Bob 為了他的課堂期末報告到處在找尋一本原文書,然而台灣所有實體書店和網路書店都沒在賣這本,於是他求助於日日遊走於外國網站的網購大師 Sofia!

Bob: Sofia, do you know where I can possibly buy this book? It’s for my final report.
Bob:Sofia,你知道我在那裡可能買得到這本書嗎?是我期末報告需要的。

Sofia: You’ve come to the right person. Here, let me help you explore the magical world of online shopping. (opening her browser) There’s an English website called Nerdy Berdy, where you can find whatever book you are looking for.

Sofia:你問對人了。來,讓我帶你探索神奇的網購世界。(打開她的瀏覽器) 有個英文網站叫做書宅柏蒂,在那裡什麼書都找得到。

Bob: How come I’ve never heard of it?

Bob:我怎麼都沒聽過?

Sofia: I dunno. Maybe because you prefer watching TV to reading? What’s the title of the book again?

Sofia:哪知,或許是因為你比較喜歡看電視?你說書名是什麼?

Bob: Tauroética. It’s actually a Spanish book, which is probably why it is so hard to find in Taiwan.

Bob:《鬥牛倫理》。它其實是一本西班牙的書,或許這就是為什麼在台灣那麼難買。

Sofia: Yeah maybe. Okay, here’s the
Nerdy Berdy homepage. Let’s punch the title into the search.
Sofia:嗯… 有可能。好了,我們現在在書宅柏蒂的首頁。首先,我們把書名輸入進去搜尋。

Bob: Wow, there’s so many to choose from. Let me see… there are two
versions of it, one published in 2010 and the other published just last year. How much is the latest edition?
Bob:哇,有好多種選擇。我看看,有兩種版本——一版是 2010 年出版的,另一版是去年出的!最新版的價格多少?

Sofia: The price here is 14 euros. That’s around 465 NTD.
Sofia:價格列在這裡。14 歐,大約台幣 465。

Bob: That’s so much cheaper than I expected! Could you add it to the cart for me?
Bob:比我想得要便宜多了!你可以幫我加入購物車嗎?

太好啦,Bob 找到他要的書了!先來複習單字吧!
