公交車上常使用的英語

天天坐公共汽車，有沒有想過要了解一下公交車上的英語該怎么說？不急，我們先來看一段發(fā)生老外公車上的對話：

Bus driver: Move to the rear of the bus, please. There#39;re plenty of seats in the rear.

Daisy: How much is the fare, please?

Bus driver: Thirty cents. Drop it in the box.

Daisy: Does this bus go to Washington Park?

Bus driver: Take Bus No. 9. This is No. 6.

Daisy: But somebody told me this is the right bus. I#39;m going to Park Avenue.

Bus driver: This is the right bus. I#39;ll let you off when we get there.

Daisy: Thanks a lot.

Willie: I#39;d like a transfer to the 66th street cross-town bus. How much is the fare?

Bus driver: (Giving him a transfer.) There#39;s no charge for transfers.

Willie: Is it good on any crosstown bus or only on the 66th street crosstown?

Bus driver: That transfer is only good on the 66th street bus.

Willie: I#39;m going to First Avenue. Is 66th Street my best way to get there?

Bus driver: Yes.

Judy: Does this bus go to Washington Square?

Bus driver: No, take Bus No. 10 across the street.

Judy: Thank you.

Notes：

1. Move to the rear of the bus

每次上車的時候都會聽到售票員說：“往后走，往后走，后面有座呢！”當然了，口氣可沒有上面對話中的那位老外司機那么客氣。這個“往后走”就是“Move to the rear of the bus”了。Rear 這個詞的意思是“后面、背面”，那“In (the) rear of”就是指“在……后面”了。

2. 不管是刷卡還是買票，這個坐車的費用都可以說成是fare。如果想問“到……多少錢”，可以這樣問：I#39;d like to go to... (目的地). How much is the fare?

3. Drop it in the box.

如果要讓你無人售票汽車上，告訴外國人把錢扔進投幣箱該怎么說？Drop 1 yuan or 2 yuan in the box. 千萬不要小看英語中小詞的威力，在外國人的日常口語中經(jīng)常會用的。
