商务英语播客 第113课:租车

      Business travelers can't always get where they need to go by catching a plane or taking a taxi. Sometimes we need our own means of transport, and that usually means renting a car. So, in this ESL podcast we'll cover language you can use when choosing a car, discussing features and clarifying insurance options.
      出差在外的商务人员在很多时候并不是搭航班或打车就能随心所欲地前往某地。有时候还需要亲自驾车。这就涉及到租车。那么在今天的节目中我们就来学习租车时怎样谈论车辆的选择、性能以及保险事宜。

      In the last episode (BEP – Checking our of a Hotel), we met Honesto Salvador and Alan Chan, who have just finished attending a training program sponsored by their company in Boston. They've just arrived now at Logan Airport, where they need to rent a car for their upcoming trip to New Haven.
      在上一期的节目“宾馆退房”中，我们认识了 Honesto Salvador和Alan Chan。他们两个刚刚完成了公司在波士顿举行的培训活动。现在两个人刚刚抵达罗根机场，正需要租一辆车前往纽黑文市。

      As you listen, pay attention to the language they use to ask about vehicle types, standard features, extras and insurance options.
      大家在听的时候要注意他们怎样运用语言来谈论车型、标准性能、配件以及保险事宜。
