Tapescript:
Nancy: Oh, David, hi! You know, I’ve been meaning to talk to you. I’m planning a trip to Australia, and I wonder if you could give me some advice.
David: Sure! What… what do you want to know?
Nancy: Well, I thought I’d start my trip in Sydney. What should I see there?
David: Well, the most important thing to see, of course, is the harbor, which is the most beautiful in the world.
Nancy: Oh, right. Do they have boat trips?
David: Yeah, of course, they do. They have wonderful boat trips! The one … the one that I recommend particularly is … is a trip around the harbor in and old sailing ship.
Nancy: Oh, that sounds like lots of fun!
David: Yeah. And, of course, then there’s the Sydney Opera House, which … which everyone knows about. And, uh, you can see … see wonderful things there … concerts and opera and theater.
Nancy: Oh, I definitely want to go there! Now what about places to stay? Can you recommend some place inexpensive?
David: Yeah, let me see… Probably, of course, you know I don’t stay in these places, but probably the most inexpensive place would be … would be a backpacker’s hotel. There are lots of those.
Nancy: Ok, thanks. That sounds good. Uh, where should I go after Sydney?
David: After Sydney, let’s see… I’d recommend that you travel up the coast to the Great Barrier Beef, which is in North Queensland.
Nancy: Right. I’ve heard a lot about it! But what is there to do there?
David: Well, you can go scuba diving and see the coral reef and the tropical fish up close…
Nancy: You know I don’t like to get wet.
David: Well, there … there’re always… always these glass-bottom boats you can… you can travel on . They’re … they’re fabulous! Yeah, and uh, there’re … there are literally hundreds of islands you can explore.
Nancy: Wow! And are there places to stay?
David: Yeah, sure. If you want to spend lots of money, you can stay at one of these fabulous resort hotels or, if you want to … want to do it on the cheap, you can … you can go to a guesthouse, which are much cheaper.
Nancy: Right. That sounds good. Well, what next?
David: Next, well, I guess you should … should go inland to … to Ayers Rock in Uluru National Park.
Nancy: Ayers Rock? What is that? How do you spell it?
David: It’s … it’s Ayers Rock. It’s … it’s spelled … let’s see, A-Y-E-R-S. It’s the largest rock in the world! You must know about it!
Nancy: No kidding! No, I’ve never heard of it! What do you do when you visit it?
David: Well, it’s mainly hiking and trekking. You can … you can walk right round the base of it if you like. [Huh!] It takes about … it’s … it’s about five and a half miles, I guess, but [Wow!] it’s really well worth it. And, uh, there are cave paintings in the rock, and the colors of the rock … at … at sunrise and sunset … are just fabulous!
Nancy: Sounds like I should bring my camera!
David: You sure should! Finally, let’s see, I guess you should travel .. travel north to visit the Kakadu National Park.
Nancy: Kakadu? How do you spell that?
David: K-A-K-A-D-U. It’s a tropical forest where you can go hiking and see all sorts of wildlife …
Nancy: Oh?
David: Oh, and there are some beautiful waterfalls there as well.
Nancy: And do they allow camping there?
David: Yeah, there are lots and lots of campsites. The only thing is that you’ve got to watch out for the crocodiles!
