Jessie:Of course.I take the elevator to the first landing,and I have a view over the rooftops of Paris.And then I come to the second landing,it provides a panoramic look at the city.At last,I will reach the top landing.Youd better not go to the top landing directly either.
Joshua:Yeah,great.
Jessie:How long are you planning to stay?
Joshua:Not too long.Maybe I will stay there two or three days.
Jessie:In that case I suggest you go to the Louvre Museum.Because there are so many treasures there.
Joshua:Ok.I still want to see the Versailles.
Jessie:The Versailles is in the suburbs of Paris.
Joshua:Thanks for your valuable suggestions.
Jessie:Its my pleasure.

香榭丽舍大街:流光溢彩极尽奢华
The Champs Elysees is one of the most famous streets in the world,line with its cinemas,cafe and luxury specialty shops.The sidewalks are incredibly wide and lavish,leaving plenty room for a wide array of sidewalk cafes,beverage and dining options running the full range from McDonalds to posh and pricey French restaurants.
Except to pay at least $4 for a beer or $9 for a mixed drink in even the modest sidewalk cafes——well worth the price for a table with a view of the activity on the Champs.At the very heart of Paris it is one of the most symbolic palaces in the city,representative of its spirit and its glory.
香榭丽舍大街是世界最著名街道之一,街道两旁电影院、咖啡馆、高档专卖店林立。人行道路面非常宽阔,为咖啡馆、酒馆和餐馆留下了足够的空间,从麦当劳到高档的法国餐厅,不一而足。
最少花4美元来杯啤酒,或者花9美元来杯混合饮料,即使是在最简陋的街面,也能找张桌子坐下来,欣赏香榭丽舍大街上的一切活动。坐落于巴黎的正中心,香榭丽舍大街是最具代表性的地方,代表了这个城市的精神与荣耀。
