华盛顿特区Washington, D.C.
STUART： I'm glad I brought my jacket on this trip.
SHARON： Yes， I didn't know Washington， DC got so cold in winter.
STUART： What would you like to do today？
SHARON： I really think we should take a tour of the White House.
STUART： I thought we could go to some of the museums.
Don't you want to see the museums？
SHARON： Of course. But today I feel like seeing the White House.
We should see it first， because it's the most famous historical building here.
STUART： I don't agree. I think the Capitol building is the most famous.
But okay. If you want to see the White House， we'll go see it.
I'm just afraid it will be boring.
SHARON： Boring？ How can it be boring？ It sounds very interesting to me.
STUART： But it's the White House. The president and his family live there.
They won't let us see most of it. Probably we can only see a couple of rooms.
SHARON： No， that's not true.
The White House is very big. And there are a lot of historical exhibits there.
The tour will take us through many different rooms. I read about it in the guide.
STUART： Hmm. If that's true， then the security there must be very good.
Because it's strange to think they will let people walk around in the White House.
SHARON： I'm sure the security is very tight.
Probably they will make us walk through metal detectors like at the airport.
STUART： So I can't take my gun then.
SHARON： Don't always joke like that！ You don't have a gun.
STUART： Yes， it's true I don't.
SHARON： You shouldn't say things like that. You could get arrested！
STUART： What？ Do you think someone will arrest me for IT a joke？
Someone will arrest me here at the breakfast table？
SHARON： No. But if you say something like that in the White House，
they may take it seriously. Sometimes I think you joke too much.
STUART： I'll be careful. Don't worry. I don't want to get arrested by the FBI.
But how long does the White House tour last？
SHARON： I'm not sure. I think it lasts about one hour.
STUART： Alright. We should take a taxi over there right after breakfast.
SHARON： First I want to look in the travel guide.
Maybe they don't have tours in the morning.
STUART： That's a good idea. Do you want some more coffee？
SHARON： No， I'm fine.
史都尔：还好这趟行程我有带夹克来。
雪伦：是啊，我不晓得华盛顿特区的冬天这么冷。
史都尔：本日想做什么？
雪伦：我真的以为应该往不雅观赏白宫。
史都尔：我以为可以往不雅观赏博物馆。
你不想往吗？
雪伦：固然想啊，可是本日我想往白宫。
我们应该先往那边，因为它是这里最著名的历史修建。
史都尔：我不这么以为，美国国会年夜厦才是最著名的。
不外没紧急，如果你想往白宫，那就往吧。
我只是怕会很无聊。
雪伦：无聊？如何会呢？我以为很风趣埃
史都尔：白宫是总统和他的家人住的中央。
他们良多中央不会让人不雅观赏的，大概只能不雅观赏几间展览室罢了。
雪伦：不是如许。
白宫很年夜，有良多历史文物。
导游人员会带我们不雅观赏各个展览室，旅游指南上有说到。
史都尔：如果是如许，那么保安义务要做得极度好才行。
因为任意让人在白宫走动是很特另外。
雪伦：我相信保安义务一定很严谨，
年夜概像机场那样必需经由历程侦测器。
史都尔：那么我就不能带枪啰！
雪伦：别老是开这种玩笑，你底子没有枪。
史都尔：我确实没有。
雪伦：你不该该说这种话，会被抓往的。
史都尔：什么？会有人因为我开玩笑就逮捕我？
会有人在这餐桌上就将我逮捕吗？
雪伦：不是，不外如果你在白宫说那样的话，
他们就会担当。偶尔候你玩笑开得过分火了。
史都尔：我会鉴戒的，别担心，我并不想被联邦盘问拜访局的人逮捕。
不外不雅观赏白宫要多久？
雪伦：我不确定，我想年夜要一小时。
史都尔：好的，我们吃完早餐就搭出租车往。
雪伦：我先看看旅游指南。
很年夜概早上不开放不雅观赏。
史都尔：那却是。你还要咖啡吗？
雪伦：不了，如许就够了。
