Danny:Last week, I tried to buy some books online, but I didn't know how to pay for them?
上周,我試著在網(wǎng)上買(mǎi)幾本書(shū),卻不知道該怎么付錢(qián)。

你得先在網(wǎng)上銀行開(kāi)一個(gè)賬戶。然后,你就可以上網(wǎng)買(mǎi)東西了。
Danny:Are there many things online?
網(wǎng)上的商品多嗎?
Cindy:Sure. You can find everything all over the world. Let's check it out online!(They log in a shopping web site.)
當(dāng)然了。你能買(mǎi)到全世界所有的東西。我們來(lái)上網(wǎng)看看吧。(她們點(diǎn)進(jìn)了一個(gè)購(gòu)物網(wǎng)站。)
Danny:Oh, what's this? Second-hand cellphone store?
哦,這是什么?二手手機(jī)商店?
Cindy:Yeah, this one is very famous with a good credit among on-line customers. It's like an open free market. If you want to change your cellphone for a new one, you can sell the old one here.
是啊,這家店很有名,它在網(wǎng)上顧客中有很好聲譽(yù)。它就像是一個(gè)開(kāi)放的市場(chǎng)。如果你想換一個(gè)新的手機(jī),你可以到這里來(lái)把你的舊手機(jī)賣(mài)掉。
Danny:Really? How to do that?
真的嗎?怎么賣(mài)呢?
Cindy:Take some pictures of the thing you want to sell, then upload it onto line with a brief description about it and leave your connecting number. Then your stuff will be sold by auction.
先給你要賣(mài)的東西拍幾張照片,把照片上傳到網(wǎng)上,再附上物品的簡(jiǎn)要說(shuō)明和你的聯(lián)系方式,這樣你的東西就會(huì)按照拍賣(mài)的方式在這里出售了。
Danny:That's amazing. I'd love to try it later. Oh, an on-line virtual supermarket?
這真是太棒了。我以后一定要試一試。哦,有個(gè)網(wǎng)上虛擬超市?
Cindy:Let's click to check it out.
我們點(diǎn)擊進(jìn)去看看。
Danny:Oh, I got it. It simulates the real supermarket, which makes it feel so real. Mom will love it. She loves shopping in supermarkets.
哦,明白了。它是仿照了真的超市,這使它像真的一樣。我媽媽會(huì)很喜歡的。她最愛(ài)逛超市了。
Cindy:No doubt about it. Shopping online will get more and more popular. It's a real revolution about people's consuming habits.
毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)。網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物會(huì)越來(lái)越流行的。這是人們消費(fèi)習(xí)慣上的一場(chǎng)真正的革命。
Danny:Are there any disadvantages about it?
那它有什么不足呢?
Cindy:It takes some time for the stuff you buy online to arrive. But I think this problem will be solved soon.
你在網(wǎng)上買(mǎi)的東西需要一點(diǎn)時(shí)間才能到你手中。不過(guò)我想這個(gè)問(wèn)題很快就會(huì)被解決的。 |
