Mr Frith
I like this television very much. How much does it cost please?
Assistant
It's the most expensive model in the shop. It costs 500 pounds.
Mrs Frith
That's too expensive for us. We can't afford all that money.
Assistant
This model's less expensive than that one. It's only 300 pounds. But, of course, it's not as good as the expensive one.
Mr Frith
I don't like this model. The other model's more expensive, but it's worth the money.
Mr Frith
Can we buy it on instalments?
Assistant
Of course. You can pay a deposit of 30 pounds, and then 14 pounds a month for 3 years.
Mr Frith
Do you like it, dear?
Mrs Frith
I certainly do, but I don't like the price. You always want the best, but we can't afford it. Sometimes you think you're a millionaire!
Mr Frith
Millionaires don't buy things on instalments!

弗里斯先生
我非常喜欢这台电视机。请问它多少钱？
店员
这是店里最贵的型号。它的售价是500英镑。
弗里斯夫人
这对我们来说是太贵了。我们花不起那么多钱。
店员
这种型号比那种要便宜些。它只要300英镑。但是，它当然没有价钱高那种好。
弗里斯先生
我不喜欢这种型号。那种型号价格是贵一些，但它值得那么多钱。
弗里斯先生
我们可以用分期付款的方式购买吗？
店员
当然可以。您可以先付30英镑定金，然后每月14镑，三年付清。
弗里斯先生
你喜欢吗，亲爱的？
弗里斯夫人
我当然喜欢，但是我不喜欢这个价钱。你总是要买最好的，可我们买不起，有时候你认为自己是个百万富翁！
弗里斯先生
百万富翁是不会分期付款买东西的！
