问题 Why doesn’t Mark like London?
  
TODD: OK, Mark, we’ve been talking about places that you’re travelled, things that you have done. What about people that go to your country, England? Can you recommend three or four good places to go to in England?
MARK: Well, obviously, most people should visit London. Personally, I don’t like London. It’s too busy and too expensive.
TODD: But, wait a minute, you’re saying that people should visit it but you don’t like it. Why?
MARK: They should visit it because you have to go once to see all the famous places, such as Big Ben, Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace, just to say you’ve been. My favourite place is in the North of England. It’s called the Lake District.
TODD: The Lake District.
MARK: Yeah, it’s very, very beautiful. Famous for Peter Rabbit. Do you know Peter Rabbit?
TODD: Yeah, the fairy tale.
MARK: That’s right. The children’s character. Yeah. The writer, Beatrice Potter, was born in the Lake District, so that’s how she got her inspiration.
TODD: So if you go to the Lake District, now are you talking about camping or do you stay in a bed-and-breakfast?
MARK: Yeah, you can stay in a bed-and-breakfast. You can camp. You can stay in pubs or inns, or there are many hotels. It’s very organised for the tourists in the Lake District. And it’s not such a big area, so you can travel around there by bus, or by car. Pretty easy.
TODD: OK. Any more?
MARK: The city of York in Yorkshire is very beautiful. That was famous for the Vikings in the old days, so it has a beautiful big cathedral and all the old Viking walls. So if you like history then England is a beautiful place to visit. You have Stratford-upon-Avon for Shakespeare, and Oxford which is a famous old university city.
TODD: OK, well. Sounds good. Thanks, Mark.
