So, how was your week at the hotel?

Did the new manager start yet?

He started on Monday and he already changed all the morning schedules.

I am so tired.

That sounds hard.

Max woke me up at five today because he wanted to walk in the rain.

My cat did the same thing, but she just wanted food.

Cats are so demanding.

I was thinking about our plan for the summer.

Did you look at the places I sent you?

I looked at all of them, and I really liked the small town near the mountains.

Me too.

The hotel there has a lake, and you can rent boats for the whole day.

I saw that, but I checked the prices, and it is quite expensive in July.

How expensive?

The website said 80 euros a night, I think.

It is 120 in July.

I called them yesterday to ask.

Wow, that is a lot.

Do you still want to go there, or should we look at other places?

I still want to go.

Maybe we can go in June instead of July.

June is better for me, too, because the bookstore is quiet then.

But can you take time off?

I have to ask my manager, but I think he will say yes.

I have not used my holiday days yet.

Great.

Then let's check the June prices before we decide.

I can do that tonight.

Wait, there is one more problem.

My cousin's wedding is in June, on the second weekend.

Oh no. Which weekend is that?

The 14th and 15th?

Yes, exactly.

So we cannot go then.

What about the third week of June?

That works for me.

The 21st to the 28th, maybe?

Let me think.

That's eight days, right?

That sounds good, but I need to check my work calendar.

Take your time.

I'll look at train tickets, too.

The train is cheaper than the plane.

Is it?

How long is the train ride?

I do not want to sit for 10 hours.

It's about 6 hours, and you can walk around and eat in the dining car.

Okay, that's not too bad.

I like trains more than planes anyway.

You see more.

Same here.

And we can take Max with us on the train.

Dogs are allowed.

Really?

That's great.

But what about my cat?

She hates cars and trains.

Maybe your sister can take care of her for the week.

She likes cats, right?

She does, but she's also moving to a new flat in June.

She will be very busy.

Hmm.

Maybe my neighbor can help.

She has two cats and she's home all day.

That could work.

Can you ask her this week?

I want to know before I book anything.

I'll ask her tomorrow.

Now, about the money.

How much can you spend on the hotel?

I can pay about 400 euros for the week, not more because I'm saving for a course.

What course?

You did not tell me about a course.

It's a management course at the hotel.

If I finish it, I can become a manager next year.

Sarah, that is wonderful news.

Why did you not tell me earlier?

I was not sure about it.

The course costs 1,000 euros, and it starts in September.

That's a big step.

You will be a great manager.

You already do half of the work there.

Thank you.

That's kind.

But it means I cannot spend too much on this holiday.

I understand.

So let's find a cheaper hotel or maybe a small apartment.

An apartment is a good idea.

We can cook there and save money on food.

True.

And I can make my famous pasta.

It's cheap and very good.

Famous?

You told me you burned soup last month.

That was one time.

The soup was too hot and I forgot it.

The pasta is different.

Okay, Chef Michael.

I will trust you.

But I will bring a pizza menu just in case.

Fair enough.

So, apartment in the mountains, third week of June, six nights.

Six nights sounds perfect.

We can arrive on Monday and leave on Sunday.

Wait, I have to check one thing.

Is the lake warm enough for swimming in June?

Good question.

I read that it's cold in June, but the small pools are warm.

I don't mind cold water.

Max loves swimming, but he hates baths.

Strange dog.

My cat is the same.

She sits in the sink but cries when I turn on the water Animals are strange Okay I will look for apartments tonight and send you five choices And I ask my manager tomorrow morning about the holiday days Perfect Oh one more thing How do we get from the train station to the mountains?

I checked that too.

There's a bus every hour and it takes about 40 minutes.

That's easy.

And the bus station is near the lake, I think.

Yes, it is.

I saw a map.

There's also a market on Saturdays with fresh bread and cheese.

Now I'm hungry.

Let's plan a picnic on the first day.

Bread, cheese, and fruit.

And some wine.

My cousin gave me a bottle from his wedding, but we can buy more there.

Good.

So the plan is train, bus, apartment, picnic, and a lot of swimming.

And one day in the old town.

I want to see the castle and the small museum.

I want that too.

History and books, remember?

I'll find a book about the castle.

Of course you will.

You always have a book in your bag.

It's a good habit.

You should try it.

You can read on the train.

I will.

Maybe you can give me one of your history books for the trip.

I have the perfect one.

It's about mountain towns in Europe.

You will like it.

Okay, now I have to go.

My cat is walking on the table again and she's looking at my cup.

Go save your cup.

I'll send the apartment choices tonight.

Good night, Sarah.

Good night, Michael.

Say hi to Max for me.

Talk tomorrow.

Up next, the lesson based on this dialogue.

If you want to skip it, just jump to the next scene.

Follow Sarah and Michael's journey.

It is a beautiful story, not without its drama.

本语言文本

那么，你在酒店的一周过得怎么样？新经理开始上班了吗？

他星期一开始的，而且他已经把所有早班时间都改了。我太累了。

你可以用我们网站上的互动播放器逐句练习所有这些对话。

链接在描述里。

听起来很难。Max今天五点就把我叫醒了，因为他想在雨里散步。

我的猫也做了同样的事，但她只是想吃东西。猫真是太难伺候了。

我在想我们夏天的计划。

你看过我发给你的那些地方了吗？

我全都看过了，我真的很喜欢山附近的那个小镇。

我也是。

那里的酒店有个湖，你可以租船玩一整天。

我看到了，但我查了价格，七月份相当贵。

有多贵？

网站上说是每晚80欧元，我想。

七月份是120。

我昨天打电话问过了。

哇，那可真不少。你还想去那里吗，还是我们应该看看其他地方？

我还是想去。也许我们可以六月去而不是七月。

六月对我也更好，因为那时候书店很安静。但你能请假吗？

我得问我的经理，但我想他会同意的。我还没用我的假期。

太好了。那我们决定之前先查一下六月的价格。我今晚可以查。

等等，还有一个问题。

我表弟的婚礼在六月，第二个周末。

哦不。那是哪个周末？14号和15号？

对，没错。所以我们不能那时候去。

六月的第三周怎么样？

那对我来说可以。21号到28号，也许？

让我想想。那是八天，对吧？

听起来不错，但我需要查一下我的工作日程。

你慢慢来。我也会看看火车票。

火车比飞机便宜。

是吗？坐火车要多久？我不想坐10个小时。

大约6个小时，你可以走动，还可以在餐车吃东西。

好吧，那还不算太糟。反正我更喜欢火车而不是飞机。你能看到更多。

我也是。而且我们可以带Max一起坐火车。狗是允许的。

真的吗？那太好了。但我的猫怎么办？她讨厌汽车和火车。

也许你姐姐可以照顾她一周。

她喜欢猫，对吧？

她喜欢，但她六月也要搬到新公寓。

她会很忙。

嗯。也许我的邻居可以帮忙。

她有两只猫，而且她整天都在家。

那可能行。

你这周能问问她吗？

我想在订任何东西之前知道。

我明天问她。

现在，关于钱。

你能在酒店上花多少钱？

我一周大概能付400欧元，

不能更多，因为我在存钱上课。

什么课？

你没告诉我关于课程的事。

是酒店的管理课程。

如果我完成了，明年我就能成为经理。

Sarah，那真是好消息。

你为什么不早点告诉我？

我之前不确定。

课程费用是1，000欧元，九月开始。

那是很大的一步。

你会成为一个很棒的经理。

你在那里已经做了一半的工作了。

谢谢你。

那真好。

但这意味着我不能在这个假期上花太多钱。

我理解。

那我们找个更便宜的酒店，或者也许一个小公寓。

公寓是个好主意。

我们可以在那里做饭，省下吃饭的钱。

没错。

而且我可以做我著名的意面。

又便宜又非常好吃。

著名？

你告诉我你上个月把汤烧糊了。

那只有一次。

汤太烫了，我忘了。

意面不一样。

好吧，Michael大厨。

我会相信你。

但我会带一份披萨菜单以防万一。

说得有理。

那么，山里的公寓，六月第三周，六晚。

六晚听起来完美。

我们可以星期一到，星期天走。

等等，我得确认一件事。

湖水六月够暖和可以游泳吗？

好问题。

我读到六月水很冷，但小水池是暖的。

我不介意冷水。

Max喜欢游泳，但他讨厌洗澡。

奇怪的狗。

我的猫也一样。

她坐在水槽里，但我一开水就哭。动物真奇怪。好，我今晚找公寓，发给你五个选择。我明天早上问经理关于假期的事。完美。哦，还有一件事。

我们从火车站怎么去山里？我也查过了。有一趟公交车

每小时一班，大约40分钟。那很简单。而且公交车站离湖很近，

我想。是的，没错。我看过地图。星期六还有一个市场，有新鲜面包和奶酪。

现在我都饿了。我们计划第一天野餐吧。面包、奶酪和水果。还有一些酒。

我表弟给了我他婚礼上的一瓶酒，但我们可以在那里再买。好。所以计划是火车、

公交车、公寓、野餐，还有大量游泳。还有一天在老城。我想看

城堡和小博物馆。我也想去。历史和书，记得吗？我会找一本

关于城堡的书。你当然会。你包里总是有一本书。这是个好习惯。你

应该试试。你可以在火车上读。我会的。也许你可以给我一本你的历史书

旅行时看。我有一本完美的。是关于欧洲山间小镇的。你会喜欢的。好，

现在我得走了。我的猫又在桌子上走了，她正看着我的杯子。

去救你的杯子吧。我今晚发公寓选择。晚安，Sarah。

晚安，Michael。替我向Max问好。明天聊。
