 May: This skirt is overpriced.

 

Salesclerk: We never overcharge. It is a fair price to pay.

 

May: Is it on sale?

 

Salesclerk: In this season? No. But if you come two months later, maybe it will be on sale.

 

May: Will it still be here then?

 

Salesclerk: Maybe. I can't guarantee.

 

Gucci: Could you give us a discount anyway?

 

Salesclerk: Sorry, we can't. This is the lowest price.

 

Gucci: Come on! You are ripping¹ us off.

 

May：Give us a better price, and we're definitely² gonna take this one.

 

Salesclerk: Sorry, lady. We can't do that.

 

May: What do I do, Gucci? I can't afford a skirt at that price.

 

Gucci: I think it is worth, May.

 

May: OK, I will take it then.

阿美：这条裙子太贵了。

 

售货员：我们从来不乱出价。这是公道价钱。

 

阿美：这条裙子有打折吗？

 

售货员：在这个季节？没有。但您如果两个月以后来的话，也许会打折。

 

阿美：到那时它还会在吗？

 

售货员：也许吧。我不能保证。

 

古奇：那能不能给我们一点折扣 啊？

 

售货员：对不起，我们不能。这已经是最低价了。

 

古奇：哎呀，你这是在骗我们。

 

阿美：给我们一个合理的价格，我们一定会把它买下来。

 

售货员：对不起，小姐。我们不能那么做。

 

阿美：我该怎么办啊，古奇？我可付不起那个价钱。

 

古奇：我觉得值耶，阿美。

 

阿美：好吧，那我就买下来吧。
