【话匣子英语】旅行的计划

亚当正准备继续开始他的日本之旅，他要继续往哪里走呢，听听哈皮对他的采访。

Harp¹: Have you done any travelling² around Japan right now? Are you going³ to do some more when you get back?

 

Adam: Yeah, I’ve done a bit⁴. I’ve been around to a few⁵ cities, Hiroshima, Okinawa, Kyoto, Nara, of course⁶ Osaka ’cause I’m very close to Osaka. But I haven’t been up north. I’d like to do that.

 

Harp: OK, so maybe you’re going to do that when you go back?

 

Adam: Yeah, once the weather warms up I’ll go up north.

 

Harp: Is it cold there?

 

Adam: It’s not that cold, Canada is much colder than where I’m staying in Japan but I’m a bit of a wimp⁷. I don’t like the cold weather. I complain⁸ about it all the time.

 

Harp: Yeah, you fit⁹ with Culips then, we’re always complaining¹⁰ about the cold weather. OK, so that’s about it for us today. Thank you so much Adam for coming in and joining us today.

 

Adam: It was¹¹ my pleasure¹².
