B: Great, my name's Tom. Some friends of ours rented Granary Cottage from you last year and they thought it was great. So my wife and I are hoping to come in may for a week.
B:太好了,我叫湯姆。去年我們幾個(gè)朋友從你那里租了糧倉小屋,他們覺得那間小屋很棒。所以我和我妻子希望在5月過來住一周。

A:你打算什么時(shí)候來?
B: the week beginning the 14th if possible.
B:如果可能的話,從14日開始的那一周。
A: I'll just check. I'm sorry Tom, it's already booked that week, it's free the week beginning the 28th though for seven nights. In fact that's the only time you could have it in may.
A:我去查一下。對不起湯姆,那一周已經(jīng)訂滿了,不過從28日開始的那一周可以住七晚。事實(shí)上,那是你在5月唯一可以住的時(shí)間。
B: Oh, well, we could manage that I think. We just need to change a couple of things. How much would it cost?
B:我想我們可以做到,只需要重新規(guī)劃幾件事。請問要花多少錢?
A: That's the beginning of high season, so it would be £550 for the week.
A:那是旺季的開始,所以一周的費(fèi)用是550英鎊。
B: Ah... that's a bit more than we wanted to pay, I'm afraid. We've budgeted up to £500 for accommodation.
B:啊……恐怕比我們想付的要多一點(diǎn)。我們預(yù)算的住宿費(fèi)是500英鎊。

A:不過我們剛剛把另一棟建筑也改建成了小屋,叫細(xì)葉芹小屋。

B:對不起,是什么來著?
A: Chervil. C-H-E-R-V for Victor-I-L.
A:Chervil。C-H-E-R-Victor的V-I-L。
B: Oh, that's a herb, isn't it?
B:哦,那是一種草本植物,不是嗎?
A: That's right. It grows fairly wild around here, you could have that for the week you want for £480.
A:沒錯(cuò)。它在這里長得相當(dāng)野,你可以花 480 英鎊租一周。
B: Okay, so could you tell me something about it, please?
B:好的,你能告訴我一些關(guān)于它的事情嗎?
A: Of course. The building was built as a garage, it's a little smaller than Granary Cottage.
A:當(dāng)然。這棟建筑是作為車庫建造的,比糧倉小屋小一點(diǎn)。

A:沒錯(cuò),有一間雙人臥室。
B: Does it have a garden?
B:有花園嗎?
A: Yes, you get to it from the living room through French doors, and we provide two deck chairs. We hope to build a patio in the near future, but I wouldn't like to guarantee it'll be finished by may.
A:有,從客廳穿過法式門即可到達(dá),我們提供兩張?zhí)梢?。我們希望在不久的將來建造一個(gè)露臺,但我不敢保證它會在5月前完工。
B: Okay.
B:好的。
A: The front door opens onto the old farmyard, and parking isn't a problem, there's plenty of room at the front for that. There are some trees and potted plants there.
