摘要：英語口語情景對話 WHERE ARE WE?
Dialogue 8
Laurance-Where on earth are we?
Soony- Judging by all the traffic, I"d say we"re near the heart of the downtown area.
Laurance-What did I do wrong? Did I take a wrong turn?
Soony- I"m not sure, but I think that you turned left when you should have turned right.
Laurance-Well, now the,problem is how to get back onto the main highway.
Soony- Well, if I may offer a suggestion ... Why don"t you stop and ask a policeman?
Laurance-Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think I see one up there in the next block.
注解:
on earth:(口語中用于疑問句加強語氣)究竟,到底,全然.
heart of the downtown area:heart=center;downtown area指繁華的商業(yè)區(qū).
If I may offer a suggestion:直譯為"如果我可以提個建議的話".
