亨利和朋友莎莉谈论网上购物
- S: Do you do a lot of your shopping online?
- 莎莉:你经常上网购物吗?
- H: Not really. I like looking at what's available on the Internet before I actually buy it. Sometimes, I'll choose what I want in a shop, later buying it online if it's cheaper. You don't like buying things online, do you?
- 亨利:谈不上,我喜欢先上网查看有货再去购买。有时,我会去商店挑选所要的东西,如果网上的便宜就上网买。你不喜欢网购,是吗?
- S: No. I'm a little worried about security issues. You never know who's trying to find you're your codes and passwords. Aren't you worried about that?
- 莎莉:是,我有点担心网购安全问题。你无法知道谁在窥探你的密码。难道你不担心吗?
- H: Not really. I know that it happens, but if you buy from reputable companies with securewebsites, it should be OK. Even though I use online shopping facilities, I don't think it's the best way.
- 亨利:不担心啊。我知道这种事情会发生,但如果你从安全网站的知名公司购物就没问题。虽然我网购,但我并不认为这是最佳途径。
- S: I'm surprised to hear you say that. I thought you loved any digital things.
- 莎莉:听你这么说,我很吃惊。我以为你对任何数字化的东西都喜爱。
- H: I do. I'm a big fan of using new digital products, but I don't want to sit in front of a computer screen all day. I think people need to get out and interact with other people.
- 亨利:是喜欢,我是最新数字化产品爱好者,但也不想整天坐在电脑屏幕前面,我认为人们要走出去和其他人交流。
- S: So, how about coming to the department store with me? I want to see if there are any new summer clothes on sale yet.
- 莎莉:那么跟我去百货商店怎么样?我想看看是否有新款夏装打折。
- H: Sure. I'd love to join you. Can we stop by the computer store? I just want to see if they have something.
- 亨利:当然了,我想跟你去。我们能否顺路去下电脑商店?我想看看是否有什么可以买的。
- S: Sure. While you're in the computer store, I will visit the book store opposite. I like to browse through their books if they have anything interesting.
- 莎莉:当然可以。你去电脑商店,我就到对面的书店,我想浏览一下那里的书,看看有什么合适的。
- H: OK. I've finished online. Let's go. I'll just get some money and my credit card.
- 亨利:好,我上完网了,一起走吧。我要带点钱和信用卡。
- S: Thanks for reminding me. I had forgotten to get mine.
- 莎莉:谢谢你提醒我,我都忘带了。
