Mary：
Oh! We're stuck in a traffic jam.
哦！我們被卡在車陣中了。
Driver：
The traffic's always heavy at this time of day.
每天這個時候車總是很多。
Mary：
This is just great! Is there any way we can get out of here?
真倒楣！我們有辦法離開這裡嗎？
Driver：
I'm afraid there's nothing we can do but wait.
恐怕我們除了等之外，沒別的辦法。
Mary：
Oh, it's hopeless. I'm sure I'll miss my train.
哦，沒希望了。我確定我會錯過我的火車的。
Driver：
Wait a minute! We can turn at the next intersection! I know another road we can take.
等一下！我們可以在下一個十字路口轉彎！我知道我們可以走另一條路。
Mary：
Terrific! Is the traffic lighter there?
太棒了！那條路上車比較少嗎？
Driver：
Yeah. It's a quiet road. But we'll go through a tollbooth. That'll cost you a little extra.
沒錯，那條路沒什麼車。但我們會經過一個收費站。你得付點額外的費用。
Mary：
So it's a shortcut?
所以那是一條捷徑了？
Driver：
Yeah.
是的。
Mary：
It really doesn't matter, as long as I can catch the train.
那不重要，只要我能趕上火車。
Driver：
Here you are, sir. You've still got seven minutes to spare.
先生，到了。 您還有七分鐘。
Mary：
How much is it?
多少钱
Driver：
Seventeen-fifty, please.
十七塊半。
Mary：
Thank you. Keep the change.
謝謝。不用找了。
