aHi, I would like to purchase a one way ticket to Brussels, please.
你好,我想买一张去Brussels的票。
bCertainly sir, this is our train schedule. We have an express train departing every morning and an overnight train that departs at nine pm.
好的,先生,这是我们的列车时刻表。每天早晨我们有一趟特快列车出发,晚上有一趟9点的火车。
aHow long does it take to get there?
到哪儿需要多长时间?
bAbout twelve hours. We currently have tickets available only for first class on the express train. If you’d like, you can choose a sleeper on the overnight train which is a bit less expensive.
大概12小时,目前只有特快列车的1等车厢票。如果你愿意,可以买张晚上的卧铺票,票稍微贵些。
aYeah, I think that is the best option. Do you serve food on the train? Twelve hours is such a long time!
是的,我想那是最好的选择。火车上有供餐服务吗?12小时挺长的。
bYes,of course. There is a dining car towards the front of the train where they serve meals at all times. We do provide complimentary water and coffee for all of our passengers.
当然有,列车的前部有餐车,会一直提供餐饭。我们为所有乘客提供免费的水和咖啡。
aGreat! I’ll take it.
太好了。我就买这个票吧。
bHere you are sir. Your train leaves from platform number nine at nine on the dot. Remember to be here at least thirty minutes before your scheduled departure time or else you might miss your train!
