实战口语情景对话 第405期:Bargains 便宜货品(在线收听) |
I'm an English teacher in Japan and when I first came here I didn't really have very much money so I found things quite expensive and I went out looking for cheap bargains. I came across a shop and it called the 100 Yen shop. It's absolutely fantastic. 100 Yen is about 50 p, 50 pence that is. I think that's about 1 dollar, and you go in there and everything is 100 yen. You can buy all sorts of things in a 100 yen shop. You can buy food. You can buy things for your house, things for your bathroom, your kitchen. You can buy ornaments and stationary and things like shampoo. I really, really like to get a bargain and when I go in and I know that I've found something and it's worth buying, I really, really get excited about it, and it sends shivers down my spine. We have a shop in Britain and it's quite similar to the 100 yen shop. It's called Pound Land and so everything in it is 1 pound. Not everything is a real bargain. 我在日本当英语老师,我第一次来这里的时候,我没有太多钱,所以我觉得东西非常贵,于是我就去四处寻找便宜的东西,我偶然发现一家商店,名为100日元店。那简直太棒了。100日元大概是50便士。我想100日元大概是1美元,走进店里你会发现店内的所有商品都只要100日元。你可以在100日元店买到各种东西。你可以在那里买到食物,也可以买到你的房子需要的东西,买到浴室、厨房里需要用到的东西。你还可以买到装饰品、文具和洗发水这样的东西。我真的很想能买到便宜货,而我走进这家店以后发现,我确实找到了一些值得买的东西,我真的对此感到非常兴奋,这让我非常激动。我们英国有一种类似于100日元店的商店。商店名为一磅店,顾名思义,这家店里的商品都只要1英镑。但并不是所有东西都很划算。
Some things are really pretty rubbish but if you do find a bargain, it's great. It reminds me really of what we have in Britain called car boot sales. They are places where people go and they feel their cars full of things that they don't want anymore and they sell them and people look through other people's items and they find the things that they want to buy and they barter, so they try and get things for a cheap price. It's really good though when you get a bargain. How do you feel about that?
有些东西的质量真的非常不好,但是如果你能买到便宜货,那还是不错的。这使我想到英国的跳蚤市场。人们如果觉得他们车里装满了东西,而他们又不再需要那些东西了,那他们就会去跳蚤市场把这些东西卖掉,他们会去看其他人卖的东西,如果他们找到了想买的东西,那他们就会进行交换,他们试图以低价获得某些东西。在你想买便宜货的时候这是种非常不错的方法。你们怎么认为呢? |
