Dialogue Two  On the Way to the Brooklyn Museum

去布鲁克林博物馆的路上
 

A: Excuse me. Could you tell me if this is where I can catch a bus to the Brooklyn museum?
甲:劳驾,你能告诉我是不是在这里坐公共汽车去布鲁克林博物馆?
B: Yes, but the bus comes only every half hour to 45 minutes. Besides, it doesn't go directly to Brooklyn.
乙:是的,但大约每隔半个小时到45分钟乙班,而且它不直接开往布鲁克林博。

A: Sounds like it takes a long time.
甲:那么说要花很长时间才能到那儿。 
B: It does. Especially at this time of day when the traffic is heavy. Why don't you take the subway? It's much faster.
乙:是的,尤其这个时候车辆很多。你为什么不坐地铁?那要快得多。

A: I just can't understand the New York subway system at all. Do you know where the nearest subway station is?
甲:我对纽约得地铁系统弄不明白。你知道最近的地铁车站在哪里吗? 
B: About a block down from here. I'm going in that direction. I'll show you where it is.
乙:大约过去一个街区,我正是往那个方向去,我可以给你指路。 

A: Thanks a lot.
甲:多谢了。
