Man: Hey, Mary, how's your volunteer work going?

男：嗨，Mary，你的志愿者工作怎么样了？

You're still involved in that after-school program with the elementary kids?

你还在做那个小学生课后项目吗？

Woman: Yeah, but I've got a problem. I am supposed to be driving a bunch of them to the zoo tomorrow.

女：对呀，但是我现在遇到一些麻烦。我本来明天是要带他们坐车去动物园的。

Man: Yeah?

男：嗯？

Woman: And I was supposed to rent a van for the trip.

女：这次旅行，我本来是要租一辆面包车的。

But I waited too long to call the rental³ agency⁴ to reserve one.

但是我拖了很久才给租赁公司打电话订。

Man: Oh!

男：啊！

Woman: Now it turns out they don't have any vans available for tomorrow.

女：现在的结果就是他们明天没有面包车。

I don't know what to do? These kids will be really disappointed if their trip gets cancelled.

我不知道该怎么办了？如果旅行取消了，孩子们会很失望的。

Man: Hmmm, well, doesn't one of your friends on campus⁵ have a car?

男：唔，嗯，你学校的朋友没有车吗？

I mean, couldn't you borrow it for the day?

我的意思是，你那天不能借一辆车？

Woman: Yeah, probably, but I'd need to borrow two cars or there wouldn't be enough space for all the kids.

女：呃，也许能，但是我需要借两辆车，这样才能够所有的孩子。

Man: Um, hum.

男：唔，嗯。

Woman: That's why I was going to rent the van.

女：所以我才会去租面包车啊。

And then I'd need to find somebody else to drive, too. I can't drive two cars by myself.

然后，我还需要找别人来开车。我自己不能同时开两辆车啊。

Man: Yeah, that's true. Well, I am sure you can probably find a volunteer or if you wanted to save yourself the trouble of hunting down a second driver, what about public transportation?

男：呃，确实是这样。唔，我相信你可以找到其他志愿者的。不过，如果你想省去找司机的麻烦，为什么不考虑一下公共交通？

Check the bus schedule, I think there's a bus line that goes right past the zoo.

查查公交运行计划，我觉得应该是有线路直达动物园的。

Woman: Yeah, that's a possibility, but I don't know, it might be a real challenge supervising⁶ the kids on the bus.

女：是的，这样也行，但是我不知道，要看管公交上的所有小孩，这可能对我来说真是个挑战。

Sometimes they are a handful⁷ when they get excited. It's an option, though.

孩子们一兴奋起来，有时候还真棘手。尽管，这确实是个选择。
