How is the traffic where you live?

你生活的地方交通情况怎么样？

Tom: Jess, we both live in Bangkok.

汤姆：杰茜，我们都在曼谷生活。

Jess: Yep.

杰茜：对。

Tom: We travel around every day. How do you find the traffic here?

汤姆：我们每天都要出行。你认为这里的交通情况怎么样？

Jess: It's pretty awful. Yeah, I think especially on Friday afternoons and at rush hour every day, you can't really take a taxi or travel by car because you can't get anywhere.

杰茜：非常糟糕。周五下午和每天的高峰时段尤为拥堵，在那些时间不能坐出租车或汽车出行，因为堵车严重，你哪里也去不了。

Tom: What kind of options are there for traveling around?

汤姆：那有哪些出行选择？

Jess: There's motorcycle taxis which I won't take because I think they're too dangerous.

杰茜：我不会选择摩托出租车，因为我认为那很危险。

Tom: What do you take?

汤姆：那你会选择哪种交通工具？

Jess: I take motorbikes a lot, but I like the choice that we have in Bangkok. There are motorbikes. There's also tuk-tuks, which are kind of three-wheeled cars. There's the skytrain and the subway and taxis and private cars and a whole range of buses. Do you ever take the bus?

杰茜：我经常选择助力自行车，我喜欢曼谷的交通选择。曼谷有这种助力自行车。还有嘟嘟车，那是一种三轮车。曼谷还有空中列车、地铁、出租车、私家车，以及各种巴士。你坐过巴士吗？

Tom: No, I don't take the bus here. I think if I'm going to be stuck in traffic, I'd like to be in an air-conditioned taxi, not in a hot, sweaty bus.

汤姆：没有，我没在曼谷坐过巴士。我认为，如果可能遇到堵车，那我会选择有空调的出租车，而不是坐闷热又会让人汗流浃背的巴士。
