地道美語聽力播客619:手機套餐（雙語）

Paul: I need a new cell phone plan. These roaming and overage charges are killing me!

保羅:我需要一個新的手機套餐。手機漫游，超額收費太貴了，我受不了啊!

Shauna: I thought you had a good calling, messaging, and data plan.

肖娜：我認為你現(xiàn)在打電話，發(fā)短信，和流量套餐都很實惠啊。

Paul: I do, but I’m still going over each month.

保羅:是很實惠，但是我每月還是會超啊。

Shauna: Have you thought about a prepaid plan? You’ll never be charged extra.

肖娜：你想沒想過換一個預付套餐，那樣你就永遠都不會再支付額外費用了。

Paul: That’s not an option. I think I need an unlimited plan.

保羅:這個不行，我感覺我需要一個無限制套餐。

Shauna: Okay, but I don’t understand. Why do you have roaming charges? Doesn’t your carrier have good coverage all over the country?

肖娜：好吧，但是我不知道，你為什么會有漫游費呢?你的移動信號未覆蓋全國嗎?

Paul: I’ve been taking trips to Mexico to see my new girlfriend and the coverage doesn’t extend to Mexico.

保羅:我去了幾趟墨西哥，移動信號并未覆蓋到墨西哥。

Shauna: Oh, I see. And the overage charges?

肖娜：哦，原來是這樣啊。那超額收費又是怎么回事?

Paul: When you’re in a long-distance relationship, you have to do a lot of calling and texting, not to mention updating social media websites to stay in touch. I keep exceeding my allotted 5000 minutes of calling time and 100 megabytes of data.

保羅:當你處于一段異地戀中，你就要打很多電話，發(fā)很多短信，更不要提還要一直更新社交網(wǎng)站來保持聯(lián)系啦。我的套餐里有5000分鐘的通話和100兆流量，但是我還是不夠用。

Shauna: What?! To exceed that, you’d have to be on the phone all the time!

肖娜：什么?這都不夠用，你一定是一直在打電話。

Paul: Not all the time, but I’m talking to her now. Do you want to say “hi”?

保羅:不是一直啊，但現(xiàn)在我正在和她打電話。你想打個招呼嗎?

Shauna: You’ve been on the phone with her the entire time we’ve been having this conversation?

肖娜：我們談話的這整段時間，你都在和她著打電話啊?

Paul: How else can we keep up on everything that’s going on in each other’s lives?

保羅:要不我們怎么與對方分享彼此生活里的每件事呢?
