Hello, Tourist Information Centre, Mike speaking, how can I help you?

您好，游客信息中心，我是Mike。请问有什么需要帮助的吗？

Oh, hi. I wanted to find out about cookery classes.

嗨，你好。我想咨询一下烹饪课程。

I believe there are some>

这里应该有针对游客的那种一天课程吧？

Well, they're open to everyone, but tourists are always welcome.

对，这些课程所有人都可以参加，但是也非常欢迎游客参加。

OK, let me give you some details of what's available.

好的，让我给你一些可供选择课程的细节。

There are several classes. One very popular>

有很多课程可供选择。

一个非常受欢迎的课程叫做食物工作室。好的。

They focus>

他们主要是针对季节性的食物，

还会教你如何烹饪，当然了他们也会告诉你如何进行挑选。

Right, that sounds good. How big are the classes?

好的，听起来很不错。课程容量有多大呢？

I'm not sure exactly, but they'll be quite small.

我不是很确定，但是应该是挺小的。

And could I get a private lesson there?

我可以在这里上私教课吗？

I think so... Let me check, yes, they do offer those.

我觉得应该是可以...让我看看，是的，他们有私教课。

Though in fact most of the people who attend the classes find it's a nice way of getting to know>

尽管实际上大多数参加课程的人觉得能有这样一个机会认识其他人也很不错。

I suppose it must be, yes.

我觉得也是。

And this company has a special deal for clients where they offer a discount of 20 percent if you return for a further class.

这家公司还给客户提供优惠，如果你回来继续上课的话，他们会给你百分之二十的折扣。

OK. But you said there were several classes?

好的。但是你刚才说这里有很多课程吗？

That's right. Another>

是的。另一个你可能比较感兴趣的是Bond's烹饪学校。

They're quite new, they just opened six months ago, but I've heard good things about them.

他们很新，六个月之前刚刚开业的，但是我听说口碑很好。

They concentrate>

他们主要是教你如何制作健康食物，而且也有很多非常专业的员工。

So is that food for people>所以那些食物是专门针对节食的那类人吗？

I don't know if I'd be interested in that.

我不知道自己是不是对那个感兴趣。

Well, I don't think they particularly focus>

呃，我不觉得他们局限于低卡路里食物或者是减肥。

It's more to do with recipes that look at specific needs,

它应该是做一些有特殊需求的菜肴，

like including ingredients that will help build up your bones and make them stronger, that sort of thing.

比如说里面含有能够增强骨骼的食物原料，会让人更加更加强壮，像这种东西。

I see. Well, I might be interested, I'm not sure.

我懂了。好的，我可能还挺感兴趣的，但是也不太确定。

Do they have a website I could check?

他们有网站我可以看看嘛？

Yes, just key in the name of the school -- it'll come up.

是的，输入学校的名字就可以--它会马上出现的。

And if you want to know more about them, every Thursday evening they have a lecture at the school.

如果你想知道更多的信息，每周四晚上他们会在学校有一个讲座。

It's free and you don't need to book or anything, just turn up at 7.30. 它是完全免费的，你不需要提前预定，七点半的时候到场就可以。

And that might give you an idea of whether you want to go to an actual class.

通过讲座你可能就会知道你到底是不是真的想上这门课。
