Unit 6 Holidays 外出度假
Listening 4 Talking About Holiday Plans 讨论假期计划

英语听力原文：
Alan:What are you going to do this bank holiday,Brenda?
Brenda:We're going to Bath for three days.
A:That's nice.I love Bath,and at Easter time,it's not too crowded with foreign tourists.
B:Yes,that's what I thought.In summer,it's best to go somewhere less famous,just into the countryside and stay at a small B&B somewhere.
A:Where are you going to stay in Bath?
B:We're going to stay near my friend's house in a pub called The George.
A:In the centre?
B:No,in a village just outside the city centre next to a beautiful canal.It does B&B and so it is quite cheap.
A:How will you get there?By bus?
B:We were going to,but we decided to rent a car instead because it's cheaper for four people.Also,it's easier to go sightseeing around the city.
A:Yes,a rental sounds like a good idea.When will you come back?
B:Monday afternoon.If we leave in the evening,the traffic may be bad.Have you got any plans for the holiday,Alan?
A:Yes,we'll take a boat trip along the Thames.
B:That sounds great.How long for?
A:I'm taking extra two days off work,so altogether five days.We'll go early on Saturday.
B:And where will you stay?
A:On the boat,of course.It's a self-catering holiday.
B:You've got to do all the cooking by yourself?That doesn't sound like a holiday to me!

英语听力翻译：
艾伦：这次国定假期你要做什么，布兰达？
布兰达：我们要去巴斯玩3 天。
艾伦：真好，我喜欢巴斯，而且在复活节前后，不会有太多外国观光客挤在那里。
布兰达：是啊，我就是这么想的。夏天的时候，最好去其他没那么出名的地方，只要到乡下什么地方找个小民宿住就好了。
艾伦：你们要住在巴斯的哪里？
布兰达：我们要住在靠近我朋友家的一个小酒馆，叫做“乔治”。
艾伦：在市中心吗？
布兰达：不是，在一个小村落，就在市中心外围，紧邻着一条美丽的运河。这家店以民宿的形式经营，所以很便宜。
艾伦：你们要怎么去？搭公交车吗？
布兰达：我们原本要搭公交车的，不过后来决定改成租车，因为4 个人租车比较便宜，而且要在市内到处观光也比较方便。
艾伦：是啊，租一辆车听起来不错。你们什么时候回来？
布兰达：星期一下午。如果傍晚才出发，可能会塞车。你假期有什么计划吗，艾伦？
艾伦：有啊，我们到搭船沿着泰晤士河旅行。
布兰达：听起来很棒。要旅行多久？
艾伦：我另外多休了两天假，所以总共是5 天。我们星期六一早就出发。
布兰达：你们要住在哪里？
艾伦：当然是住在船上啰。这是一个自己开伙的假期
布兰达：你们三餐全都要自己做？我听起来一点也不觉得像是在度假！
