听基础单词,练听力第31期:去一个"physical"店买东西

【今日基础词】 Physical

【Transcript】

A: I’ve heard some friends say when they get the article, it’s quite different from what they see on the website advertisement.

B: That happens. Without close quality examination, we may encounter fraud, and the e-shop may suddenly disappear.

A: What’s more, it’s not always so safe for us to pay online as hackers² might steal the user name and password.

B: It’s said that some measures have been taken to deal with this problem. Paying online is much safer than before, but I still have the feeling that it’s not safe enough.

A: I can’t agree more. That’s why I only do street shopping.

B: Me too. Sometimes I surf online shops to check some related information, and then go to a physical store to do the actual shopping.

A: That’s a good idea.

【注】encounter v. 遇到，相遇；fraud n. 欺骗，骗子；hacker¹ n. 电脑黑客
Translation】

A：我听朋友说，网上买到的东西和网站广告上看到的很不一样。

B：确实有这种事，不好好检查质量，可能会买到假货，网店也没准儿突然消失。

A：而且网上付费有时也不安全，黑客可能会偷走用户名和密码。

B：听说已经采取措施解决这个问题了。现在网上付费比以前安全多了，但我还是觉得不够安全。

A：你说得太对了，所以我只在实体店买东西。

B：我也是。有时候我会逛逛网店，查一下产品信息，然后到实体店里去买。

A：这法儿不错
