9 A Visit to the City Centre

On their first day in the capital, Diana and Peter visited the Old Tower which stood on a hill near the city centre. There were stairs leading to the top, but Diana and Peter decided to take the lift. At the top there was a caf?and a balcony where visitors could stand and enjoy the view. It was magnificent — you could see the whole city, the river and the hills beyond.
On their way back from the Tower, Diana and Peter went past the main square in the city centre. They stopped at a stall to have some orange juice, and sat and watched the traffic for a while. The square was very busy, with cars, buses, bicycles and pedestrians going in all directions. In the centre of the square there was a policeman controlling the traffic.

游览市中心
戴安娜和彼特第一天游览了首都市容,去了市中心附近小山上的古塔。古塔有楼梯直通塔顶,但戴安娜和彼特决定乘坐电梯。塔顶有一个咖啡厅和观光平台,游客可以俯瞰市容。这儿的景色很美丽——整座城市尽收眼底,还有远处的河流和群山。
在从古塔回来的路上,戴安娜和彼特游览了市中心广场。他们在一个小摊贩前停下喝果汁,坐下小歇一会,观赏街上的车水马龙,广场上小汽车、公共汽车、自行车和行人络绎不绝,广场中心一位警察在指挥交通
