A Valuable First Stop

George and Janet are visiting Hong Kong for the first time. After checking into their hotel, they go to a tourist information center to get some information about sightseeing and transportation.

T= Tourist information center employee G= George  J= Janet

T: Hello! Welcome to Hong Kong.
G:

Hi. We'd like some information about public transportation tickets. We're here for only three days, and we'd like to use the MTR to visit places.

T: I'd be glad to help. There are two options I'd suggest. The first is the Tourist Day Pass. Each pass gives you one day of unlimited travel on the MTR. It costs HK$55.
J: Sounds economical. How about the other option?
T: The other is the Octopus card. You can use this for most forms of public transportation and to make purchases at many convenience stores.
G: How much does it cost?
T: The standard Octopus card requires a refundable deposit of HK$50. You can add value to the card at most MTR stations and other places.
J: We also wanted to visit The Peak by tram. Can we use the Octopus card to pay for the tram tickets?
T: Yes. But I'd suggest that you buy the Peak Tram Sky Pass. It costs HK$83.
J:

What's unique about it?

T:

It includes rides to and from The Peak and access to Sky Terrace 428, which is the highest 360-degree viewing platform in Hong Kong.

G:

Thanks for the tip. Now, could you point us to the nearest MTR station?

   


旅遊第一站就上手

喬治和珍娜第一次去香港玩。在登記入住飯店之後,他們去旅客資訊中心索取一些觀光和交通的資訊。

員工︰ 你好!歡迎來到香港。
喬治︰ 嗨。我們想要一些公共運輸車票方面的資訊。我們只在這裡待三天,而我們想利用港鐵去參觀各個景點。
員工︰ 我很樂意幫忙。我會建議兩種選擇。第一種是「遊客全日通」。每張車票可以讓你無限次搭乘港鐵暢遊一天。價格是五十五元港幣。
珍娜︰ 聽起來很實惠。那另外一種選擇是什麼?
員工︰ 另一種是「八達通」卡。用這個可以搭乘大部分的公共交通工具,並且可在許多便利商店購物。
喬治︰ 這要多少錢?
員工︰

一般的八達通卡要押金五十元港幣,可以退還。你在大多數的港鐵站和其他地方都可以加值。

珍娜︰ 我們也想搭纜車去太平山。我們可以用八達通卡付纜車票嗎?
員工︰ 可以。但我會建議你們購買「山頂纜車摩天套票」。價格是港幣八十三元。
珍娜︰

那有什麼特別的嗎?

員工︰

這包含往返太平山的路程及「凌霄閣摩天台四二八」的入場券,凌霄閣摩天台是全香港最高的三百六十度全景觀景台。

喬治︰ 謝謝你的指點。現在,可以請你為我們指出最近的港鐵站嗎?
