D
【答案解析】[听力原文] Jane: Hello, Steve. How are you? Steve: Oh, I'm not too bad today, thank you, Jane. How are you? How did you go in the exams? Jane: I'm not sure. I haven't got all my results yet, but I'm so glad we're coming up to the end of the semester. I really need a holiday, so I'm going camping with some friends. What are you doing over the semester break, Steve? Steve: I haven't got any plans yet. I don't really have enough money to fly home. I suppose I could get a part-time job and earn some money, but I don't really want to. Then again, maybe I could start studying for next semester. Jane: Mmm. I thought about doing some summer courses, but I decided that's not a good idea. I need a break or I'll get stale. I need to do something completely different. You do too. Why don't you join me and my friends on the camping trip? Steve: Well, I don't know really. Would your friends mind? Jane: No, of course not. They'd be happy to have you along. We're going down to the Royal National Park. Have you been there yet? Steve: No, I haven't. It's somewhere south of Sydney, isn't it? Jane: Yes, it's about 30 kilometres south of Sydney. We'll be getting an early train from Central to Sutherland. It leaves Central at seven and goes to Waterfall via Sutherland. Amin and Lucy are joining us there because they live in Caringbah. Steve: Oh, I see. That is very early. And who did you say will join the train at Caringbah? Jane: No, not Caringbah. At Sutherland. Amiu and Lucy. Then, from Waterfall, we'll hike to where we're going to be spending the first few days. That's at Garie beach. Steve: What's the park like? Is it on the coast, or inland? Jane: It's on the coast, but it's very big, over 15,000 hectares and there are a couple of rivers, especially one big one, the Hacking. Steve: Can yon do anything on this river? Can we go on it? Jane: Oh yeah, lots. You can hire boats—go boating—row boats. Steve: Row boats. Hey, that sounds fun! Urn, and what about scuba diving or horse riding? Can we do any of those things? Jane: Well, there isn't much point in scuba diving around there as there aren't any reefs or anything, so there's not much underwater life. And because it's a national park, domestic animals aren't allowed. Steve: So what equipment do we need to bring with us if we're going? Do we have to carry all our food for a week? Jane: No. We've got organised for the food to go down with a van, so we don't have to carry too much. You know Dave's van. It's a camper with a fridge and cooking things, so we needn't bother with that. But you'll need to bring a sleeping bag. I've got an extra one I can lend you if you haven't got one. Steve: And what type of clothes should I bring? Like, what's the weather going to be like? Jane: Bathers. Definitely bathers' cause there are beaches, and the river. You can swim in the river. There're some beautiful little swimming pools with waterfalls in the river. Um... good hiking boots, strong boots and socks. I think you need a few pairs of socks because if they get wet it's often difficult to dry them. Otherwise, whatever you prefer to hike in. If you like shorts, that's OK. Steve: And what about my bicycle? Should I bring that? Jane: Not really. Well, you could. There are places to cycle, but none of us are cycling this time. But you will need a warm sweater or jacket for the evenings. Steve: So that's a bit of a pity. I rather like cycling, but not really on my own. And do we have to book anything? Like the train, maybe? Jane: No, we don't need to book the train. And we've already booked beds in the youth hostel. We've booked eight beds and so far we've only got six people, so it's fine for you to come along. Steve: And do we need a guide? Jane: Oh no. Look, here's a map. I'll show you. Now, you see these arrows? They're the marked walking trails. This is Waterfall, where we get off the train. Then we'll walk to Gaffe beach and stay at the hostel there. You see this area beyond the youth hostel, to the south? Those are rocky bluffs and there are lots of animals and birds in this area. You can spend hours just watching them. Now this area here, around Garie itself, has fabulous beaches for swimming and walking, and in some parts there are rock pools with fascinating sea creatures in them. Steve: So there are plenty of places to swim. Jane: Yeah, there are great places to swim. Then to the north of Gaffe, along the coast there are some wonderful cliffs to walk along, where you can get spectacular views. We plan to walk along here to this great picnic and barbecue place with a waterfall, called Wattamolla. Lots of people go there just for the day to have a picnic lunch. Of course Dave will have to drive the van. This area here is Audley. Steve: Where? Oh yeah. Jane: It's not a town, it's just a place where two rivers join where you can hire rowboats. We'll spend the last day here and then we'll all pile into the van so Dave can drive us back to Sutherland to get the train home. What is Steve going to do in the coming holiday? 对话开始两人互相询问假期计划时Steve提到,自己没有钱飞回家,又不是很想做兼职赚钱,也有可能开始下学期课程的学习,但总体而言还是没有什么确定的计划。
