Sarah (Female)
Okay, team, let's nail down our theme park trip for next Saturday. First, what time do we want to aim to get there?
好的,各位,我们来敲定下周六的主题公园之旅。首先,我们计划几点到达那里?
2
David (Male)
The park opens at 9 AM, right? I say we try to be there right when it opens to beat the crowds, especially for the popular rides.
公园早上9点开门,对吗?我说我们最好一开门就到,这样可以避开人群,特别是那些热门的游乐设施。

Emily (Female)
Oh, definitely! I really want to go on the new roller coaster first. And what about food? Should we pack a picnic or just eat there?
哦,当然!我真的想先去玩新的过山车。那吃饭呢?我们是带野餐还是就在那里吃?
4
Sarah (Female)
Eating there can get pretty expensive, but it's more convenient. Maybe we can pack some snacks and drinks, and then grab lunch inside. That's a good compromise.
在那里吃会很贵,但更方便。也许我们可以带些零食和饮料,然后午饭在里面吃。这是个不错的折衷方案。
5
David (Male)
Sounds good to me. As for transportation, the highway can get really backed up on Saturdays. Should we consider taking the train instead of driving?
听起来不错。至于交通,周六高速公路会堵得很厉害。我们要不要考虑坐火车而不是开车去?
6
Emily (Female)
The train sounds less stressful, but it might take longer. How far is the station from the park entrance?
坐火车听起来压力小一些,但可能花的时间更长。火车站离公园入口有多远?
7
Sarah (Female)
It's about a 15-minute shuttle ride from the station. So, driving might still be quicker door-to-door, assuming traffic isn't too bad. We can check traffic reports that morning.
从车站坐穿梭巴士大约15分钟。所以,开车点对点可能还是更快,前提是交通状况不太糟糕。我们那天早上可以查查路况报告。
8
David (Male)
Alright, let's plan on driving then, but monitor the traffic. And before we forget, are there any rides we absolutely want to avoid?
好的,那我们计划开车去,但要留意路况。在我们忘记之前,有没有什么游乐设施是我们绝对不想玩的?
9
Emily (Female)
No scary drop towers for me, please! But everything else sounds fun.
请不要带我去玩那些可怕的跳楼机!但其他的听起来都很有趣。
10
Sarah (Female)
Got it. So, early start, snacks and drinks packed, lunch inside, driving pending traffic check, and no drop towers. Sounds like a plan! I'll buy the tickets online tonight.
明白了。那么,早点出发,带上零食和饮料,午饭在里面吃,开车视交通情况而定,不要跳楼机。听起来是个计划!我今晚就去网上买票。
