商務(wù)英語播客第113課:租車
Business travelers can't always get where they need to go by catching a plane or taking a taxi. Sometimes we need our own means of transport, and that usually means renting a car. So, in this ESL podcast we'll cover language you can use when choosing a car, discussing features and clarifying insurance options.
