Todd: Shopping, really.
托德：购物吗？

Edwin: Oh, yeah.
埃德温：嗯，对。

Todd: You don't strike me as the shopping type.
托德：你给我的印象不像是喜欢购物的类型。

Edwin: No, but it's getting cold now, and I need some winter clothes.
埃德温：对，因为现在越来越冷了，我需要买一些冬季的衣服。

Todd: That is true. That is true. So, what did you buy?

Edwin: I bought a jacket and a pair of warm trousers.
埃德温：我买了一件夹克和一条厚裤子。

Todd: Oh, right, right. How much did you spend?

Edwin: I spent about a couple of hundred dollars.
埃德温：几百美元。

Todd: Really?
托德：真的吗？

Edwin: Yes.
埃德温：对。

Todd: Wow! That's a lot.
托德：哇！那很贵啊。

Edwin: Yes, but I don't want to freeze, so ...
埃德温：对，不过我不想挨冻，所以……

Todd: Right. So did you go on Saturday or Sunday?
托德：好。你是周六去的还是周日去的？

Edwin: I went on Saturday.
埃德温：周六。

Todd: Saturday. You didn't stay overnight?
托德：周六。没在城里过夜吗？

Edwin: No, I didn't stay overnight. It was going to be too expensive if we stayed overnight.
埃德温：没有，我没有在那边过夜。住一晚要花很多钱。

Todd: Right, yeah. How did you get there by the way? Do you drive?
托德：对。你们是怎么去的？开车吗？

Edwin: No, we took the bus.
埃德温：不是，我们坐公交去的。

Todd: Oh, you took the bus.
托德：哦，你们坐的公交。

Edwin: Yeah.
埃德温：对。

Todd: I hate the bus.
托德：我讨厌公交车。

Edwin: Yes, but unfortunately I don't have a license so we have to take the bus.
埃德温：嗯，可惜我没有驾照，所以我们只能坐公交车。

Todd: Right, actually, I'm in the same boat, you know, I don't have a license either, but when I go to the city I always take the train. Have you ever taken the train?
托德：好，其实我的情况也是一样，我也没驾照，不过我一般坐火车去城里。你有坐过火车吗？

Edwin: Ah, no, I have taken the train yet.
埃德温：没有。我还没坐过火车。

Todd: Oh, man you gotta take the train.
托德：哦，你一定要坐次火车。

Edwin: How does it compare to the bus?
埃德温：和公交车相比怎么样？

Todd: It's so much better ... well, it takes about the same amount of time.
托德：火车要好太多了，不过花费的时间一样。

Edwin: Oh, really.
埃德温：哦，真的吗？

Todd: It takes about two hours, but you can kind of walk around a bit, you know, it's not as cramped. I kind of get motion sickness on the bus.
托德：大约需要两个小时的时间，不过在火车上你可以走动，不像公交车那样狭窄。我坐公交会晕车。

Edwin: But isn't it more expensive on the train?
埃德温：可是火车票更贵吧？

Todd: Well, actually, you can get four tickets for a hundred dollars, so it's about twenty-five dollars one way, and I think the bus is ... you can get four tickets for eighty dollars, so it's only a little more expensive.
托德：四张票100美元，单程一张票是25美元，我想公交车票价是4张票80美元，只贵一点点而已。

Edwin: I see, I see.
埃德温：好，我知道了。

Todd: It does take a little bit longer though.
托德：不过就是要多花些时间。

Edwin: Okay.
埃德温：好。

Todd: So anyway, what about Sunday? What did you do yesterday?
托德：嗯，那周日呢？昨天你做了什么？

Edwin: Yesterday? Just walked around campus, and not much to do on Sunday. Sunday is usually my easy-going day.
埃德温：昨天？就在校园里转了转，我一般周日没什么事做。周日是我的悠闲放松日。

Todd: Yeah, did you study?
托德：好，那你学习了吗？

Edwin: Yeah, later in the night. Daytime it's usually ... yeah, usually no studies during the day.
埃德温：我晚上学习了。我白天通常不会学习。

Todd: Yeah, did you wait until the last minute?
托德：好，你是会临时抱佛脚吗？

Edwin: Yeah, I'm that kind of person, so yes.
埃德温：对，我的确是那种人，是的。

Todd: Yeah, me too, me too.
托德：好，其实我也是。
