外国留学找公寓常用英语
下面是整理的外国留学找公寓常用英语,欢迎大家阅读!
LARRY: I really appreciate your driving me around.
CONRAD: It's no problem. I have time today, and I think it's important that you find a good place.
LARRY: It would be hard for just me to do it. I don't know the city at all.
CONRAD: So what do you see in there?
LARRY: This one sounds good. "Efficiency with view of the lake." Utilities and parking included. Newly remodeled kitchen. $470.
CONRAD: Can you afford that much?
LARRY: No, I guess not. But that's what I want, isn't it? An efficiency.
CONRAD: Yes, an efficiency is a small apartment.
Usually one large room and a small bathroom. There is often a small kitchen too. So it's good for one person.
LARRY: How about this one? "Downtown efficiency. Furnished..." What does furnished mean?
CONRAD: That means the apartment has furniture in it.
LARRY: That's good.
CONRAD: Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad. You have to like the furniture.
LARRY: "Furnished. Parking included. $400."
CONRAD: It's still pretty expensive.
LARRY: Yes, but it's downtown. I would like to take look at this one.
CONRAD: Alright. What's the phone number?
LARRY: 256-7797.
CONRAD: Got it. What else do you see?
LARRY: This one. "Two male grad students seeking roommate." Must be quiet. Comfortable downtown apartment." Does this mean I have to share a room with them?
CONRAD: No. It probably means they have a large apartment. Probably a living room, kitchen and three bedrooms. They need someone for the empty bedroom.
LARRY: That sounds alright.
CONRAD: Yes, it might be an advantage for you. You are a foreigner, after all. If they're alright roommates, you could learn a lot from them.
LARRY: Here's the number, 256-4367.
CONRAD: Got it. Let's call these two and see if we can make appointments to see the apartments.
LARRY: Sounds good to me. I really appreciate your help on this.
CONRAD: Don't mention it, Larry. What are friends for anyway?
赖瑞:我真的很感谢你开车带我绕一绕。
康若德:没关系的。我今天有时间,我也认为你能找到一个好地方住是很重要的。
赖瑞:我自己来做的话会比较难。我对这个城市并不了解。
康若德:那你看到了些什么?
赖瑞:这一个听起来不错。套房且有湖的景观。水电及停车都包含在内,新装潢过的厨房,四百七十美元。
康若德:你能负担得起吗?
赖瑞:不,我想不行。但那就是我要的,是吧?一间“套房”。
康若德:对,套房的意思是一间小的公寓。通常是一间大的房间和一间小的浴室。往往还有一间小厨房,所以一个人住是不错的。
赖瑞:这一个怎么样?“市中心套房,含家具...”,“含家具”是什么意思?
康若德:那间公寓是含家具的。
赖瑞:很好。
康若德:有的时候是不错的,有时是不好的。你必须喜欢那些家
