旅游英語口語之免稅店的對話

　　carol： i never understand why these shops have so much liquor.

　　john： what do you mean? it's because it's much cheaper to buy liquor duty-free.

　　carol： but why? why don't people like to buy shirts duty-free? or shoes?

　　i just don't understand why it's always liquor.

　　john： well， it's because in most countries liquor has a higher tax on it.

　　carol： you mean liquor has a higher tax than other things?

　　john： yes， of course. didn't you know that?

　　carol： no， i didn't. how high is the tax?

　　john： well， it is different in different countries.

　　but it's because of the high tax that buying liquor duty-free is such a good deal.

　　carol： why would the government want to tax liquor so much?

　　john： liquor is considered a luxury item.

　　and also， it is considered as something that isn't very healthy.

　　so if people want to buy it， the government thinks it has the right to tax it.

　　carol： that's why a lot of people buy cigarettes here too， isn't it?

　　john： of course. cigarettes are also taxed very heavily.

　　carol： now i understand. but i don't smoke or drink.

　　so what am i supposed to buy in here?

　　john： you can buy some of these nice butterflies.

　　carol： no， i'm sorry.

　　i don't think it is nice to have butterflies mounted in boxes.

　　it is kind of disgusting.

　　john： what? you feel sorry for the butterflies?

　　carol： yes. i think they should just let them fly free，

　　and not try to sell them to foreigners. it is a kind of destruction of nature.

　　john： well， i agree with you.

　　i'd rather think that the butterflies are flying around in the mountains.

　　i just wonder if they really catch so many that it affects the butterfly population.

　　carol： who knows? hey， i like these jade bears here.

　　john： how much are they?

　　carol： this one is 2300 dollars.

　　maybe i should buy it for my mother. what do you think?

　　john： if you want. didn't you buy her a small vase already?

　　carol： yes， but she would like this a lot. she likes to collect little things like this.

　　john： alright. buy it then.

　　i won't buy anything. well， maybe i'll buy some cognac.

　　carol： maybe i could buy some cognac for my brother. he always drinks it.

　　john： let's go ask about it.

　　卡羅：我從來不了解為什么這些店有這么多種類的酒。

　　約翰：什么意思?因為買免稅的酒便宜很多。

　　卡羅：為什么?為何大家不喜歡買免稅的襯衫或鞋子呢?

　　我就是不懂為何總是酒類。

　　約翰：因為大部分的國家酒類含稅比較高。

　　卡羅：你是指酒比其它物品含稅更高嗎?

　　約翰：是啊，當然。你不知道嗎?

　　卡羅：我不知道。稅有多高呢?

　　約翰：每個國家都不一樣，

　　但是因為酒類含稅較高，所以買免稅酒很劃得來。

　　卡羅：為什么政府要扣酒類的稅如此重呢?

　　約翰：酒類被視為是奢侈品。

　　而且不是很健康的東西。

　　所以如果大家要采購的話，政府認為有權扣稅。

　　卡羅：這也是很多人在這買香煙的原因，對不對?

　　約翰：當然，香煙的稅也很重。

　　卡羅：現在我懂了，但是我又不抽煙或喝酒。

　　那我應該在這買什么好呢?

　　約翰：你可以買這些不錯的蝴蝶標本。

　　卡羅：不，很抱歉。

　　我不想要擁有盒裝的蝴蝶標本。

　　有點惡心耶。

　　約翰：不會吧?你替蝴蝶感到難過嗎?

　　卡羅：是的，我認為應該讓他們自由地飛翔，

　　而不是試著賣給外國人，這樣有點破壞自然。

　　約翰：對，我同意你的說法。

　　我寧愿這些蝴蝶在山林里飛舞著，

　　我只是想知道他們捕捉這么多是否會影響蝴蝶的數目。

　　卡羅：誰知道?嘿，我比較喜歡這些玉熊。

　　約翰：這些多少錢?

　　卡羅：這個是兩千三百美元。

　　也許我應該買給我媽，你覺得呢?

　　約翰：想買就買吧，你不是已經買給她一個小花瓶了?

　　卡羅：是啊，但是她會很喜歡這個，她喜歡收集像這樣的小東西。

　　約翰：好啊，那就買吧。

　　我什么也不買，也許我會買一些白蘭地酒。

　　卡羅：也許我可以買一些白蘭地酒給我哥，他老是喝那個。

　　約翰：我們去問問吧!
