托德与来自斯里兰卡的米妮交谈,托德问她如果有人要去斯里兰卡,你觉得在斯里兰卡必须要做的三件事是什么?
 
Todd: Hello, Mini.
Mini: Hello.
 
Todd: Now, Mini, you are from Sri Lanka.
 
Mini: Yes.
 
Todd: If somebody is going to your country, can you recommend 1 three things they should do or three things they should see?
 
Mini: OK, the first thing is you can go and see the ancient things that all the Kings and Queens built, like castles. We have a castle called... it's called the Rock Castle. It's called Sigirya, so it's very beautiful.
 
Todd: This is the Rock Castle.
 
Mini: Yeah, it's... the castle is on the rock itself, so you can see the ruins there. It's really beautiful, with pictures, paintings, arts and stuff 2.
 
Todd: Oh, really. That's really cool, so this rock castle, how old is it?
 
Mini: I'm not sure, but maybe around two thousand. I'm not sure. Sorry.
 
Todd: What else should people you see?
 
Mini: The second thing should be beaches. We have beautiful beaches all over the place, blue, clean. You can swim. You can surf. It's very beautiful. That's the second thing.
 
Todd: Surfing is popular in Sri Lanka?
 
Mini: M-hm. I mean, not popular amongst 3 Sri Lankans but most of the... many tourists come, especially the Germans, they come to my country and surf because the hotels near the beaches are very cheap and it's very beautiful hotels and very cheap. Food is cheap. It's nice.
 
Todd: OK. So, we've got the Rock Castle, surfing on the beach. Anything else?
 
Mini: And then a third thing should be the Tooth Temple. It's like the tooth of a Buddha 4, so we got it from I guess India, King Ashoka, so it's one of the things that you can see there. It's a really beautiful temple.
 
Todd: OK, I'm sorry. Can you say the name of that again?
 
Mini: Temple of Tooth Relic 5.
 
Todd: The Temple of Tooth Relic.
 
Mini: Yeah.
 
Todd: OK.
