美語情景對話 第1024期:Chile Travel Tips 智利旅行小貼士

Hana: So, you're from Chile?

哈娜：你來自智利？

Daniel: Yeah, that's right.

丹尼爾：對，沒錯。

Hana: If I ever travel to Chile, do you have any tips?

哈娜：如果我去智利旅行，你有什麼建議嗎？

Daniel: Well yeah, there are a lot of things that you should do in Chile and also a lot of things that you shouldn't do in Chile.

丹尼爾：智利有很多你應該去體驗的事情，當然也有很多你不能做的事情。

Hana: Oh! For example?

哈娜：哦！能舉幾個例子嗎？

Daniel: Well I would definitely recommend to try Chilean food, especially in the small shops that we have, like in every street. If you go to like big restaurants, it's not going to be really authentic. So I think you should try small shops, in every street. Also if you're interested in nature, well you know, Chile has really long mountains, right. And they're beautiful, especially if you go in winter, you can go skiing and it's not far, it's about like two hours from like anywhere. So that's really cool. You should definitely do that. Also one thing, remember that it's Latin America, so you have to take care of your belongings. A lot of my friends have lost stuff there. But if you pay attention, it's going to be fine, just don't be too obvious that you're a tourist, and that's going to be alright. And probably lastly, I think you can see a lot of history there, our history, like the Indians we had before the Spanish came, and also the mix between the Spanish and those Indians.

丹尼爾：我一定會推薦你品嚐智利美食，尤其是每條街上都有的那種小店。如果你去大餐廳，那食物可能不會太正宗。所以我建議你嘗試一下每條街上都有的小餐廳。如果你對自然景觀感興趣，你知道智利有很長的山脈。這些山非常漂亮，到了冬天會更加壯麗，冬天你可以去滑雪，而且距離也不是很遠，大概有兩個小時的車程。這非常酷。你一定要試試。另外，智利屬於拉丁美洲，所以你一定要看管好自己的財物。我有許多朋友都在那裏丟過東西。不過如果你注意一下的話，不會有太大問題，不要讓自己看上去太像遊客，這樣就可以了。最後，我建議你去看看智利的歷史，在西班牙殖民統治智利以前的印第安人，還有西班牙人和那些印第安人的融合。

Hana: Is there anything I shouldn't do?

哈娜：有沒有我不應該做的事情？

Daniel: Well, I wouldn't really recommend you to take public buses, they're not very safe, so don't do it. Metro is much better, it's cleaner, it's faster and you can get pretty much anywhere in the city, so you shouldn't take buses. And also you should avoid downtown during night, night time, it's quite dangerous I think as any other big city. It is like any other city in the world, it's kind of dangerous when you go downtown at night time. So I think those would be my tips for you.

丹尼爾：我不建議你坐公交車，因爲不安全，所以不要坐公交車。地鐵要安全得多，而且更乾淨更快，地鐵可以抵達城市大部分地區，所以不要坐公交。另外，你也要避免在晚上去市區，和其他大城市一樣，晚上非常危險。我認爲世界上其他大型城市也是一樣，晚上去市中心會很危險。這些就是我給你的建議。

Hana: I see, I'll keep that in mind, thank you.

哈娜：我知道了，我會記住的，謝謝你。

Daniel: You're welcome.

丹尼爾：不客氣。
