DEREK: You won't believe what just happened.
KELLY: What?
DEREK: I went down to change some money, right?
KELLY: Yes. We need some. How much did you change?
DEREK: I wanted to change around 5000 dollars. And you know the exchange rate.
KELLY: Yes, it's about 35 pesos for every Taiwan dollar, right?
DEREK: Not today.
KELLY: What do you mean?
DEREK: I went into the bank with my money, and I looked at the exchange board.At first I couldn't believe it. I thought I was reading the board wrong or something.
KELLY: Why?
DEREK: Because the board said 60 pesos for every Taiwan dollar.
KELLY: Sixty? That's too much. How can that be?
DEREK: I thought it was wrong too. It didn't make sense.
KELLY: Just two days ago it was 35. How can it be 60?
DEREK: So, I went up to the teller1 and started to exchange the money. And it's true.They really gave me sixty pesos for the dollar.
KELLY: That's amazing! Really? How could it change so much in two days?
DEREK: I tried to ask the bank teller why it changed,but she didn't speak English well enough.So I decided2 to go to the magazine shop. The one around the corner.And I bought an American newspaper.
KELLY: What happened?
DEREK: It seems that yesterday the Mexican government declaredit wouldn't pay back the loans3 it got from the World Bank.The government declared a default4 on the loans.
KELLY: That's serious.
DEREK: I know. The economy5 here is having serious problems.But because the government declared a default, the currency6 value went way down.
KELLY: So now Mexican pesos are worth about half as much.
DEREK: Yes, it's an amazing drop.
KELLY: Wow. I feel sorry for the Mexicans. But it's good for us.
DEREK: Yes, it's very good. We suddenly have twice as much money to spend here.Our hotel is now half as expensive as when we got here! Isn't that strange?
KELLY: Yes, and you know what?
DEREK: What?
KELLY: I don't really like this hotel that much.So tonight, now that we are so rich,tonight why don't we stay in the most expensive hotel in town?
DEREK: Why not? We should do it. Because now we can afford it.
戴瑞克：你不會相信剛剛發(fā)生的事。
凱莉：什么事？
戴瑞克：我去樓下?lián)Q錢，對不對？
凱莉：對啊，我們需要一些，你換了多少？
戴瑞克：我想要換五千元左右，而且你很清楚匯率。
凱莉：是啊，大概是三十五披索等于一塊臺幣，對不對？
戴瑞克：今天不是。
凱莉：什么意思？
戴瑞克：我?guī)Я隋X去銀行，然后看著匯率表。一開始，我真不敢相信，我想我讀錯了或什么的。
凱莉：為什么？
戴瑞克：因為匯率表上說六十披索等于一塊臺幣。
凱莉：六十？太多了吧，怎么會這樣呢？
戴瑞克：我也以為錯了，這樣不太合理。
凱莉：就在兩天前是三十五，怎么變成六十了呢？
戴瑞克：于是我走向出納員要求兌換錢，原來是真的。他們真的讓我用一塊臺幣換六十披索。
凱莉：太神奇了！真的嗎？兩天內(nèi)怎么會改變這么多呢？
戴瑞克：我試著問銀行出納員為何匯率改了，但是她的英文說得不太好。所以我決定去雜志店，街角那家，買了一份美國報紙。
凱莉：發(fā)生什么事了？
戴瑞克：好象昨天墨西哥政府宣告不償還向世界銀行借的貸款，他們宣稱不履行債務(wù)。
凱莉：那很嚴(yán)重喔！
戴瑞克：我知道，這兒的經(jīng)濟有很嚴(yán)重的問題，但是因為政府宣稱不履行債務(wù)，幣值頓時跌落。
凱莉：所在現(xiàn)在墨西哥披索只值原來的一半。
戴瑞克：是啊，真驚人的下跌。
凱莉：哇，我真是替墨西哥人感到遺憾，但是這種情況對我們是有利的。
戴瑞克：是啊，蠻好的，我們突然有二倍的錢來花。旅館費現(xiàn)在只有剛到時的一半貴，那不是很怪嗎？
凱莉：嗯，你知道嗎？
戴瑞克：什么？
凱莉：我不太喜歡這間旅館，所以今晚，既然我們有錢了，為什么不去住鎮(zhèn)上最貴的旅館？
戴瑞克：有何不可呢？我們應(yīng)該的，因為現(xiàn)在我們可以付得起了。
