Dave: what can we do for you?
Peter: I am planning a trip for my summer vacation. But I can't make up my mind as to which city I should go. It is really hard to decide.
Tony: Hehehe...decision decision,ok, maybe three heads are better than one. what are the choices?
Peter: Hangzhou, Suzhou, and yangzhou
Dave: I went to Suzhou last year. I had very bad experiences there. The taxi drivers were rude. The hotel services were lousy and the food was...
Tony: I had bad experiences there too.
Peter: all right, forget Suzhou then. How about Hangzhou and Yangzhou?
Dave: I have never been there. I can't make any comments on that. Let's check out the information from Xiehang(携成网) and it will tell us all necessary information.
Tony: We can log on line and find all the information we need.
Peter: great!
So Peter and Dave and Tony check out the information on net.
Dave: Peter, you can see that the airlines, hotels are not offering any discounts if you want to go to Hangzhou as it is the peak seson in summer. But if you go to Yangzhou, you can get big discounts on the hotels.
Tony: Right. I think you should take that into consideration.
Peter: you are right. I really hate to go to a scenery packed with people.I can always pick a better time to go to Hangzhou.right?
Dave: absolutely.
Peter: so I will book the ticket and the hotel right now. Thank you so much, Dave and Tony!
Dave: that's what friends are for. hope you have a good time in Yangzhou.
