B：你好，我叫約翰，我打電話是想問一下公寓出租的情況。我在網(wǎng)上看到了你們的廣告。

B: Great. Where is the apartment located?
B：太好了。公寓在哪里？

A: the address is 345 south street apartment C. It is across from the library and right next door to the pizza restaurant.
A：地址是南街 345 號 C 公寓，在圖書館對面，披薩店隔壁。

B: I know exactly where that is. That's a great location
B：我知道在哪兒。位置很好

A:Yes I find it very convenient. And what is the rent
A：是的，我覺得非常方便。租金是多少？

B: it's 800 dollars per month. So your half would be 400 dollars

A: How about 5 PM today?

B: So John I've prepared a few questions to see if you'd be a good match as a roommate. Are you ready?
B：約翰，我準(zhǔn)備了幾個問題，看看你是否適合做室友。你準(zhǔn)備好了嗎？

A: Go for it.
A：準(zhǔn)備好了。

B: Okay, first of all are you a smoker?
B：好的，首先你吸煙嗎？

A: I am not a smoker, do you smoke?
A：我不抽煙，你抽煙嗎？

B: I don't and I'm really glad you don't either. I would prefer to keep the apartment smoke free.

B: Perfect. Next are you a night owl or an early bird?
B：太好了。接下來你是夜貓子還是早起鳥？

A: I tend to get up early because I like to get to the gym early and work out most days. I've always liked staying active and fit.
A：我喜歡早起，因?yàn)槲蚁矚g早早去健身房鍛煉。我一直喜歡保持活躍和健康。

B: Great I'm an early bird as well, and I like to run in the morning whenever I get the chance. How often would you plan on having friends or family visit? Are you very outgoing?
B：太好了，我也是早起的鳥兒，只要有機(jī)會，我就喜歡晨跑。你打算多久請朋友或家人來一次？你很外向嗎？

A: I would probably have friends over a few nights a week, but I wouldn't host a lot of parties, I'm pretty laid back and prefer a night of playing cards with friends rather than a loud and crazy dance party. My little brother will probably come visit a few times a year but he is really friendly and easy to get along with.
A: 我可能一周會有幾個晚上有朋友來，但我不會舉辦很多派對，我很悠閑，更喜歡和朋友打牌，而不是喧鬧瘋狂的舞會。我的弟弟每年可能會來幾次，但他真的很友好，很容易相處。

B: that sounds good. I do host a few parties a year but otherwise I too just have a few friends over every once in a while. How old is your brother?
B：聽起來不錯。我每年都會舉辦幾次聚會，但除此之外，我也只是偶爾請幾個朋友來玩玩。你弟弟多大了？

A: He is 16. He might be coming to college here in a few years. Do you have siblings?
A：他 16 歲。過幾年他可能會來這里上大學(xué)。你有兄弟姐妹嗎？

B: I have a brother too but he is older than me, he's married and has kids so he will not be visiting me any time soon.
B: 我也有一個哥哥，但他比我大，他已經(jīng)結(jié)婚生子了，所以他不會很快來看我。
