关于购物的简单英语对话一
CAROL: I never understand why these shops have so much liquor.
JOHN: What do you mean? It's because it's much cheaper to buy liquor duty-free.
CAROL: But why? Why don't people like to buy shirts duty-free? Or shoes?
I just don't understand why it's always liquor.
JOHN: Well, it's because in most countries liquor has a higher tax on it.
CAROL: You mean liquor has a higher tax than other things?
JOHN: Yes, of course. Didn't you know that?
CAROL: No, I didn't. How high is the tax?
JOHN: Well, it is different in different countries.
But it's because of the high tax that buying liquor duty-free is such a good deal.
CAROL: Why would the government want to tax liquor so much?
JOHN: Liquor is considered a luxury item.
And also, it is considered as something that isn't very healthy.
So if people want to buy it, the government thinks it has the right to tax it.
CAROL: That's why a lot of people buy cigarettes here too, isn't it?
JOHN: Of course. Cigarettes are also taxed very heavily.
CAROL: Now I understand. But I don't smoke or drink.
So what am I supposed to buy in here?
JOHN: You can buy some of these nice butterflies.
CAROL: No, I'm sorry.
I don't think it is nice to have butterflies mounted in boxes.
It is kind of disgusting.
JOHN: What? You feel sorry for the butterflies?
CAROL: Yes. I think they should just let them fly free,
and not try to sell them to foreigners. It is a kind of destruction of nature.
JOHN: Well, I agree with you.
I'd rather think that the butterflies are flying around in the mountains.
I just wonder if they really catch so many that it affects the butterfly population.
CAROL: Who knows? Hey, I like these jade bears here.
JOHN: How much are they?
CAROL: This one is 2300 dollars.
Maybe I should buy it for my mother. What do you think?
JOHN: If you want. Didn't you buy her a small vase already?
CAROL: Yes, but she would like this a lot. She likes to collect little things like this.
JOHN: Alright. Buy it then.
I won't buy anything. Well, maybe I'll buy some Cognac.
CAROL: Maybe I could buy some Cognac for my brother. He always drinks it.
JOHN: Let's go ask about it.
参考译文:
卡罗:我从来不了解为什么这些店有这么多种类的酒。
约翰:什么意思?因为买免税的酒便宜很多。
卡罗:为什么?为何大家不喜欢买免税的衬衫或鞋子呢?我就是不懂为何总是酒类。
约翰:因为大部分的国家酒类含税比较高。
卡罗:你是指酒比其它物品含税更高吗?
约翰:是啊,当然。你不知道吗?
卡罗:我不知道。税有多高呢?
约翰:每个国家都不一样,但是因为酒类含税较高,所以买免税酒很划得来。
卡罗:为什么政府要扣酒类的税如此重呢?
约翰:酒类被视为是奢侈品。而且不是很健康的东西。
所以如果大家要采购的话,政府认为有权扣税。
卡罗:这也是很多人在这买香烟的原因,对不对?
约翰:当然,香烟的税也很重。
卡罗:现在我懂了,但是我又不抽烟或喝酒。那我应该在这买什么好呢?
约翰:你可以买这些不错的蝴蝶标本。
卡罗:不,很抱歉。我不想要拥有盒装的蝴蝶标本。有点恶心耶。
约翰:不会吧?你替蝴蝶感到难过吗?
卡罗:是的,我认为应该让他们自由地飞翔,而不是试着卖给外国人,这样有点破坏自然。
约翰:对,我同意你的说法。我宁愿这些蝴蝶在山林里飞舞着,我只是想知道他们捕捉这么多是否会影响蝴蝶的数目。
卡罗:谁知道?嘿,我比较喜欢这些玉熊。
约翰:这些多少钱?
卡罗:这个是两千三百美元。也许我应该买给我妈,你觉得呢?
约翰:想买就买吧,你不是已经买给她一个小花瓶了?
卡罗:是啊,但是她会很喜欢这个,她喜欢收集像这样的小东西。
约翰:好啊,那就买吧。我什么也不买,也许我会买一些白兰地酒。
卡罗:也许我可以买一些白兰地酒给我哥,他老是喝那个。
约翰:我们去问问吧!

关于购物的简单英语对话三
ELIZA: This place is great. I'm surprised they have so much.
JANE: Yes, but it takes a while to find things.
It's not organized as carefully as a regular store.
ELIZA: I never shopped in an outlet before. We don't have any in my hometown.
Why do they call it an "outlet"?
JANE: Sometimes a clothes company makes too many of one item.
They can't sell it all in their regular stores. So they send the overstock to an outlet.
That's why they call it an "outlet".
It's a store that "let's out" products the company can't sell in regular stores.
ELIZA: And they have faulty products here too.
JANE: Yes. A "faulty product" may be a shirt that has some problem.
Or a pair of pants that is ripped a little.
Sometimes the fault is very small. So it's a good deal to buy it.
Sometimes, if you have a needle and thread, you can fix it yourself.
ELIZA: I like to sew, so that's easy for me.
I think it's a really good deal. Some of these shirts have only one tiny mistake on them.
JANE: I know.
So it's a good idea to shop in an outlet sometimes. You can save a lot of money.
ELIZA: That's great for me.
Now that Steve and I have the baby, we want to save as much as we can.
CASHIER: Cash or credit, Ma'am?
ELIZA: Credit.
JANE: Wow! How many of those sweatshirts are you buying?
ELIZA: I have six here.
JANE: Six? Why do you need so many?
ELIZA: They're such a good deal.
I'm buying one for Steve, one for his brother Rick,
one for my dad, two for my sisters, and one for me.
JANE: You really know how to use an outlet store!
ELIZA: I ought to make the most of it while I'm here, don't you think?
JANE: Sure. You're smart.
