SUE1: I'm kind of nervous about this.
JOHN: Why?
SUE: What if I go off a cliff?
JOHN: Don't worry about that. It's impossible.
All the ski runs are carefully marked.
And if there is something that might be dangerous, like a cliff or something,
then they often put a fence around it.
SUE: I think I'm going to break my leg.
JOHN: No, you're not. First I'll ski with you for a half-hour or so.
We'll go on the bunny hill. Then you have your lesson at 10:45.
SUE: What is the "bunny hill"?
JOHN: The bunny hill is the easiest run on the mountain. It isn't steep at all.
It is for first-time skiers. Don't worry about this. It will be fun!
SUE: So they have runs for different kinds of skiers?
They have runs for advanced skiers and runs for beginners?
JOHN: Absolutely.
Look at this map. You can see all the runs on the mountain on this map.
The advanced runs are marked with black diamonds
and the beginner runs have green circles.
Look. The intermediate3 runs have blue squares.
SUE: So why don't I get a map like that?
JOHN: I'll get you one.
But you don't need it right now. Because you will be staying on the bunny hill.
Probably until lunch at least.
SUE: And you, won't you be bored on the bunny hill?
JOHN: Yes, I will. But I will stay with you until your lesson begins.
Then I'll go take a couple more advanced runs. Then we'll meet for lunch.
SUE: I should have invited some friends to come with me.
JOHN: Why?
SUE: I think I'm going to be lonely on this trip.
You will always want to go to the advanced runs.
JOHN: No. That's not true. I will have a good time skiing with you.
I think it's good if we spend a lot of time on the mountain together.
I came on this trip with you. But I also think you will get tired quickly,
because you aren't experienced as a skier2.
So you will probably spend some time shopping in the town, or hanging out in the lodge4.
SUE: And then you can get rid of me.
JOHN: Don't be so sour! I have no reason to get rid of you.
I will ski on the beginner runs with you,
and then sometimes I will go ski on the advanced runs.
We will have a good time here. You will see.
SUE: Well. Alright.
苏：我有点紧张耶。
约翰：为什么？
苏：如果我掉下悬崖怎么办？
约翰：不要担心那个，那是不可能的。
所有的滑雪道都有清楚地标示出来。
而且如果有什么危险的，像是悬崖或什么的，
他们通常会在附近围上栅栏的。
苏：我想我会摔断腿的。
约翰：不，你不会的。一开始我会和你一起滑半个小时左右，
我们会沿着初学者滑雪道，然后你十点四十五分去上课。
苏：什么是初学者滑雪道？
约翰：初学者滑雪道是山里最容易的滑雪道，一点也不陡，
是给初学滑雪者用的。不要担心，会很好玩的。
苏：那是说他们有滑雪道给不同的滑雪者啊？
滑雪道有分高阶者和初学者吗？
约翰：当然有了。
看这张地图，你可以在这张地图看到山上所有的滑雪道。
高阶者的滑雪道是用黑色方块标示
而初学者的滑雪道是用绿色圆圈。
看，中级者的滑雪道是蓝色方形。
苏：为何我没有拿到像那样的地图？
约翰：我会帮你拿一张。
但你现在不需要，因为你会一直待在初学者滑雪道，
至少可能要到午餐时间喔！
苏：那你呢，你在初学者滑雪道不会觉得无聊吗？
约翰：会啊，但是我要陪着你直到你的课开始。
然后，我再去滑几下高阶的滑雪道，我们午餐时间再碰面。
苏：我应该邀请一些朋友和我一起来的。
约翰：为什么？
苏：我想这趟旅行我会很孤单，
你会一直想要去高阶者滑雪道。
约翰：不会，不是这样，我会和你有一段愉快的滑雪时光。
我想如果我们能一起在山上度过一段时间是很不错的。
我是和你一起来旅行的，但是我想你很快就会疲惫不堪，
因为你并不是很有经验的滑雪者。
所以，你可能会花更多的时间在城里逛街购物或在小屋里徘徊吧。
苏：然后你就可以摆脱我了。
约翰：不要这么闹脾气！我没有理由摆脱你。
我会和你一起滑初学者滑雪道，
然后有时滑一下高阶者滑雪道。
我们在这会很愉快的，等着看吧。
苏：好吧。
