本杰明接到雪莉的電話，匆匆趕來家電商場，最終雪莉買了那款她鐘情的微波爐了嗎？
Benjamin: A microwave oven?
Shirley: Yes, it's really two-pence colored.
Benjamin: Okay, honey, we already have two. There is no more space for a third one!
Shirley: But it's so elegant.
Benjamin: Honey, maybe something else, just no more microwave oven, okay?
Shirley: All right. Then what about a MD player? For May to learn English with.
Benjamin: Better.
Shirley: Do you have any MD players?
Sales person: Yes, various. Here are the samples. What about this one?
Shirley: What are its features?
Sales person: Well, it has a lithium battery which lasts for 20 hours. With MP3 mode, you can download about 9 hours of music or English audio texts. It's especially popular with students for their English study!
Shirley: What else?
Sales person: Maybe you should just have it operated then you would know how well it works.
Shirley: Oh,“My heart will go on”, I love the song.
Benjamin: Nothing can s her from buying it now, I suppose.
Sales person: Just think about the advantage you are going to get.
本杰明：（你要買）一個微波爐？
雪莉：是的，那款真的是物美價廉。
本杰明：親愛的，我們已經有兩個了，實在沒有地方放第三個了！
雪莉：但是這款真的很棒。
本杰明：親愛的，要不我們買點別的，只是別買微波爐了，好嗎？
雪莉：好吧，要不我們買個MD播放機讓阿美用來學英語。
本杰明：（買這個比買微波爐）好多了。
雪莉：請問你們有MD播放機嗎？
售貨員：是的，有很多款式。這里有樣品。這款怎么樣？
雪莉：它有什么特點？
銷售員：它有能持續(xù)20小時的鋰電池。用MP3模式，可以下載9個小時的音樂或英語聽力材料，現(xiàn)在特別流行于學生的英語學習。
雪莉：還有其他的（優(yōu)點）嗎？
銷售員：你可以現(xiàn)在就操作一些，然后你就知道它的性能有多好了！
雪莉：哦，《我心永恒》，我喜歡這首歌。
本杰明：我想，現(xiàn)在沒有什么能阻止她買這個了。
售貨員：想想你買它所得到的好處吧！
