A: your mp3 looks so cool. Where did you get it?
W: I bought it online.
A: really? Do you often shop online?
W: yes. I buy most of my daily necessities online.
A: I've never tried E-shopping. Is it better than shopping at an actual store?
W: yes, much better. You can log in a website, browse through many items and categories comfortably at home, order the goods, pay by credit or debit
card, and the goods will be delivered to your home.
A: sounds good, and I don't have to queue up at the cashier.
W: and you can still go "window shopping" just like in a real shopping mall.
A: well, are there any other advantages?
W: yes, most of the shops are closed at 22:00 or even earlier,but the internet operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and can be accessed anywhere.
A: are there many choices of online shopping?
W: sure. You can buy almost anything you can think of.
W: perhaps I should have a try.
你的MP3真酷.在哪買(mǎi)的?
在網(wǎng)上買(mǎi)的.
是嗎?大多數(shù)日用品我都在網(wǎng)上買(mǎi)的.
我從來(lái)沒(méi)在網(wǎng)上買(mǎi)過(guò)東西.比在實(shí)體店購(gòu)物更好嗎?
沒(méi)錯(cuò),好多了.你可以登陸一個(gè)購(gòu)物網(wǎng)站,在家里舒舒服服地瀏覽各類(lèi)商品,下訂單,用信用卡或貸記卡付款,然后你訂的貨就可以送到家里了.
聽(tīng)起來(lái)不錯(cuò),不用在收銀臺(tái)排隊(duì)了.
而且和逛街一樣,也可以只看不買(mǎi).
恩,還有其他優(yōu)點(diǎn)嗎?
有,商店一般10點(diǎn)或10點(diǎn)以前就關(guān)門(mén)了,網(wǎng)點(diǎn)卻可以每天隨時(shí)開(kāi)放,只要能上網(wǎng)就行了.
網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物選擇多嗎?
當(dāng)然.想得到的都能買(mǎi)到.
也許我該試一試.
