to reserve a flight 订机票
to reserve a hotel room 订旅馆
to reserve a table (for two) 订餐厅（两人）桌
to reserve a car 订出租车
2. do本身是一个动词，have也是动词。但是在这里，do没有实际意义，只是加强了have的语气，作用和一个副词相当。
Cultural Background 文化背景
旅馆的房间通常称为suite（套房），听起来会让人感觉房间比较高雅一些，它的这种内涵是room所没有的。
当我们说到地址、旅馆或公寓号码时，一般人常会将号码逐个念出来，如，three-twenty-one(321)，而不念成three hundred and twenty-one（三百二十一）。

Notes:
1. charge可以表达许多意思，包括“控诉”、“责令”、“负责”等，在这个句子中它表示收费的意思。

鲍勃：这个嘛，如果他已经准备好而且愿意的话，我会替他收钱的。
Notes:
1.“That’s awesome!”是美国俚语，在上世纪80年代很流行。awesome本意是指“引人敬畏的”，但现在人们都用它来表达跟 “That’s great!”或“That’s remarkable!”接近的意思。
2.condominium指大楼里可单独购买的一户。美国人常将condominium简称为condo。
3. 美国人除了替纽约市取个Gotham（愚人村，New York的俗称）的别名外，口语上也将纽约市称为 “the Big Apple ”。
4.“I am buying a...” 表达的并不是现在进行的事情，而是在计划的事情，即鲍勃计划买一张摺叠式的沙发。
5.“I wish you were…”是一个虚似语气的用法，表达与实际情况相反的意愿。
6.book可以用来描述为某事预先做安排，或是预约订位。gig是用于音乐表演的俚语。“book a lot of gigs”的意思是预先安排许多场音乐演奏会。

Notes:
1.“Are you taking a taxi or public transportation?”不是询问对方正在进行的情况，而是询问对方将作何打算。

拉 里：谢谢！
贾斯丁：不对，不对！等等！不要那样走！我刚刚想起来，那是条单行
道，你不能在那里右转。
拉 里：可以再说一次吗？
贾斯丁：好的，首先沿着第五街到第二十三街，也就是百老汇街与第五街交会的地方；然后穿过一个街区到红绿灯的地方。不要在第一条街右转。要在第二条街左转，开进百老汇街。
拉 里：抱歉，我听不懂。
贾斯丁：这里是第五街，这里是百老汇街。博物馆在王子街与百老汇街的交会处。
Notes:
1. 以元音开头的名词前的冠词应该用an，但要记住判断元音时要以音标为准，而不是以字母，所以虽然one-way是以元音字母开头的，但因为one发/wQn/，所以用的是a。又例如honor，因为h在词中不发音，所以单词是以元音/C/开头的，冠词应用an。
2. cross除了可以当名词和形容词外，还可以当及物动词，表示“交叉”的意思。
3.Block不是标准的长度测量单位。它指城市中一般长度的街道，也可以指由四条街围起来的市区。
4.这句话和“turn left at the second street”表达的意思一样，不过听起来就地道多了。
5. “at Prince and Broadway”是一种简化了的说法，完整的句子应该是“at the place where Prince crosses Broadway”。
