Role-play Exercise 角色扮演練習
這段音訊中 Mary Jones 的部分被挖去了,現在就由你來扮演一下這個角色吧~
Notes 註釋
1. 有沒有注意到音訊中是如何說18:00的?Eighteen hundred. 這個說法對於我們恐怕比較陌生,看國外網站上怎麼說:Both "eighteen o'clock" and "eighteen hundred" are commonly encountered spoken English for 18:00. 和"eighteen o'clock"一樣,"eighteen hundred"也是一種很常見的口語說法哦~
2. a return flight 往返航班
3. economy 經濟艙 business class 商務艙 first class 頭等艙
4. check-in desk 登記臺 check in 辦理登機手續或旅館入住手續
