2017年9月公共英语pets2级口语辅导（19）
Boss: Don’t take the highway from Suao to Hualien. There are too many big trucks.
Morley: But isn’t that the only way to go?
Boss: You can go up into the mountains from here and then go down into Taroko Gorge.
Morley: That sounds like it involves an awful lot of uphill riding.
Boss: It does. You gotta get up to 2,600 meters high.
Morley:[Looks at Dan shaking head] I think we’ll take a bus.
Boss: That’s what I always do.
(续上期，下期续)
老板：不要走苏花公路。大卡车很多。
莫理：可是那不是唯一的一条路吗?
老板：你们可以从这里骑上山然后下山进入太鲁阁峡谷。
莫理：听起来要骑一大堆上坡路。
老板：没错。你们必须骑到两千六百公尺高。
莫理：(看到阿丹摇摇头)我想我们还是搭公交车好了。
老板：我也是都这么做。
重点解说：
gorge (n.) 峡谷。
involve (v.) 涉入
uphill (a.) 上坡的
