美語情景對話 第1232期:Is it better to rent or own a home? 租房好還是買房好?

Shon: Hello everybody, and this is me Shon from Uzbekistan.

肖恩:大家好,我是肖恩,來自烏茲別克斯坦。

Miki: And I'm Miki from Nigeria.

米基:我是米基,來自尼日利亞。

Shon: Nice to meet you.

肖恩:很高興見到你。

Miki: Now we're talking about renting a home. Is it better for you to rent or to own? So Shon what do you think?

米基:現在我們要來談談租房。你認爲租房好還是買房好?肖恩,你怎麼看?

Shon: Well it depends on to be honest but for me let's say if we say about the car, I guess it's better to own yourself.

肖恩:說實話,這要視情況而定,對我來說,如果我們談的是車,那我認爲自己買車比較好。

Miki: Well that's nice.

米基:不錯。

Shon: When it comes to the house or if you're living abroad it's better always to rent instead of having because you're living abroad right, you won't live there for good. But when it comes to the small, small things I prefer to own myself because it's your own, you can do whatever you want to do with it.

肖恩:至於房子,如果生活在國外,那租房比買房好,因爲你現在在國外生活,可是你不可能永遠生活在那裏。而我個人喜歡買房,因爲那是你自己的房子,你可以想幹什麼就幹什麼。

Miki: All right, I see. I think renting in some way is more ecological if you look at it from the other aspect of the thing because if you rent something you know you will use it for some time and hand it over because more times if you own it's, how do I put it, it's more or less not ecological because you always want to keep that thing and get a new one and add to it so you keep trying. But if you rent you give it away again and you give others a chance to use it.

米基:好,我明白了。我認爲從某種程度上來說,換個角度來看,租房更有利於生態保護,因爲如果你租房,你知道你只是在這間房子裏住一段時間,房子以後還會有別的人去住,而如果是自己的房子,我要怎麼解釋,我認爲不太利於生態環保,因爲你會一直住在那裏,而且你還會買新房子,增加你的房產。但是如果是租房,你可以把房子交出去,讓其他人有機會住這個房子。

Shon: OK, now I see. Well maybe we should start doing the reverse then?

肖恩:好,我明白了。也許我們應該採取相反的做法。

Miki: To start renting cars it is easy because you can get a good bargain from your car company and after using it you can hand it over and get a new car so you can get to use any cars you want to use at any particular time, any day, anywhere in any place.

米基:可以開始租車,那很簡單,因爲你可以從汽車公司那裏得到不錯的折扣,在用完車以後交回去,然後再租輛新車,你可以隨時隨地使用你想開的車。

Shon: Well that's cool.

肖恩:那真酷。
