 家电商场在进行电器促销，看看雪莉这回又看上了什么了。 

 

Sales person: May I be of any assistance?

 

Shirley: I want to have a look at the microwave ovens.

 

Sales person: You can have a broad choice here. Are you interested in a particular brand?

 

Shirley: Not really. What are these toys over there?

 

Sales person: Ma'am, these are complimentary¹ with each purchase. How about that one below the toys? This is the best seller. They are of the latest model that can be found in town.

 

Shirley: I don't like its color. A bit too bright. Do you have a grey one？

 

Sales person: Yes, we do. What a great taste you have! But we only have one left in stock.

 

Shirley: Really? How so?

 

Sales person: You know a good product will always sell! Would you mind waiting for a while, we'll get it right away.

 

Shirley: Okay.

 

(The salesperson² brings a beautiful grey microwave oven.)

 

Sales person: Here it is. It's very elegant, I think you will like it.

 

Shirley: How about its quality?

 

Sales person: Its durability³ will be a big surprise to you.

 

Shirley: What about the price?

 

Sales person: 500 yuan. And if you buy it today, there will be a 15% discount for you.
