听力原文:Pete: Hey Markus. I have a question I'd like to ask you.
Markus: Yes. Go ahead.
Pete: Well,I'm thinking about going to Germany this summer,and I need some advice. You're the best person I know to answer my questions since you're German.
Markus: Thank you. What do you want to know?
Pete: Well,don't laugh,but I met this really nice woman through an online music mailing list,you know,a discussion group on the Internet. I need some advice. You see,Claudia,…
Markus: Okay. So it's Claudia,oh?
Pete: Yeah,yeah. See,she invited me to spend two weeks in Germany. And well,I told her I had studied a little bit about the country and language。and she's kind of expecting that I know more than I really do.
Markus: Hum. You're really in hot water now!
Pete: Yeah. I think so.
Markus: Well,what do you want to know?
Pete: Well,she's planning on introducing me to her parents.
Markus: Hey. Sounds kind of serious.
Pete: It isn't,at least I think it isn't. Anyway,what should you do when you greet someone for the first time in Germany?
Markus: Well,it depends upon your relationship with the person. Now,speaking of your girlfriend, Claudia…. .
Pete: Hey,I didn't say she was my girlfriend.
Markus: Ah,okay,okay. Now if you're meeting someone formally for the first time,like Claudia's parents, you should make sure you arrive on time.
Pete: Okay,so arrive on time. Uh,what about common greetings?
Markus: Well,Germans often shake hands,and they use the person's family name,unless they're really close friends.
Pete: Okay,what about with Claudia?I'm not sure what I should do in her case.
Markus: Ah. You can call her Claudia,shake hands,and why don't you take her some flowers?
Pete: Oh,how do you say“Nice to meet you”anyway?
Markus: Oh,“Ich freue mich,Sie kennenzulernen. ”
Pete: “Ich freu me senselen…?”
Markus: Uhhh. Not exactly. “Ich freue mich,Sie kennenzulernen”.
Markus: Humm. Honestly,I think you need to take a crash course in German before you leave. Claudia might think you're speaking Chinese or something if you don't.
