Discuss the mode of payment 協(xié)商付款方式
    A: Mr. Wang, we haven't discussed the mode of payment.
    B: You know, Mr. Forster, this is a really large purchase . I'm afraid we can't pay off at one time. We have to pay by insurance.
    A: Do you mean you prefer a deferred payment?
    B: Yes, Mr. Forster.
    A: When do you start the payment then?
    B: We'll start our payment in half a year and the total amount will be paid off within 2 years by three installments .
    A: We can accept that, but you have to pay the interest.
    B: All right.
    A: Shall we sign the agreement now?
    B: OK, let's sign it.
    重點(diǎn)講解:
    1. Purchase 購買
    2. Deferred 延期的,緩召的
    3. Installment 就職,裝設(shè),分期付款
    4. Pay off 還清(債務(wù)等)付清 例如:Next he undertook to pay off the debts. 然后,他同意負(fù)責(zé)償還債務(wù)。
    5. To pay by installment 分期付款 例如:He is paying for his car by monthly installment. 他以按月分期付款的方式支付他的購車款。
    漢語譯文:
    A: 王先生,我們還沒商討過付款的方式呢。
    B: 福斯特先生,您知道這確實(shí)是一大筆購貨,恐怕我們無法一次性將款項(xiàng)付清,只能分期付款。
    A: 您是說希望采取延期付款方式?
    B: 是的,福斯特先生。
    A: 那么你們什么時候開始付款呢?
    B: 我們半年后開始付款,所有的款在兩年內(nèi)分三次付清。
    A: 我們可以接受這一付款方式。
    B: 那好吧。
    A: 我們現(xiàn)在就簽署合約好嗎?
    B: 好的,我們簽吧。
