1.Can you tell me where we are?
在询问我们现在所在地时常用的表达。where we are是“我们现在在哪里”的名词形式。此外,也可以用这样的表达方式:Can you tell me how to get to...?"您能告诉我怎样去......吗?“
2.This is where we are.
直译的意思是”这里是我们所在的场所“。通常是边指着地图边这样说。
3.should be on
should的意思是”应该“。be on...(街道的名字)表示”在......街道“。
4.keep on Washington another  block or so and turn left on 
表示”照这样一直走“时,应该使用keep。keep straight表示”直行“,keep right表示”(在驾驶中)沿着右道车线行驶。”
another block or so的意思是“大约一条街的道路”。在会话中经常这样使用。
表示转弯时要使用“turn”,表示“在第七个路口处”转弯时,它前面的介词应该使用turn on,而不是turn at,这一点要多加注意。
5.The first major intersection...
在美国,像intersection of Seventh and Olympic“第七大街和奥林匹克大街的十字路口”这样的表达方式,要使用两条街道的名字。
6.You  bet.的本意是“当然,确实”。这是当别人对你说thank you,你回答他说“不客气,没关系”时的用法。

  • There is a stop sign at an intersection.在交叉路口处有停车标志。
