购物英语口语-描述购物地点

（单词翻译）

CAROLYN: Albert and I need a lot of things to furnish our house.But I don't know where the best place to shop is. Can you give me some advice?
STEPHANIE: Sure, Carolyn. I'm happy to help you.What kinds of things do you need right now?
CAROLYN: Well, we have most of the furniture already.We mostly need kitchen utensils¹, bathroom accessories,cleaning and laundry accessories--things like that.And Albert wants to set up a little office in the small bedroom.
STEPHANIE: Well, as for Albert, he should go to an office supply store.There's a very good one called Office Depot². They have everything he will need. And their prices are good too. It's very convenient.
CAROLYN: Can I write that down?
STEPHANIE: Sure, it's spelled "Office" and then D - E - P - O - T.It's in the Yellow Pages.
CAROLYN: Thanks.
STEPHANIE: And as for the kitchen things, do you want very high quality?
CAROLYN: What do you mean?
STEPHANIE: I mean, do you want the best quality, or do you want good prices?
CAROLYN: Probably good prices. You know we will only be in America for about a year.
STEPHANIE: Then I suggest you go to K-Mart or Wal-Mart.
CAROLYN: What are those stores?
STEPHANIE: They are very large, discount department stores.That means their prices are very good.And you can find everything you need for the kitchen or bathroom.

CAROLYN: Even silverware?
STEPHANIE: Yes, everything.They don't have the most expensive brands, but their quality is usually decent.The main thing is, they have good prices, and they are very convenient.
CAROLYN: I have a friend that said something about a place called Price Club.Do you know about that?
STEPHANIE: I have never shopped there,but I think Price Club is a kind of membership store.
CAROLYN: What does that mean?
STEPHANIE: That means you have to pay a membership fee to shop there.I have heard they have very good prices on electronics.
CAROLYN: Electronics?
STEPHANIE: Yes. Like stereos and televisions. CAROLYN: How much is the membership fee?
STEPHANIE: I'm not sure.But if you are only going to stay a year, I don't think Price Club is good to join.They have great deals occasionally.They are very good for people who like to buy new things all the time.
CAROLYN: I see. Thanks for these tips. We really need to buy a lot of little things.
STEPHANIE: I know how it is. Moving is very troublesome. 凯洛琳：艾博特和我需要很多东西装潢家里。
我不知道去什么地方买好，你可以给我一些建议吗？
史蒂芬妮：当然可以，我很乐意帮忙。你目前需要什么东西？
凯洛琳：大部分的家具我们都有了。我们主要需要厨房用具，浴室用的，清洁和洗衣之类的用品。而且艾博特想在小的卧室里弄一个小办公室。
史蒂芬妮：对艾博特来说，他应该去办公室用品店。有一家不错的店叫"帝伯办公用品"，在那儿有他需要的每样东西。而且价格也公道，很方便的。
凯洛琳：我可以写下来吗？
史蒂芬妮：当然，拼成 OFFICE，然后 D-E-P-O-T 。在电话簿里有。
凯洛琳：谢谢。
史蒂芬妮：至于厨具，你要很高级的吗？
凯洛琳：什么意思？
史蒂芬妮：我是指你要很高级的还是便宜的？
凯洛琳：便宜的好了，我们大概只在美国待一年。
史蒂芬妮：那我建议你去凯马特，或沃尔玛。
凯洛琳：那些是什么店？
史蒂芬妮：是很大又有折扣的百货商店，价格很便宜。你可以找到你需要的每样厨房和浴室用品。
凯洛琳：连银器都有吗？
史蒂芬妮：是的，每样都有。虽然不是最贵的品牌，但是材质通常都很好。最主要的是价格便宜，而且购买方便。
凯洛琳：我有个朋友提到一个地方叫"优待价俱乐部"。你知道那里吗？
史蒂芬妮：我没去那逛过，不过我想那是会员俱乐部。
凯洛琳：怎么说呢？
史蒂芬妮：你必须缴交会费才能在那儿消费。我听说他们的电器用品很便宜。
凯洛琳：电器用品？
史蒂芬妮：是的，像是音响和电视。
凯洛琳：会费是多少呢？
史蒂芬妮：我不确定。不过如果你只待一年，加入俱乐部并不划算。有时他们会有很棒的促销。对那些总是想买新产品的人而言是划算的。
凯洛琳：我懂了，谢谢你的建议。我们真的需要买很多琐碎的东西。
史蒂芬妮：我了解，搬家是很麻烦的。
