abroad情景對話(huà)
了解海關(guān)手續
A：You've traveled abroad a lot, Jim, so would you like to tell me something about clearing customs. 吉姆，你經(jīng)常出國旅游，能向我介紹一下關(guān)于通關(guān)的情況嗎？
B：When you arrive in a country, you clear customs. A lot of countries have two channels: the green channel and the red channel. Some countries, like India, have three channels: the white channel, the green channel and the red channel. 到達一個(gè)國家時(shí)要通關(guān)。許多國家的海關(guān)有兩種通道：綠色通道和紅色通道。還有些國家如印度有三種通道：白色通道、綠色通道和紅色通道。
A：Then what are the differences between the green channel and red channel? 那么綠色通道和紅色通道之間有什么區別呢？
B：If you have more than the duty-free allowances or prohibited goods, you go through the red channel and declare them to a customs officer. If you otherwise have nothing to declare, you go straight through the green channel unless you are asked to stop by an officer. 如果你攜帶的東西超出免稅的范圍或屬于禁帶物品，你 就得從紅色通道通過(guò)并向海關(guān)官員申報物品。如果你沒(méi)有需要申報的物品而海關(guān)官員又沒(méi)有阻攔你，你就可以直接通過(guò)綠色通道了。
A：I see.I'm told that we'll have to state the purpose of going to a certain country, is it true? 我明白了。我聽(tīng)說(shuō)去一個(gè)國家時(shí)需要陳述旅行的目的，是嗎？
B：That's right. People go aboard for different purposes: some for pleasure, some on vacation, some on business, and some for other purposes. 是的。人們出國都各有目的：有的為了消遣，有的出去度假，有的是因公出差，有的是為了其他目的。
A：I'm going to New Zealand for sightseeing. What should I say if they ask about my purpose? 我要去新西蘭觀(guān)光，如果他們問(wèn)我旅行的目的我該怎么說(shuō)呢？
B：Just saying "sightseeing" is OK. 說(shuō)"觀(guān)光"就行了。
