社交生活篇：催房租（1）（在线收听）

A: Hi, this is Nicole.

B: Nicole, it's Richard. You know why I'm calling.

A: Yes, I know. It's the rent, isn't it?

B: Yes, just like last month, your rent is overdue.

A: What about my grace period?

B: Are you getting Alzheimer's? There is no grace period in the rental agreement.

A: Sometimes my memory isn't so good. Maybe I do have Alzheimer's.

B: I'm looking forward to receiving your check in the very near future.

A: Is Monday okay? I get paid tomorrow.

B: Remember that the check amount must include the $50 late fee.

A: Okay, if the rental agreement actually has a late fee, I'll pay the $50.

B: Look at your agreement. There's a big red circle around the late fee.

A: As soon as I find my rental agreement, I'll read it again.

B: I'm not giving you any more chances. Be late again, and you'll be evicted.

嗨，我是妮可。

妮可，我是理查德。你知道我为什么打电话。

是的，我知道。这是房租，不是吗？

是的，就像上个月一样，你的房租过期了。

我的宽限期呢？

你得了老年痴呆症吗？租赁协议中没有宽限期。

有时候我的记忆力不太好。也许我真的得了老年痴呆症。

我期待着在不久的将来收到你的支票。

星期一可以吗？我明天领工资。

记住支票金额必须包括50美元的滞纳金。

好吧，如果租赁协议真的有滞纳金，我就付50美元。

看看你的协议。滞纳金周围有一个红色的大圆圈。

我一找到租赁协议，就会再看一遍。

我不会再给你机会了。如果再迟到，你就会被驱逐。
