Today, we look at some of the ingredients that make our man who he is. Born in Mexico, in a village we are not permitted to mention; son of Jàmes Bondios, who was also son of Jàmes Bondios, et cetera. Equipped with the highest quality of technological gadgets, provided by ‘M’ Maria, a creative and technological genius. His suit, that is much more than a suit alone, is by Jesus. And yes, he has a catchphrase, a simple sequence of words we’ll get to know soon enough…
先週まではイギリスに関する話題が続きましたが、今回の会話は南半球の"Down Under"、すなわちオーストラリア・シドニーが舞台です。 シドニーと聞いて皆さんが真っ先に思い浮かべるのが、今回の話題に登場するオペラハウスではないでしょうか。会話の親子はオペラハウスの観光に向かっています。ハーバーブリッジを車で渡りながら、娘がぬいぐるみのコアラに話しかけています。このコアラをめぐってひと騒動が起こることに・・・。 今回お借りした素材 写真(ハーバーブリッジとオペラハウス):Wikipedia Download MP3 (13:17 7.7MB 初級~中級)** Script *** (Slow speed) 02:20-04:30 (Natural speed) 08:40-10:25 At Opera House (A father an 5-year-old daughter are in a car in Sydney.) W: Hey Dad, I can see a big bridge in front of us! Are we going over it? M: Yeah. We're going to the Opera House! You can see it over there. W: Yeah, I can see it! (to the stuffed koala in her hands) Can you see it, Koala? We're going there. And we're going over the bridge now! M: This bridge is called Harbour Bridge. Look at all the ships in the harbour!. W: Dad, what's Opera House? M: It's a theater and a concert hall. There are concerts and plays there. And it's famous for the building itself. It's different, isn't it? W: Yeah. It's like big waves. M: Here we are. Let's get out and walk around. Don't forget your cap. It's hot outside. (A minute later) W: (Yawn) It's boring. M: What? Opera House is the symbol of Sydney, and even of Australia! See it's huge. It's one of the World Heritage sites too. W: I guess it looks kind of cool, with the bridge too. M: For sure. Hey, shall we take a photo in front of it? W: OK…Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!! Dad!! Look at my koala!! Its nose is gone!! M: What!? Oh…it's missing its nose? It must have fallen off. W: I need to find it M: Maria, that's impossible. Look how far we walked around! And look at the ground. The pebbles look like his nose! Just about the same size! And the color too! W: But…he's lost his nose! I have to find it for him. M: Maria, forget about it. It's getting dark. We need to go back to the hotel. We booked a restaurant for dinner. W: NO!!! I'll find it! M: (Sigh) OK. (To self) I never thought I'd be searching for a koala nose in front of the Opera House! (Written by Ayumi Furutani)
