今天的這段對話，在討論討價還價，
 
怎么看待在中國買東西時討價還價的行為
 
來聽今天的講解:
 
A: Hey, Robert, that's a nice shirt you are wearing. Where did you get it?
 
嗨,羅伯特.你身上這件襯衫不錯,在哪里買的?
 
B: thanks, I like it too. I bought it at the nearby department store.
 
謝謝,我也挺喜歡這件襯衫的,就在附近的商場里買的.
 
A: that's nice. Do you know you can get one at the wholesale market near the zoo for a much lower price?
 
挺好的.不過你知道要在動物園旁邊的批發(fā)市場里買,還會便宜很多嗎?
 
B: yeah, I know that. But at those places. the prices they ask you are ridiculously high, and if you don't bargain hard, you will get ripped-off.
 
是的,我知道.但是在那些地方,通常他們的要加都很高,要是你不還價的話,你就會被狠宰一頓.
 
A: true, learning how to haggle the price is one of the things people have to pick up when they come to China for the first time.
 
的確是,第一次來中國,人們最開始要學會的東西中有一樣就是還價.
 
B: yeah, but personally, I hate bargaining. If I bargain,I might come to a lower price, but I will never konw the true price of what I am buying; and I always have the feeling that I am overcharged at those places.
 
是的，但就我個人而言，我討厭討價還價。如果我討價還價，我可能會得到更低的價格，但我永遠不會知道我所買東西的真實價格；我總是覺得在那些地方我被多收了錢。
 
A: yeah, I have the same feeling. Also there is another thing that bothers me the quality. Things in a department store are usually quality-guaranteed. But at a wholesale market, you never know whether what you are buying are of good quality or not.
 
是的，我也有同樣的感覺。還有一件事困擾著我，那就是質量。百貨商店里的東西通常都有質量保證。但在批發(fā)市場，你永遠不知道你買的東西質量是否好。
 
B: that's why I like department stores more. Shopping at a wholesale market like the locals is one of the few things I am unable to grow accustomd to.
 
這就是為什么我更喜歡在商場里沒東西,我就總是做不到像當?shù)厝艘粯釉谂l(fā)市場里購物,真的不習慣.
 
A: I understand. While it's always good to follow the local customs, I guess there are exceptions.
 
我明白.盡管按照當?shù)氐牧曀讈碜龊芎?可是我也覺得應該有例外的情況.
