paying the bills信用卡帳單
    Dialog
    英語(yǔ)情景對(duì)話
    Grace: Did you already pay the bills for this month?
    女:這個(gè)月的帳單你付了嗎
    Will: No, I haven't gotten around to it yet. Why?
    男:沒(méi)有,還沒(méi)顧得過(guò)來(lái)呢,怎么了
    Grace: We got a late notice from the credit card company. The notice says that they haven't received the payment yet and it's past the due date. We are being charged a late fee plus a finance charge of 15%.
    女:信用卡公司給咱們寄來(lái)一個(gè)過(guò)期付款的通知單了,說(shuō)他們還沒(méi)有收到我們的付款,而付款期已經(jīng)過(guò)了。他們將向我們收取遲付手續(xù)費(fèi)用及15%的罰息。
    Will: Let me see that. That can't be right. I paid the minimum payment on the last bill. I better call and talk to customer service tomorrow. I'm sure it's a mix-up.
    男:我看看。不對(duì)呀,上次付帳的時(shí)候我付了信用卡最低還款額度了。明天我打個(gè)電話問(wèn)問(wèn)他們的客服部門(mén),我想他們是搞錯(cuò)了。
    Grace: I really hope so. The last time we were late with the payment, I tried calling them and telling them that the check was in the mail, but they didn't buy it.
    女:我希望是如此。上次我們遲付的時(shí)候,我試著打電話給他們告訴付款已經(jīng)在路上了,但他們不買(mǎi)帳。
    Will: That's different. Don’t worry about it. I'm sure I'll get it straightened out. Worse comes to worst, we're only a month late. They won't send the collection agency after us.
    男:上回的情況不同。不用擔(dān)心,我想我能搞定。最壞的情況,我們也只晚了一個(gè)月。他們倒不至于找催款公司來(lái)壓我們。
    Grace: I know I can count on you to take care of it. I just don't want this late payment to affect our credit rating.
    女:我想我就靠你擺平此事了。希望這次遲付不會(huì)影響到我們的信用評(píng)級(jí)。
    Will: Leave it to me. I'll take care of it on Monday. It's as good as done.
    男:交給我吧。周一我搞定它,你就放心吧。
