| 内容 | Gabrielle来自新西兰的克莱斯特彻奇，那是怎样一个地方，听他介绍一下吧。 Todd: So, Hello! Gabrielle: Hi! Todd: Can you say your name please? Gabrielle: Gabrielle: Todd: Gabrielle. Now, Gabrielle you talked to us last year. Gabrielle:That's right! Todd: And you said that you're from Christchurch? Gabrielle: Uh-huh, from Christchurch in New Zealand. Todd: OK, can you talk about your city? Gabrielle: Absolutely! Absolutely! Well, Christchurch I guess compared to Japan is pretty small, but for New Zealand it's quite a big city. I think it's a great place. Yeah, we've got the beach, the mountains, yeah so city center and nature, really close. Todd: Sounds nice! How many people live in Christchurch? Gabrielle: Oh, that's a good question. Gosh! Were certainly not up to a million! I guess about 600,000 people. Todd: Wow, that's it! Just 6! Gabrielle: That's it. Big city in New Zealand! Todd: Wow! So there's three big cities in New Zealand! Gabrielle: That's right! That's right! We're probably the second or third biggest city. Todd: Uh, what's the transportation like? Gabrielle: Well, I use my bike usually or a car. We certainly don't have the trains like Tokyo, but there's a bus system. It's not too bad, but most Kiwis have cars. Yeah, more convenient. Todd: OK, now can I ask you about costs? Gabrielle: Sure! Sure! Todd: OK, and you can say Japanese yen prices. Gabrielle: Yeah! Yeah! Todd: How much is an apartment? A one bedroom apartment, downtown? Gabrielle: Well, to be honest we don't have that style. We've got plenty of space so we usually rent a house which has three bedrooms and a garden, for example, and much cheaper, much, much cheaper. I'm just trying to convert. Todd: Three bedrooms and a garden! Gabrielle: Yeah! And often we go "flatting" which means we share the house with maybe a couple of friends, probably pay about, I was paying $80 a week for my room so, oh, sorry my conversion rate is not working too quickly at the moment. Todd: That's really cheap though! Gabrielle: It's incredibly cheap. Yeah, much, much cheaper! Much bigger! Todd: Wow! sounds like a nice place! OK, how much is, New Zealand prices OK, how much is a loaf of bread? Gabrielle: A loaf of bread! To get the good bread, probably about $2.50 a loaf, yeah, so, maybe about, oh sorry, my conversion's not working, I've been in Tokyo for too long! Todd: How about a movie ticket? Gabrielle: A movie ticket would be about $13, so it's much cheaper than here. Yeah, definitely! Todd: And bus fare! Gabrielle: Bus fare, a dollar fifty, two dollars for one way. Todd: How about if you're going to buy your friend a sweater, a nice sweater, how much would that cost? Gabrielle: Well, I like the good outdoor brand sweaters so I would probably say about $50 but an everyday sweater you could get about $15 New Zealand. Yeah. Todd: OK, Wow! Sounds like a great place. Oh, and last one, the weather, when is the best time of year to visit? Gabrielle: Oh, summer, definitely. Todd: So that's December? Gabrielle: Yeah, so we're going into summer now so December to February, but we have four seasons in one day, so you can count on all weather even within summer. Yeah! Yeah! Todd: Do you have a really bad month to go, where the weather is not nice? Gabrielle: Yeah, usually June, July, it probably rains the most, but we still get gorgeous sunny days in the winter so, yeah there's not really any bad time. Todd: Oh, sounds nice! Thanks Gabrielle! Gabrielle: No, problem! |
