【连载】雅思听说结合第八篇来啦，今天的第二篇哦，雅思听力和口语，每天来一篇，与学为贵一起攻克雅思难题，这就赶紧看过来吧~
1.Let me see, I think that’s about 150 miles southwest of here. In fact,it’s 147 miles to be exact, so it’ll take you at least – say, three to four hours by road.
首先：to be exact,准确来讲。to be + v.原形很多时候都等于v-ing，这个表达很简单，一般用作插入语，很容易掌握，那么我就来补充几个类似的表达：
to be exact=to be precise, to be frank=frankly speaking, to be honest=honestly speaking, to be specific具体来说，等等。
然后：three to four hours by road,大概三到四个小时的车程。这个表达很好啊，适用于口语里面的旅游话题，类似的表达大家可以参考剑4 Test1 Section1的那句：…because we’re able to say that all our visits are less than three hours drive.
以及剑5Test1Section1的那句：It’s two days – that includes four hours’travel time each way from here.
2 ….But it’ll cost~you. cost sb.
会花费某人很多钱。其实说白了就是贵！
你们在口语里说贵的时候，可以说it costs me! 正好今天双11，你们。。。哈哈哈哈哈
3.I think for that kind of distance a cab would be way beyond my budget.
超过某人的预算= I can’t afford，说白了还是嫌贵。比如，我想买个纪梵希钱包，虽然它已经是半价了，但我还是买不起。I really wanna by this Givenchy’s purse, and I know it’s 50% discount now, but it still beyond my budget.
4.Hmmm,to bad, the bus leaves at 3.45, so you would have quite~a wait –more than 4 hours.
Quite a wait, 那叫一个等啊~~~形容等待时间过长。现在让我们来总结一下表示“相当的”这个词的英文都有哪些：quite, pretty, rather, fairly, etc.所以，口语里面这些词儿都可以换起来~~~
5.It’s a door-to-door service and it would suit you much better.
上门服务！
现在外卖不就是上门服务嘛~ Take-away is a kind of door-to-door service.
6. that should give you plenty of time to, you know, collect your baggage, maybe grab~a coffee? 喝咖啡
grab这个词口语用起来很地道。Grab a bite大口吃~
7.OK. Well, that seems to be everything. Have a good trip and we’ll see you in Toronto next week!
That seems to be everything=that’s all.就完啦~~~~
