地道美语听力播客879：和街头小贩砍价

和街头小贩砍价

Sean: Just look at the quality of that. You won’t find a finer one anywhere.

肖恩：看看质量。你在任何地方都找不到比这更好的了。

Patrice: It’s nice, but it’s more than I want to spend.

帕特里斯：很好。但是超出我的预算了。

Sean: Okay, just for you, I’ll knock off 10%. What do you say?

肖恩：为了你，我在降价10%。你看怎么样?

Patrice: I think it’s still too pricey. I think I’ll pass.

帕特里斯：我认为还是太贵了。我觉得还是算了吧。

Sean: Wait! Don’t be so hasty. What you have there is a one-of-a-kind item. You don’t want to pass up something this special.

肖恩：等等。别这么轻率。你拿的是一个独一无二的商品。你不想错过这么特别的东西吧。

Patrice: I’ll think about it…

帕特里斯：我想想....

Sean: How about if I throw in a second one for the same price, a two-for-one offer?

肖恩：再来一件，我以同样的价卖给你，两件同一个价格?

Patrice: I thought you said this was one-of-a-kind.

帕特里斯：我认为你刚刚说这是独一件的。

Sean: Did I? I meant to say that there aren’t many out there like it. I just happen to have two. How about it?

肖恩：我说了吗?我的意思是其他地方没有这样的。我碰巧有两件。怎么样?

Patrice: I think I’ll shop around first.

帕特里斯：我觉得我还是先逛逛吧。

Sean: This offer is only good right now, so don’t walk away.

肖恩：现在这个价位真的很好，所以别走啊

Patrice: Like I said, I’ll think about it…

帕特里斯：就像我刚说的，我要想想....

Sean: All right. Name your price. Make me a reasonable offer and I’ll let you have it.

肖恩：好的。说说你的价钱。如果我觉得价钱合理的话，我就让卖给你。

Patrice: How about 30% off?

帕特里斯：在降30%怎么样?

Sean: That’s highway robbery! I’m just a street vendor trying to make a living here.

肖恩：那简直是拦路抢劫。我只是一个在这里谋生的街头小贩。

Patrice: Take it or leave it.

帕特里斯：不行就算了吧。

Sean: All right, you have a deal. You drive a hard bargain. You wouldn’t be looking for a job, would you?

肖恩：好吧。成交。你砍价真狠。你不会是正在找工作吧!?
