Morning everyone, thanks for coming. Now, from next week there'll be a rota for all of you to help out at the information stand here at Brookside Market.
各位早上好,感谢你们的到来。下周你们开始轮班,在布鲁克塞德市场的咨询台帮忙。
So, I just wanted to give you a briefing about what you can find where.
我只是想简单向你们介绍一下各地点。
The information booth is to the left of the entrance and I've given you all a plan to mark important places on.
问讯处在入口左侧,我之前已经给你们一份平面图了,来标记重要的位置。
One of the most common enquiries is where can I pay for my parking? People are amazed when we tell them that it's free now.
人们问得最多的一处是“我在哪里付停车费?” 当我们告诉他们现在时免费停车的时候,他们都很惊讶。
We used to charge for it and there was a ticket booth to the left of the entrance, but now that it's been turned into a small stage, we hold cookery demonstrations there.
我们以前是收费的,售票处在入口左侧,但现在已经被改建成一个小展台了,我们在这儿做厨艺演示。
Local chefs come in and show people how to prepare dishes.
会有本地的主厨过来向人们展示怎么做菜。
It's really popular and you get a nice view of the fountain there.
这很流行,而且在这儿你能好好欣赏喷泉。
We have over 50 stalls at the markets, selling everything from fresh fruit and vegetables to locally made crafts, which unfortunately means people won't find things like books or anything second-hand.
我们在市场里有超过50个摊位,任何新鲜果蔬和本地手工艺品都有,不幸的是这也意味着人们在这儿找不到书或别的二手物品。
We have a famous baker at the market and many people get here really early just to buy his produce.
我们市场里有一位非常有名的面包师,很多人早早来这儿就是为了买他的产品。
His stall is located at the back of the markets next to the barbecue.
他的摊位在市场后方,烧烤摊旁边。
We sell burgers and sausages there but a lot of people like to bring their own lunch to eat and they're welcome to go to the special area near the tree in the middle of the markets where they can do just that.
我们在这儿也卖汉堡和香肠,但很多人喜欢自带午餐,我们很欢迎他们到专门的区域,在市场的中心,大树旁边,在那儿他们可以享用自己的午餐。
It's handy for the toilets too.
要上厕所也很方便。
The markets are located next to a circus school that holds classes for children at the weekend, so we often get a lot of family groups in.
学校处在一家马戏学校旁边,周末为儿童开课,所以我们通常会有很多家庭群体来这儿。
There's a playground on the right-hand side that's popular with them, and just in front of that is where the farmers bring along chickens, rabbits and lambs for the children to pet.
右手边有个操场,很受他们欢迎,而且就在操场前面,农民会把鸡、兔子和羊羔带来,让孩子们与之玩耍。
That's always a very popular feature so you'll definitely be asked about that.
这项特色总是尤其受人欢迎,所以你们肯定会被问到。
Just let people know there is a small fee if the children want to feed them. Well, that's everything for now.
记得告诉人们,如果孩子们想给动物喂食,要收取些许费用。暂时来说就是这些事情了。
