場景背景介紹:旅游度假日是日常生活中必不可少的活動,因此聽得動景點介紹也是必要的。本部分介紹的是做極愛“Sebastian George"的居所。文中詳細介紹了他買房子的背景情況、房子的周邊環(huán)境和設(shè)施、風(fēng)景描述以及旅游建議等等。

the Information Centre
Pear Alley
George
the Mulberry Garden
Now, please look at the map I've given you of the house and gardens. We're here at the Information Centre. Follow the path marked with the arrow and the first area you come to is the orchard on your left. As you go further down the path, there's the kitchen garden on the right and as you go round the first sharp corner you will find, to your left, an area where different types of pear tree have been planted as well as some lovely flowers, and this is known as Pear Alley - designed by George himself. Next to this is the greenhouse where some exotic plants and fruits are grown. Follow the path round the second corner and on your right you will see the entrance to the Mulberry Garden with its 500-year-old tree. Past the Mulberry Garden, follow the path until you reach the front of the house. I suggest you spend a good hour wandering around this lovely building. A guide takes visitor groups round every two hours.
現(xiàn)在,請看我給你們發(fā)的屋和花園的地圖。我們現(xiàn)在在信息中心。沿著標(biāo)有箭頭的小路往前走,你到達的第一片區(qū)域便是在你左邊的果園。 沿著小路繼續(xù)往前走,你會在右邊看到家庭菜園。當(dāng)你走到第一個急拐彎處,會在左邊看到第一塊地,那里種著各種各樣的梨樹和一些可愛的花卉。這就是喬治親手設(shè)計的梨樹巷。 在它的旁邊就溫室,那里有奇異的植物和水果。沿著小路到第二個拐彎處,你會在右邊看到桑葚園的入口,里邊有樹齡為500年的樹。經(jīng)過桑葚園,一直沿著小路走知道你來到房子的前邊。我建議你花一個小時來在這個可愛的建筑周圍漫步。每兩個小時,導(dǎo)游會帶著旅游團來參觀。
