第 13 课:That thought hadn't crossed my mind. 那我倒是没想过。

TV: With Taiwan's recent spate of scams, it's no surprise that people are hesitant to trust anyone. But sometimes people really DO get lucky. The national tax authority is still waiting for this year's grand prize winner, a Mr. C. K. “Seth” Lee, to pick up his one million dollars in prize money. If he does not appear within one day to pick up his cash, the authority will draw another winner. 最近台湾诈骗案频传,也难怪大家都不大敢去相信别人。但是有时候就是有人如此走运。国税局还在等今年的大奖赢家,C. K. 李赛司先生,来领取他的一百万奖金。如果他在一天之内还不来兑取现金,国税局就会抽出另一位得主。

Milt: Seth, did you hear that? You really did win all that money! 赛司,你听到了吗﹖你真的赢到那些钱了!

Seth: Like I believe everything I see on TV....Just kidding! [smiles and jumps up] Come on, let's go! 好像电视上的事我都会照单全收咧……开玩笑的啦!(笑着跳起来)来吧,我们走!

Dan: It's settled. We're going to the East Coast. 决定了。我们要去东海岸。

Morley: Great, I can take lots of pictures. How will we get there? 太好了。我可以拍很多照片。我们要怎么去那边?

Dan: First, we'll take a train to Hualien, then... 首先,我们可以搭火车去花莲。然后……

Morley: [Morley interrupts] If we want to do this trip right, let's ride bicycles. (莫理插嘴)如果我们要让这趟旅行好玩,我们就该骑单车。

Dan: That thought hadn't crossed my mind. OK, we can carry the bikes on a bus... 那我倒是没想过。好,我们可以把单车扛上公交车……

Morley: [Morley interrupts again] No, I mean ride our bikes to the East Coast. We could get in shape. (莫理又插嘴)不是,我是说骑我们的单车骑到东海岸。我们可以好好练练身体。
