日常生活英語情景會話

　　對於一些人來說，朋友不在多而在精，這樣在彼此對話的時候摩擦就會少的多。下面是小編給大家整理的，供大家參閱!

　　：Crime and Punishment

　　Dialogue1

　　Angelina: How are you doing?

　　Julian: I'm ok. I wish I could say the same for my friend.

　　A: What happened to him?

　　J: He was arrested by the police for drinking and driving.

　　A: Was it his first offence?

　　J: Unfortunately not. He was charged with a DUI

　　when he was in university.

　　A: What happened to him then?

　　J: Not much; it was a minor offence back then.

　　He got away with a fine of $ 500.

　　A: Did they take his license away?

　　J: No, they were really easy on him.

　　The problem is that that was a long time ago.

　　They're much tougher on crime now.

　　A: What do you think will happen to him?

　　J: Well, he'll definitely lose his license, pay a fine,

　　and maybe even spend some time in jail.

　　A: That doesn't sound too promising.

　　Does he have a defence lawyer?

　　J: Not yet. If we can't find a lawyer for him,

　　then the state will appoint him with one.

　　A: My sister is a lawyer. I can ask her if she can help him.

　　J: That'd be great. I know he'd appreciate your help.

　　Dialogue2

　　J: Anything interesting in the news tonight?

　　A: Do you remember that story about the woman

　　whose children died of starvation?

　　J: Yes, that must have been on the news a few months ago.

　　A: Yes, well, she was found guilty of murder.

　　J: Do you think they will impose the death sentence on her?

　　A: I don't think so.

　　Wasn't the death penalty abolished in that state decades ago?

　　J: It was abolished at one point,

　　but I thought they brought back death by lethal injection.

　　A: I'm not sure. How do you feel about the death penalty?

　　J: I don't think anyone should be able to kill another human being

　　unless it's in self-defence.

　　A: You know; paying for someone to sit in prison for the rest of

　　his or her lives is quite expensive.

　　J: They should have the prisoners do something produc- tive

　　in their time in jail to pay for their living costs.

　　A: I guess in an ideal world, it would all work out like that.

　　J: SO do you think they should just lock the mother up

　　and throwaway the key?

　　A:I think they should lock her up and try to help her figure out

　　Why she did such a horrible thing to her children.

　　J:Did she plead guilty or innocent?

　　A:Innocent, I think. But there was plenty of evidence that

　　suggested otherwise. I don’t think anyone had a doubt

　　in their minds that she murdered her children.

　　J:That’s such a shame. What kind of mother could do that

　　To her children?

　　：Disasters

　　Dialogue1

　　Julianna: Have you ever been in an earthquake?

　　Miles: Yes, I experienced one when I was in Tokyo once.

　　The tremors only lasted a few seconds though and then it was over.

　　J: Do you know where it measured on the Richter scale?

　　M: I don't remember, but it wasn't very serious.

　　Have you ever been in an earthquake?

　　J: No, but I was in quite a few tornados when I was younger.

　　M: Where are you from?

　　J: I'm from the plains of the Midwest.

　　It's a prime location for tornadoes.

　　M: Did your house ever get damaged from the winds?

　　J: Most of the time we were lucky,

　　but once a tree from our front yard was ripped out by its roots

　　and ended up in our living room.

　　M: Wow, that must have really been scary.

　　J: Actually, some of my fondest memories of my childhood

　　were of spending time with my funily in the basement

　　waiting for the tornados to pass.

　　M: Have you ever experienced a flood?

　　J: No, but my father's car was destroyed in a flood once. It actually happened the day after he bought the car.

　　M: That sure didn't last long!

　　Dialogue2

　　M: Do you remember when Hurricane Katrina passed through

　　the New Orleans?

　　J: Yes, that was just a few years ago.

　　M: What was your first impression of it when you saw all the

　　survivors wading through the waters trying to get to the stadium?

　　] : In all honesty, I thought that I was watching a news story

　　about people tram a third world countly.

　　M: I know. It was absolutely shocking that the people

　　were taken care of so poorly in America.

　　J : In fact, I thought there was less chaos in Asia when

　　the Tsunami hit.

　　M: You might be right.

　　The evacuation and medical teams were able to assist

　　the survivors almost immediately in Asia,

　　whereas in New Orleans,

　　some people went without food or water for days.

　　J: It was such a disgrace.

　　M: Unfortunately, there were quite a few victims in both situations.

　　J : Mother nature has amazing strength to destroy whatever

　　is in her path.

　　M: Before the Tsunami,

　　1'd never seen a twenty-meter wall of water sweep up the beach.

　　J : Before Hurricane Katrina,

　　1'd never seen so many Americans wading in water up to

　　their waists and sitting on rooftops for days while they

　　waited for help.

　　M: When it comes to natural disasters, no amount of money can save your life.

　　J: That may be true, but contributions can help people

　　start to re-build their lives.

　　M: If it weren't for international contributions.

　　Many survivors would simply starve to death.

　　R: Is that your phone?

　　L: Yes, it's my new business phone. Do you like it?

　　R: It's very impressive. Can you use the Internet on your phone?

　　L: Yes, it's got wireless Internet access.

　　R: That's really convenient. Does it have Bluetooth?

　　L : Yes, but I don't really use it that often. Have you ever used it?

　　R: No, but I think it'd be really great for people like you who are always on the go.

　　L: Yes,I guess I should try to use it.

　　R: Does it have a camera?

　　L: Of course it does.

　　Doesn't every new phone include a camera these days?

　　R: I guess so. Would you mind if I checked my email quickly?

　　I'm supposed to be getting an important email this evening

　　from a client.

　　L: Sure. Here you go.

　　R: Have you checked your voicemail recently?

　　L: No, why?

　　R: I think this icon means that you have a voicemail message.

　　L: Oh, yeah. Probably. I don't really know how to use this phone yet.

　　R: Do you want to listen to your messages first?

　　L: No, that's ok. Check your email first; I'll check my inbox later.

　　R: I'm surprised you don't use more of the features on your phone.

　　L: I'm surprised you know so much about it. Where's your phone?

　　R: It quit working last week and I haven't had a chance to buy

　　a new one yet.

　　L: How have you been living without a cell phone for a week?

　　Hasn't it been driving you crazy being without a phone?

　　R: It's not that bad. It kind of feels like I'm on vacation,

　　not having to answer my phone all the time!

　　L: Let's go shopping.

　　You can't depend on public phones in this day and age!
