您注意到了吗？虽然元宵节灯会在明天举行，但是利奥却使用了一
般现在式。这种用法在英语中很普遍。但要注意的是你一定要在句
子中包括一个表示未来时间的明确词汇。另外，在这个句子中还有
一个介词ON , 它必须用在一个时间名词的前面。请跟着老师重复
这个句子。
The festival is on tomorrow
The parade is on next Wednesday.
The tour is on at nine.
让我们再听一遍这部份对话，请重复利奥的句子。
Leo: Now, what did you have in mind? A full day tour?
Jack: Yes.
Mona: The zoo looks good. I love animals.
Jack: But we can go to the zoo anywhere, Mona. Leo, what’s
something we can only see in this city?
Leo: Well, you’re in luck. The Lantern Festival parade is on tomorrow.
It’s very colourful.
Mona: Is it near the harbour? I’d love to see the harbour.
Jack: We have harbours in Australia, Mona.
各位听众朋友，您现在收听的是澳洲广播电台为您制作的“旅游业
英语”教学节目。
第十五课: 讨论旅游内容。
Lesson 15: Discussing a Tour
请注意听下面这部份对话中出现的生词和新的短语。
Leo: Perhaps this will interest you. It’s a dolphin watch harbour
cruise.
Jack: How much will that set us back, Leo?
Leo: As you can see, the price is very reasonable.
Mona: Oh this looks good.

Leo: It’s going to be fine and sunny tomorrow.
Leo: Perfect for a cruise.
Jack: I think I’d like to see the parade.
Leo: You can do both! The cruise takes four hours and the parade
doesn’t start until after sunset.
Jack: Sounds good to me.
请再听一遍对话及中文翻译
利奥: 也许您会对这个活动感兴趣，那就是乘船观看海豚。
Leo: Perhaps this will interest you. It’s a dolphin watch harbour
cruise.
杰克: 这个活动收费多少钱呢，利奥？
Jack: How much will that set us back, Leo?
利奥: 您也看到了，这个活动的收费是非常合理的。
Leo: As you can see, the price is very reasonable.
蒙纳: 这个活动看起来不错呀。
Mona: Oh this looks good.
利奥: 明天的天气晴朗，非常适合乘船游览。
Leo: It’s going to be fine and sunny tomorrow. Perfect for a cruise.
杰克: 我还是想去看元宵灯会。
Jack: I think I’d like to see the parade.
利奥: 可以二者兼顾。乘船观海豚活动只要四个小时，而元宵
灯会要到太阳落山之后才会开始。
Leo: You can do both! The cruise takes four hours and the parade
doesn’t start until after sunset.
杰克: 我想这是个好主意呀。
Jack: Sounds good to me.
请注意听利奥是如何向客人提出建议的。
利奥: 也许您会对这个活动感兴趣。
