本文通过五个对话场景展示了如何询问公交车信息以及前往目的地的具体路线。涉及如何确认公交线路、站点名称、运行时间等内容。
Dialogue 1：
A: Excuse me .
Are you from around here?
B: Yeah, I work here. Do you need some help?
A: Yes. Do you know what bus leads to Memorial Stadium?
B: Let me think, I believe it's the 104 bus.
A: The 104 bus?
B: Yeah, that's right. There should be a bus stop right at the stadium.
A: And I don't have to change buses.
B: No. You just go up maybe 4 or 5 stops and you're there.
A: That sounds pretty easy.
B: The problem is that the bus stop there is named Whitman Street Stop.
A: That's why I couldn't find it.
B: I know. It should be named something like Stadium Stop, because no one knows about Whitman Street.
A: I guess not. That looks like bus 104. I'd better get on.
B: Good luck.
Dialogue 2：
A: Excuse me. Do you know what bus is going to the theater?
B: Do you mean the Performing Arts Theater on Marshall Street?
A: Yes, that's the one. Do you know how to get there?
B: I'm going there myself . Just come with me.
A: Are you going to the performance of Showboat?
B: Yes. I am. I guess you are as well.
A: That's right. I don't see many theater lovers at the bus stop.
B: Me neither. I guess the theater isn't just for rich people.
A: I should have guessed by your suit, though. It's a little late at night to be going to work.
B: I suppose it is. I like to get dressed up for the theater. It's a habit.
A: It's a good habit. Too many people dress casually all the time.
B: I agree. Some things should be worth getting dressed up for.
A: So how far is the theater from here?
B: It's about 3 stops from here, maybe 15 minutes. There's our bus now.
A: Oh, good. I sure was lucky to find you.
Dialogue 3：
A: We have been
standing here forever.
B: No, we haven't. It's only been five minutes.
A: Well, the heat makes it feel like forever.
B: I agree with that. It is hot out today.
A: I wonder what's taking the bus so long.
B: Have you looked at the traffic? That's what is slowing down the bus.
A: Why is there so much traffic?
B: Didn't you know about the ball game downtown? Everyone's coming to see that.
A: Oh, right. I forgot about that. I guess that explains the traffic.
B: It must. Anyway, the bus should be here any minute.
A: We should have just taken a cab. We still can.
B: Do you know how expensive that could be? We're not in a hurry. So why not wait?
A: That's true. We're not in a hurry, but it's too hot to be standing here all day.
B: The bus should be air-conditioned. You can rest inside.
A: I'm sorry to complain so much. It's just not a good day.
B: No. I
understand. It has to get better.
A: Look! There's the bus now.
B: Oh, good. It doesn't look crowded either. Do you have money?
A: Yes. I do. Let's get aboard..
Dialogue 4：
A: Hey, Jeff.
Look at this bus schedule over here.
B: Okay. Have you found a bus going to the Harbor yet?
A: I think so. The 23 bus, but it looks like it has stopped running tonight.
B: What time is it now?
A: It's about ten o'clock.
B: This says the last bus leaves at 9:45, but that was only 15 minutes ago.
A: So? Doesn't that mean it's not running now?
B: No. It just means the last bus left the first stop, David Street. It should be getting here in about five minutes.
A: Oh, yeah. Why didn't I think of that?
B: I don't know, Marcus. Anyway, I hope it hurries. It seems like it's going to rain.
A: I know, I planned ahead and brought my umbrella.
B: I should have done that. Can I share your umbrella?
A: I don't think so. Are you my girlfriend now? Get wet. Maybe you'll learn a lesson.
B: Some friend you are.
A: I am a good friend . I'm helping you learn a valuable lesson-plan ahead.
B: Not really. There's the bus 23 coming down the street now. I guess I won't be getting wet tonight.
Dialogue 5：
A: Hey, Coco.
Here's our bus. Let's get on.
B: I'm not sure about that.
A: Quit wasting time. Let's get on.
B: No. Wait. Stop. That's not the right bus.
A: Are you sure?
B: No. I'm not sure, but I thinks it's wrong.
A: I hope you're right, because there it goes. We just missed it.
B: We want to go to Westminster Square, right?
A: Yes, of course . That bus said Westminster on it.
B: I know, but this schedule says that bus 91 goes to Westminster Square and bus 65 goes to Westminster Street.
A: So what?
B: That was bus 65. We don't want to go Westminster Street.
A: Oh, yeah. I see what you mean. Thanks for the quick thinking.
B: I think Westminster Street is on the other side of the city.
A: I guess we should just wait for bus 91.
B: I think so. We should also ask a local for their advice.
A: Good idea. I'll go ask that guy over there with the dog.
B: Make sure he understands the difference between Westminster Street and Square.
