地道美语听力练习:租度假屋

George: I'm kind of nervous staying in a vacation rental for the first time.
乔治：第一次住在出租的度假公寓里，感觉好紧张。

Marnie: Don't worry. Before I booked this unit, I checked it out thoroughly. It's pet-friendly and kid-friendly, and it sleeps six, so it'll be perfect for the whole family.
玛尔妮：别担心。在订这套房之前，我全方位考察过。在这里动物和孩子都是受欢迎的，并且能住6个人，对全家来说很完美。

George: But there won't be the same amenities or services as a hotel.
乔治：但这里没有和酒店一样的设施和服务。

Marnie: We won't need any of those. Just think, we'll have the run of the place and there are no adjoining units. The proximity to town is great and I got a last-minute price that's even lower than their low season rate.
玛尔妮：我们不需要那些。试想一下，我们能亲自管理这个地方，不会有邻居来打扰。更棒的是这里离城里很近，而且我还拿到了比淡季时更低的价格。

George: Everything sounds good, but…
乔治：听起来很好，但是...

Marnie: It'll be our home away from home. Units this close to the beach are scarce, and this one is really affordable.
玛尔妮：这里将成为我们的家外之家。离海滩如此近的公寓稀缺，更何况价格真的很实惠。

George: A little too affordable, if you ask me. You said that it's just $60 a night?
乔治：要我说，有点太过实惠了。听你说这里只要60美元一晚。

Marnie: That's right.
玛尔妮：没错。

George: Are there any taxes or cleaning fees?
乔治：还需要交税或清洁费用吗？

Marnie: I didn't ask about that.
玛尔妮：我没问过。

George: Do they require a refundable deposit?
乔治：他们有要求我们先付押金，到时退还吗？

Marnie: I didn't check that either.
玛尔妮：这我也没问过。

George: Then maybe it's too good to be true. Before we get too excited, let's go read the fine print.
乔治：那么这一切都显得太好，而不像是真的。别高兴得太早，先看看附加条款再说吧。
