實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：House on Loan 租借房屋

Katie: Hey Todd, can I ask you a favor?

凱蒂：嘿，托德，能請你幫個忙嗎?

Todd: Sure, anytime.

托德：當然可以，隨時都行。

Katie: Um, I really need a place to stay, and I heard that your house is on AirBNB.

凱蒂：嗯，我需要個住的地方，我聽說你的房子在AirBNB網站上出租。

Todd: It is on AirBNB. I do rent my house, but for you it's free.

托德：沒錯。我在出租房子，不過你可以免費住。

Katie: OH, amazing. Can I stay there then?

凱蒂：哦，那太好了。我能住在那里嗎?

Todd: You can. How long?

托德：可以。你要住多長時間?

Katie: Maybe a week or two weeks.

凱蒂：大概一周或兩周。

Todd: OK, when?

托德：好，從什么時候開始?

Katie: From next Monday.

凱蒂：從下周一開始。

Todd: Yeah, actually, you can do that. That works.

托德：好，你可以去住。沒問題。

Katie: Excellent. Thank you so much! How about a car? Can I park my car?

凱蒂：太棒了。太感謝你了!那車呢?有停車的地方嗎?

Todd: Ah, that's a problem. You can't park your car because there's no space, but there's a cheap parking lot about maybe two blocks away.

托德：停車是個問題。沒辦法停車，因為沒有地方，不過兩個街區(qū)之外有一個便宜的停車場。

Katie: OK.

凱蒂：好。

Todd: So, it's only a couple dollars a day.

托德：停車費一天只要幾美元。

Katie: OK, I guess I can park my car there. How about cooking there? Can I cook?

凱蒂：好，我想我可以把車停在那里。那能做飯嗎?我可以在你家里做飯嗎?

Todd: Of course, you can cook. I have a stove, a frigerator. You can bring your own food. You can do whatever you want.

托德：當然可以了，你可以做飯。我有灶具和冰箱。你可以帶食物過來。你可以做任何你想做的事情。

Katie: Excellent. Thank you. Can I use the Internet?

凱蒂：太好了。謝謝你。我可以用網嗎?

Todd: You can use the Internet. There's a password. I will write down the password before I leave, and I will write down the password before you get there.

托德：可以。我家的網需要密碼。我在離開前會把密碼寫給你，在你到那里之前，我會把密碼寫下來。

Katie: Excellent. Thank you so much! I was thinking about asking my friend if he can stay. Can my friend stay over?

凱蒂：真好。太謝謝你了!我想請朋友過來住。我朋友能住下嗎?

Todd: Yeah, sure, so your friend can stay. Not a problem I don't think.

托德：可以，你朋友可以住下。我想那不是問題。

Katie: He has a dog? Can he bring his dog?

凱蒂：他養(yǎng)了只狗。他能把狗帶來嗎?

Todd: Oh, that is a problem. Does the dog have a cage?

托德：哦，那是個問題。他有狗籠嗎?

Katie: Ah, no, but we can get a cage.

凱蒂：沒有，不過我們可以找個狗籠。

Todd: I'm not sure about the dog. If the dog is in a cage, it's OK in the house but I think you can't have the dog in the house.

托德：帶狗過來這件事，我不確定。如果他的狗在狗籠里，那我覺得沒問題，可以帶到我家去，不過不能讓狗出狗籠，在房子里待著。

Katie: OK, how about smoking? My friend is a very heavy smoker. Can he smoke outside?

凱蒂：好，那可以抽煙嗎?我朋友煙癮很大。他能在房子外抽煙嗎?

Todd: Yeah, he can smoke outside, just please pick up cigarette butts, but of course, he can't smoke inside.

托德：可以，他可以在外面抽煙，請把煙頭撿起來，另外，他不能在房子里抽煙。

Katie: OK, he can't smoke inside.

凱蒂：好，他不能在房子里抽煙。

Todd: No.

托德：對。

Katie: OK, how about if we want to have a party? Can we have a party?

凱蒂：那如果我們想辦派對呢?我們能辦派對嗎?

Todd: Yeah, you can have a party. That's OK, but please be quiet. Don't be too loud. The neighbors live very close to my house.

托德：可以，你們可以舉辦派對。那沒問題，不過盡量安靜一些。不要太吵。鄰居離得很近。

Katie: Alright, that sounds good. Thanks. And I have one more question. Can I use the washing machine?

凱蒂：好，聽起來不錯。謝謝你。我還有一個問題。我能用洗衣機嗎?

Todd: Yeah, of course. You can use anything. You use the washing machine. You can use the Internet. You can use the TV. You can use anything you like.

托德：當然可以了。你什么都能用。你可以用洗衣機，可以用網，可以看電視。你想用什么就用什么。

Katie: Wow, excellent. That sounds great. Thank you so much.

凱蒂：哇哦，太好了。聽上去太棒了。太謝謝你了。

Todd: Yeah, I will write down directions for my house, and I will send you a map, and you can check it out and get all the information, and just I will leave the key for you with my neighbor.

托德：我會把我家的地址寫給你，然后把地圖發(fā)給你，你查收后就可以看到所有信息了，我會把鑰匙放在鄰居那里。

Katie: Excellent. Thank you very much!

凱蒂：太棒了。真是太謝謝你了!

Todd: Sure, no problem.
