你为什么买一辆德国产的车？
Eric: Well, I have been doing a lot of camping and touring on my motorcycle so this big motorcycle is able to carry a lot of weight comfortably and even safely and also this motorcycle is wind-tunnel tested so it does really really nicely on the motorway. I commute to work on the motorwayfour days a week so it is really good for that.
Mark: Right, and when you go touring, you go camping, is that right?
是的，你刚刚说你会骑车去旅行和野营，是吗？

所以说你是沿着蜿蜒的山路上去，找到一个有着美景的地方，然后就安营扎寨是吗？

恩，通常我之前会有一个去哪的构想，不过我也喜欢沿着有着美景的蜿蜒的山路走。
Mark: A lot of people only know the part of China from Shanghai down to Xiamen; this kind of built-up urban coastal area, but they don’t realize that a huge area of this country is mountains and winding roads and deserted villages. I just love the Chinese mountains.
