零起点美语-Writing It Down

Writing It Down

记下来
Evan and Gertrude discuss the best way to drive to Denmark.
E:So, Gertrude, you think we should avoid Bremen and Hamburg altogether.
D:Ya. When you can drive through the countryside, you'll appreciate our beautiful German landscape much more. Cities are a dime a dozen.
E:Well, wouldn't it take much longer?
D:Longer? Ya. But it will be well worth the time. Mama told me she'll pack a lunch for you for tomorrow. You can stay at our inn tonight instead of looking for a motel in Bremen and have breakfast here, too!
E:That sounds convenient. Especially after I've had a couple of your delicious German beers!
D:Ya. Don't drink and drive, you know.
E:I know. Kathy here always reminds me. Your idea sounds good, but I'm afraid I would get lost.
D:Nein. Here, use this map. I'll draw the route for you. You should reach the Danish border by late afternoon if you leave tomorrow morning about nine o'clock.
E:This promises to be an adventure, but we're willing to try it!

艾凡和葛楚德讨论开车到丹麦去的最佳方式。
艾　凡：葛楚德，你认为我们应该避开不来梅和汉堡两个城市，是吗？
葛楚德：对。如果你们能够开车行经乡间的话，就更加能欣赏我们德国的美景。城市没什么好看的。
艾　凡：嗯，那不是要多花很多时间吗？
葛楚德：多？没错。但是花这些时间相当值得。妈妈告诉我她会为你们打包好明天的午餐。你们今晚可以待在我们的旅店，不用到不来梅去找寻汽车旅馆，并且也可以在这儿用早餐！
艾　凡：听起来很方便。特别是在我喝了几瓶可口的德国啤酒后！
葛楚德：没错。但不可喝酒开车，你知道的。
艾　凡：我知道。凯西总是在这时候提醒我。你的主意听起来不错，但是我怕我会迷路。
葛楚德：不会。喏，用这张地图。我会画路线图给你。如果你们明天早上九点左右出发的话，到傍晚时应该会到达丹麦边界。
艾　凡：这可能是一次历险，但是我们很乐意尝试！
