- 聽力原文
- 參考譯文
I had an amusing experience last year. After I had left a small village in the south of France, I drove on to the next town. On the way, a young man waved to me. I stopped and he asked me for a lift. As soon as he had got into the car, I said good morning to him in French and he replied in the same language. Apart from a few words, I do not know any French at all. Neither of us spoke during the journey. I had nearly reached the town, when the young man suddenly said, very slowly, "Do you speak English? As I soon learnt, he was English himself!

去年我有過一次有趣的經(jīng)歷。在離開法國南部的一個小村莊后，我繼續(xù)駛往下一個城鎮(zhèn)。途中，一個青年人向我招手。我把車停下，他向我提出要求搭車。他一上車，我就用法語向他問早上好，他也同樣用法語回答我。除了個別幾個單詞外，我根本不會法語。旅途中我們誰也沒講話。就要到達那個鎮(zhèn)時，那青年突然開了口，慢慢地說道：“你會講英語嗎？” 我很快了解到，他自己就是個英國人！
