踏入炎热的八月，大家的暑假已经过了近半，接下来有何打算呢？让我们在《英国问答》这个节目里听听英国学生的假期安排吧，说不定能找到一些灵感，充分利用这个美好的夏日哦——
Natalie: Ah, there is nothing better than a holiday.
Feifei: I know. I love visiting new places and seeing famous sites.
Natalie: I prefer a relaxing holiday at the beach, soaking up[吸收] the sun and reading a book. Hi, I’m Natalie.
QUESTION:
Hello, my name is Dong Yang. I’m a high school student from Shijiazhuang City, Hebei province of China. We are [on] holiday, and I want to know how long the British students’ holiday [is] and how students spend their
holiday. Thank you very much.
Natalie: In Britain, people who work full time are entitled to[有权] at least 28 days’ holiday which includes public holidays, but British students get a lot more. I went to meet a few students to find out how long they get off for holiday.
A: About seven weeks, from about June till July, August.
B: …Well, I don’t really have one. I have to hand in my dissertation[论文] at the end of
August, so…yeah, university’s open throughout
the summer, so…
C: Three months, yeah.
（甲：大约七周，从六月左右一直到七八月。
乙：……嗯，实际上我没有假期。我在八月底必须交论文，所以……是的，大学整个夏天都开放，所以……
丙：三个月，没错。）
Feifei: Three months! I’m very jealous[妒忌的]!
Natalie: Same here! So as you heard, most of the students in Britain get between two to three months off during the summer.
Feifei: But there was one girl who didn’t seem to be getting a holiday this year.
Natalie: So there are some students still
working hard over the summer.
Feifei: I wish I had the whole summer off.
Natalie: One summer when I was a student, I went travelling for a few weeks on the west coast of America. Did you do any travelling when you were a student, Feifei?
Feifei: Yes, I did. My parents and I used to go on holiday together during the summer. Ah, the good old days!
Natalie: I know, sometimes I wish I was a
student again. So Dong Yang wants to know how British students spend their holidays.
A: Mostly spend time relaxing back at home and…maybe just going on holiday for two or three weeks with some friends, just probably south of France.
B: Yeah, so I am working at Wimbledon for two weeks, the tennis…just behind the bar there. And then I’ve got a seven week
internship[实习] doing consulting[顾问咨询], so…I’m also going on holiday for a week, so a bit of leisure in there.
（甲：大多数时间都闲在家里……也许会和几个朋友出去玩两三个星期，或许就在法国南部吧。
乙: 是的，我会在温布尔登工作两周，就是网球……在吧台那儿干活。然后我要实习七个星期，从事顾问工作，所以……我还打算出去玩一个星期，所以还是有一点休闲时间的。）
Feifei: So this person is working at the UK’s biggest tennis competition.
Natalie: Wimbledon is one of the world’s most famous tennis competitions. The competition attracts a lot of famous tennis players, and people are famously known to eat strawberries and cream while watching the competition. It’s a very British food. Here is this student
explaining more.
I think between first and second years, I think most people just take holiday, maybe have a part-time job. But between like, second and third years, I think most people are doing internships for most of the holiday. Obviously you’ve always got a bit of time to go away maybe and see friends. But yeah, internships, I think that’s what most people do.
（在大一和大二时，我想大多数人会去度假，也许还会打打工。但是到了大二和大三期间，大多数人会将假期的大部分时间用于实习。当然，你总会有一点时间出去玩或者探望朋友。不过没错，我想大多数人会去实习。）
Feifei: He also says that you always find time to go away and see your friends.
Natalie: Yes, in Britain a lot of students travel with friends during their time off. So British
students tend to spend their two to three months off university travelling, working at a part-time job or internship and spending time with friends and family. Ah, I feel like I need to book a holiday.
Feifei: Me too! Maybe to the south of France?
Natalie: Sounds good to me!
Natalie: Ah, there is nothing better than a holiday.
Feifei: I know. I love visiting new places and seeing famous sites.
Natalie: I prefer a relaxing holiday at the beach, soaking up[吸收] the sun and reading a book. Hi, I’m Natalie.
