    我們?nèi)ミ^加利福尼亞州,有時會去墨西哥。在我還住在懷俄明州的時候,有一次我們在一個周末內(nèi)開車從懷俄明州,穿過科羅拉多州,新墨西哥州,墨西哥再回到懷俄明州。
    Todd: Wow! Well, actually for people who are not familiar with the United States how far is that?
    哇!有些人可能并不了解美國,這條路有多遠?
    Tim: It's a long way. I don't know. It took, I don't know, it took probably about 15 hours one way.
    這是一條很長的旅程。我不知道,大概單程花了15個小時。
    Todd: Wow!
    哇!
    Tim: So, thirty hours all together. But it was fun. We drove down to Mexico, had a good night a good meal, a little bit of drinks and drove back the next day.
    總共30小時的車程。但很有趣。我們開車到墨西哥,吃了頓好的,喝了點兒酒,睡了個好覺,第二天又開回來了。

    你們?nèi)チ颂崛A納(墨西哥西北部城市)?

    Todd: OK. Nice.
    好的,很棒。
    Tim: That was really fun and a lot of other trips we took, ah, when I lived in Oregon, when we'd go down to California, and we'd surf.
    那次真的很好玩,除此之外,我們的其他行程也很有趣,我住在俄勒岡州的時候,我們自駕游去了加利福尼亞州,而且沖了浪。
    Todd: Oh, really!
    哦,真的!
    Tim: Yeah!
    真的!

    你會沖浪?
    Tim: A little bit, a little bit of surfer.

    Todd: OK, What, what kind of car do you drive? What do you use for this road trip?
    好的,你開的什么車?你們自駕游開的是什么車?
    Tim: Well, typical American, uh a four-wheel drive vehicle, big vehicle...lots of gas but a lot of fun.
    典型的美國貨,四輪驅(qū)動汽車,大型車,耗油量大,但是很好的車。
    Todd: Oh man, you're from Oregon, you're supposed to be a tree-hugger!
    老兄,你來自俄勒岡州,你本應(yīng)該是個環(huán)境保護主義者!
    Tim: I know. I know. But there're good. One rule we had on our road trips was any, any lake or big body of water we had to stop and swim in. It was a good thing to do.
    我知道。但那車真的很好。自駕游有一條規(guī)則就是,遇到湖泊或是積水很深的地方我們一定會停車,在水里游一會兒。這么做感覺很棒。
    Todd: Well, you live in Japan now. Do you ever do road trips in Japan?
    你現(xiàn)在生活在日本。你在日本自駕游過嗎?
    Tim: I took a road trip from Niigata up around Hokkaido and back, so it was a long road trip actually.
    我曾駕車從新瀉(日本本州島中北岸港市)出發(fā),到達北海道折返,那實際上也是一次長途自駕游。
    Todd: OK. Wow! What's the difference between a road trip in Japan and a road trip in America?
    好的。哇!在日本自駕游和在美國自駕游的區(qū)別是什么?
    Tim: Well, a road trip in Japan..it's a little bit more dificult to get around, it's a little bit more expensive, ah, in America road triping is sort of, something a lot of people do.
    在日本自駕*動有些不自如,我還需要更多的經(jīng)驗。在美國自駕游就很常見,因為很多人都這么做。
    Todd: Yeah!
    好的!
    Tim: And in Japan, when we do that it is a little bit strange, a little bit different, not not very normal.
    另外,在日本自駕游有一點奇怪,有一點不同,自駕游在日本還不是很常見。
    Todd: Yeah, that's true. OK. Great, thanks a lot Tim.
    是的,事實正是如此。好的,謝謝你蒂姆。
    Tim: Alright.
    好的。
