Bonus translation exercise 5 (tour guiding)



With a nickname like the “Hamptons of Germany,” it’s only a matter of time before jet-setters discover the North Sea island of Sylt. Known for its nudist beaches, reed-thatched houses and designer stores, the T-shaped island has long been popular with German celebrities, particularly television stars and sports figures. But now getting there is a simple hop from London and a dozen other European cities, thanks to the low-cost carrier Air Berlin.

有著像德國漢普頓一樣的美稱,喜爾特北海島遲早都會被名流人物發現的。因為裸體海灘、蘆葦搭蓋的房子和商店,以及T字型的島嶼聞名,這座小島已經成為德國上流貴族的最愛,尤其是電視明星和運動員。現在從倫敦以及十二個歐洲城市要抵達那座小島已經是家常便飯了,這些都要感謝價格便宜的德國航空。

以"德國版漢普敦"的暱稱來看, 被好野人發現北海濟耳特島也只是時間早晚的問題.
因為天體海灘, 蘆葦小屋以及精品店,和丁字型的外觀所名聞遐邇,他早就成為德國名流的最愛,特別是小銀幕影星和運動界名人.
現在,託物廉價美的德國航空之福,從倫敦或其他的歐洲主要大城來到這裡,已經不須長途跋涉了.

旅遊指南
大約在深度旅遊家發現北海系爾特島之後,德國福爾摩沙的名號逐漸響亮。以裸體海灘、葦草屋、創意小舖、與丁字型島與風靡於德國名流之間,尤其是電視明星與體育名將更為之瘋狂。而現在,柏林航空公司推出低價方案更是縮短了倫敦等許多歐洲城市來到此旅遊勝地的距離。

因有著’德國的漢普頓”別稱,不需多久的時間,有錢又有閒的名流們很快地發現了位於濟耳特北海島嶼 o這座以裸體泳灘, 蘆葦屋頂度假飯店,和精品店聞名的T型島嶼已在德國名流,特別是電視明星,運動界的風雲人物中風靡了許久o不過現在要去到那裡享受悠閒已是易如反掌的事,無論你在倫敦或其他12個歐洲國家便可輕鬆不費時地到達,這都要歸功於柏林航空公司o
