Unit3 Journey Down the Mekong课文翻译
It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. 首先想到要沿湄公河从源头到终点骑车旅游的是我的姐姐。 Now she is planning our schedule for the trip.
强调句型

我不停地问她,“我们什么时候出发?什么时候回来?‖
I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet.
我还问她是否看过地图。
Of course she hadn’t; my sister doesn’t care about details. 当然她并没有看过——我的姐姐是不会考虑细节的。 So I told her that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province.
I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. 我非常了解我的姐姐,她一旦下了决心,什么也不能使她改变。 Finally, I had to give in. Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library.
