昨天晚上我的冰箱徹底壞了。我想起着裏面的食品還沒解凍，儘快買臺新的。

我喜歡我那臺舊冰箱，用了二十年。我希望能買一臺一模一樣的。

Sales Clerk:Well, twenty years is a long time. There are a lot of new features. For example, this one has an icemaker and water and ice dispensers built into the door. It also has improved energy efficency.
二十年的時間可不短。現在的冰箱有很多新功能。比如這臺冰箱有一個製冰機，門上還有冰水分送器。而且它的能耗也大大降低了。

Customer:That's convenient, but I don't think I can afford it.
很方便，但是我買不起。

Sales Clerk:Well, if you take advantage of our rent-to own program, you can take this one home today. It's only $40 a month.如果您參與我們的“先租後買”活動，您今天就能帶着這臺冰箱回家了。每月只需付40美元。
