hello everyone, welcome to today's Chat with Yoyo I'm Dayou hello everyone, I'm Xiaoyou hey, Xiaoyou yeah I heard that some time ago you went abroad to have fun, how was it it was good, but the schedule was tight I didn't learn about the hotel I stayed at and the surrounding transportation situation in advance so I didn't have time to go to many malls that I had wanted to go to it affected your shopping plans pretty seriously, right could it not, it was such a pity ah, don't regret it it just so happens that today we'll watch a situational dialogue that
happened between a tourist and hotel staff member let's learn together how to consult the hotel receptionist next time you stay at the hotel it will come in handy that's great after the situational dialogue we'll explain the key words and expressions in it good morning, sir what can I help you with hello as for the breakfast buffet hours, what time does it end the restaurant seems to be closed ah sorry sir breakfast time ends at 9:30 it should have just closed oh no I got up a bit late today if that isn't possible I'll have a bite outside may I ask where
is there a restaurant near the hotel yes there are near our hotel there are many restaurants is this your first time in Beijing yes it's my first time if you don't have any special requests you can go to McDonald's to have a bite there is one right near our hotel it's less than a ten minute walk if it's McDonald's then forget it besides McDonald's are there any more distinctive local snacks or something yeah there is a place that is very good it's called Old Beijing Snack Shop the things in their restaurant are very authentic the flavors are unique and
it's not expensive either it's very popular great how do I get there after you leave the hotel, turn left keep walking along the sidewalk turn left at the first traffic light and walk for about another 20 meters and it's right there that's great by the way, I also wanted to ask I'm going to the China World Trade Center this afternoon to handle something what is the most convenient way to go over there you can take a taxi or take the subway if you take a taxi, that section of the highway will be a bit congested I suggest you take the subway after you
leave our hotel, turn right and walk 50 meters and that's the Andingmen Station of Metro Line 2 take it to Jianguomen Station and then change to Line 1 after taking it for 2 stops, you'll be at the China World Trade Center thank you so much no problem is there anything else that you need help with no, nothing OK, bye sir bye
