Dialogue

英語(yǔ)情景對(duì)話

A:Can I help you?

A:我可以幫你嗎?

B:Yes, I need to buy a computer for this semester. I was told it is cheaper to buy computers here.

B:是的，這學(xué)期我需要買一臺(tái)電腦，人家告訴我這里的電腦比較便宜。

A:Well, you heard right. You can c excellent deal on a new computer We have great discounts for students.

A:的確，你聽說的沒錯(cuò)。在這兒買新電腦你可以拿到很不錯(cuò)的價(jià)格，我們給學(xué)生很大的折扣。

B:I don't know much about computers. But I know I want a desktop computer with a lot of memory. And I need a printer.

B:我對(duì)電腦了解不多，但是我知道我想要一臺(tái)有很大內(nèi)存的臺(tái)式電腦，而且我還要一臺(tái)打印機(jī)。

A:Well, first let's consider your computer. Here, for example, is a system I highly recommend-the Power Macintosh G3. it comes with 64 megabytes of total memory.

A:好的，我們先考慮你要的電腦。我極力推薦這兒的一套系統(tǒng)———麥金塔G3。它的總內(nèi)存為六十四兆。

B:Is that a lot? Sixty-four?

B:那很大嗎?六十四?

A:Yes, it is. It should be enough for any student needs you might have. What department are you in?

A:是的，對(duì)任何學(xué)生的需求應(yīng)該是足夠了。你是什么系的?

B:History.

B:歷史系。

A:Well, so you will mostly be using word processing, for writing papers. I recommend the Corel Word Perfect program for word processing. We can talk about software later. Let's talk about your hardware first. We have a special deal on right now. I should tell you about it, as it only goes until next Tuesday. If you buy one of these fifteen-inch color monitors with a Power Macintosh G3, you can actually get 30 percent off the usual sale price.

A:嗯.所以你會(huì)常用文字處理系統(tǒng)來寫論文。我推薦用Corel Word Perfect程式來做文字處理。我們待會(huì)再來談軟件，先談?dòng)布伞Ｎ覀儸F(xiàn)在有特價(jià)，我應(yīng)該告訴你，因?yàn)橹怀掷m(xù)到星期二為止。如果你購(gòu)買這套麥金塔G3系統(tǒng)的15寸彩顯的主機(jī)，事實(shí)上可以拿到平常售價(jià)的七折。

B:Thirty percent?

B:七折?

A:Yes.

A:是的。

B:Wow. That's really good. And you think this is really a good system for a graduate student?

B:哇，太好了。你覺得對(duì)一個(gè)研究生而言，這真是一個(gè)很好的系統(tǒng)嗎?

A:Yes. It's an excellent system.

A:是的，是很棒的系統(tǒng)。

B:Hmm. Hey, wait. This has an Apple on it. Is this an Apple computer?

B:嗯。嘿，等等，這上面有個(gè)蘋果標(biāo)志，這是蘋果電腦嗎?

A:Yes, it's a Macintosh. It's Apple. Mocintosh and Apple are the same thing.

A:是的，是麥金塔，就是蘋果機(jī)。麥金塔和蘋果機(jī)是一回事。

B:I don't want Macintosh. I want PC.

B:我不想要麥金塔，我要個(gè)人電腦。

A:I'm sorry, but our university computer center only sells Macintosh equipment.

A:很抱歉，但是我們大學(xué)電腦中心只賣麥金塔設(shè)備。

B:What? Are you serious?

B:什么?說真的嗎?

A:Yes.

A:是的。

B:But nobody uses Macintosh!

B:可是沒有人用麥金塔。

A:That's not true. Most of the students and professors in the university here use Macintosh. They find it is better for writing and word-processing, and that is what students mostly do. May I ask where you're from?

A:不會(huì)啊，這所大學(xué)大部分的學(xué)生和教授都用麥金塔。他們發(fā)現(xiàn)這套系統(tǒng)對(duì)寫作和文字處理比較好，而且大多數(shù)學(xué)生都在使用它。我可以問你從哪來的嗎?

B:Yes, I'm from Taiwan.

B:我是臺(tái)灣來的。

A:Well, I know that in most Asian countries Apple is not very popular. But here in America, especially in universities and publishing companies, Apple is very commonly used.

A:哦，我知道蘋果電腦在亞洲大多數(shù)的國(guó)家并不是很流行。但在美國(guó)這里，尤其是大學(xué)和出版社里，使用蘋果電腦是非常普遍的。

B:But I need a computer that can handle writing in Chinese.

B:但是我需要一臺(tái)可以處理中文寫作的電腦。

A:There are several Chinese writing programs you can use with Macintosh. Chinese is no problem for Apple.

A:有一些中文的寫作程式可以在麥金塔上使用，對(duì)蘋果電腦而言，中文不是問題。

B:Hmm. I think I should ask some of my friends for advice before I make a decision. I'm sorry.

B:嘿。我想在做決定前應(yīng)該請(qǐng)我一些朋友給點(diǎn)建議。很抱歉。

A:No, don't be sorry. It's reasonable to ask your friends. But believe me, most of the students here in the university-Asian students included-most of them use Apple.

A:不會(huì)，不需要抱歉。問你朋友是合理的，但是相信我，這所大學(xué)大多數(shù)的學(xué)生———包括亞洲的學(xué)生，大部分都使用蘋果電腦。

B:Well, thanks for your advice. I will probably come back later.

B:好的，謝謝你的建議，我可能之后會(huì)再回來。

A:You're very welcome. Here is my card, if you need any help.

A:非常歡迎。這是我的名片，如果你需要任何幫忙的話。
