode! I can’t bear it anymore! Can you change the room for us?
杰瑞:我的头要炸了!我真的受不了了!可以给我们换个房间吗?
Room Service Center: Definitely. I will arrange another room that doesn’t face the street. We will send someone to help you with your luggage. And again, we’re so sorry for all these troubles.
客房服务中心:没问题,我这就为您换另一间不临街的房间。另外,我们也会派人帮您收拾行李。再次为造成的不便向您表示歉意!
