    課文】
    Can Mr. Frith buy the television on instalments? How does it work?
    弗里斯先生可以用分期付款方式購買電視機嗎?如何操作呢?
    MR.FRITH:I like this television very much. How much does it cost?
    ASSISTANT:It's the most expensive model in the shop. It costs five hundred pounds.
    MRS. FRITH:That's too expensive for us. We can't afford all that money.
    ASSISTANT:This model's less expensive than that one. It's only three hundred pounds. But, of course, it's not as good as the expensive one.
    MR. FRITH: I don't like the model. The other model's more expensive, but it's worth the money.
    MR. FRITH: Can we buy it on instalments?
    ASSISTANT:Of course. You can pay a deposit1 of thirty pounds, and then fourteen pounds a month for three years.
    MR. FRITH:Do you like it, dear?
    MRS. FRITH:I certainly do, but I don't like the price. You always want the best, but we can't afford it. Sometimes you think you're a millionaire2!
    MR.FRITH:Millionaires don't buy things on instalments!
    課文翻譯】
    弗里斯先生:我非常喜歡這臺電視機。請問它多少錢?
    店 員:這是店里貴的型號。它的售價是500英鎊。
    弗里斯夫人:這對我們來說是太貴了。我們花不起那么多錢。
    店 員:這種型號的比那種要便宜些。它只要300英鎊。但是,它當然沒有價錢高的那種好。
    弗里斯先生:我不喜歡這種型號。那一種型號價格是貴一些,但它值這么多錢。
    弗里斯先生:我們可以用分期付款的方式購買嗎?
    店 員:當然可以。您可以先付30英鎊定金,然后每月14鎊,3年付清。
    弗里斯先生:你喜歡嗎,親愛的?
    弗里斯夫人:我當然喜歡, 但是我不喜歡這個價錢。你總是要買好的,可我們買不起。有時候你認為自己是個百萬富翁!
    弗里斯先生:百萬富翁是不會分期付款買東西的!

    millionaire n. 百萬富翁
    知識點講解】
    一. 單詞拓展:
    1. model 課文中,是模型的意思。如飛機模型(model areoplane),輪船模型(model ship)。那汽車模型應該怎么說呢?此外,model 除了模型的意思外,還可以表示模特。如走T臺的模特 fashion model,平面模特 still model。那車模又應該怎么說?
    2 millionaire 百萬富翁 millionaire是個合成詞,有million(百萬)+aire 組成。那億萬富翁怎么說呢?
    現(xiàn)在我們復習一下計數(shù)單位,在英語里,每三位數(shù)為一個計數(shù)單位。我們從小到大復習一遍,thousand (千),million(百萬), billion(十億),trillion (萬億)。給大家一個英語表達數(shù)字的小技巧:表達數(shù)字前,拿起筆,從個位數(shù)向高位數(shù)字作記號,每三位數(shù)字為一個單位。
    如 123,456,789,123 (one hundred twenty three billion,four hundred fifty-six million, seven hundred eighty-nine thousand,one hundred twenty- three.)
    給同學們一個數(shù)字:44455899707,想想用英語應該怎么說呢?
    3. A be as+adj+as B A跟B一樣……
    這是一個比較中的等價句型:A跟B一樣……例句:她跟我一樣重。She is as heavy as me. 那我跟她一樣重,應該怎么說?
    如果想表達A不如B時,我們只需要在這個結構中的be動詞后面加上not。如她不如我重。She is not as heavy as me.
    那要是“我沒有她重”。又應該怎么說?
    二 【口語學習】購物英語
    問價:How much does it cost?(課文)
    How much is it?
    What's the price?/Could you tell me its price?
    報價:It costs+價格 / It is +價格
    還價:It is too expensive/dear
    The price is a bit high.
    I'm afraid I cannot afford it. 恐怕買不起。afford 買得起,付得起錢
    Would you lowit down? 能不能低一點?
    打折:give sb +20%discount 打某人八折 (折扣額=1-百分數(shù))
    如:打七折,怎樣?What about 30% discount? 小思考:給你打九五折。應該怎么說?
    付款:1)現(xiàn)金付款 pay in cash 2) 刷卡 pay in credit3
    3)分期付款 buy sth on instalment 4)支付定金 pay/put down a deposit
