ALEX: Well, first let's consider your , for example, is a system I highly recommend--the Power Macintosh comes with 64 megabytes of total memory.

SHERRY: Is that a lot? Sixty-four?

ALEX: Yes, it is. It should be enough for any student needs you might department are you in?

SHERRY: History.

ALEX: Well, so you will mostly be using word processing, for writing papers.I recommend the Corel Word Perfect program for word can talk about software later. Let's talk about your hardware have a special deal on right now.I should tell you about it, as it only goes until next Tuesday.

If you buy one of these fifteen-inch color monitors with a Power Macintosh G3,you can actually get 30 percent off the usual sale price.

ALEX: Yes, it's a Macintosh. It's Apple. Macintosh and Apple are the same thing.

SHERRY: I don't want Macintosh. I want PC.

ALEX: I'm sorry, but our university computer center only sells Macintosh equipment.

SHERRY: What? Are you serious?

ALEX: Yes.

SHERRY: But nobody uses Macintosh!

ALEX: That's not of the students and professors in the university here use find it is better for writing and word-processing,and that is what students mostly do. May I ask where you're from?

SHERRY: Yes, I'm from Taiwan.

ALEX: Well, I know that in most Asian countries Apple is not very here in America, especially in universities and publishing companies,Apple is very commonly used.

SHERRY: But I need a computer that can handle writing in Chinese.

ALEX: There are several Chinese writing programs you can use with ese is no problem for Apple. SHERRY: Hmm.

I think I should ask some of my friends for advice before I make a decision.I'm sorry.

ALEX: No, don't be sorry. It's reasonable to ask your believe me, most of the students here in the university--Asian students included--most of them use Apple.

SHERRY: Well, thanks for your advice. I will probably come back later.

ALEX: You're very welcome. Here is my card, if you need any help.

亚历克斯:我可以帮你吗?

雪莉:是的,这学期我需要买一台电脑,人家告诉我这里的电脑比较便宜。

亚历克斯:的确,你听到的是对的。在这买新电脑你可以拿到很不错的价格,我们给学生很大的折扣。

雪莉:我对电脑了解不多,但是我知道我要一台有很大内存的桌上电脑,而且我还要一台打印机。

亚历克斯:好的,我们先考虑你要的电脑。我极力推荐这儿的一套系统-麦金塔 G3。它的总内存为六十四百万位元。

雪莉:那很多吗?六十四?

亚历克斯:是的,对任何学生的需求应该是足够了。你是什么系的?

雪莉:历史系。

亚历克斯:好的,所以你会常用文字处理来写报告。我推荐 Corel Word Perfect 程式来做文字处理。我们待会再来谈软件,先谈硬件吧。

我们现在有特价, 我应该告诉你,因为只持续到星期二为止。如果你购买这套有麦金塔 G3 的 15 寸彩色主机, 事实上就可以有平常售价的七折。  雪莉:七折?

亚历克斯:是的。

雪莉:哇,太好了。你觉得对一个研究生而言,这是一个很好的系统吗?

亚历克斯:是的,它是很棒的系统。

雪莉:嗯。嘿,等等,这上面有个苹果记号,这是苹果电脑吗?

亚历克斯:是的,是麦金塔,也是苹果机。麦金塔和苹果机是一样的。

雪莉:我不想要麦金塔,我要个人电脑。

亚历克斯:很抱歉,但是大学的电脑中心只卖麦金塔设备。

雪莉:什么?说真的吗?

亚历克斯:是的。

雪莉:可是没有人用麦金塔。

亚历克斯:不会啊,这所大学大部分的学生和教授都用麦金塔。他们发现这套系统对写作和文字处理比较好,而且大多数学生都在使用它。我可以问你从哪来的呢?

雪莉:我是台湾来的。

亚历克斯:我知道苹果电脑在亚洲大多数的国家并不是很流行。但在美国这里,尤其是大学和出版社里,使用苹果电脑是非常普遍的。

雪莉:但是我需要一台可以处理中文写作的电脑。 亚历克斯:有一些中文的写作程式可以在麦金塔上使用,对苹果电脑而言,中文不是问题。    雪莉嗯……我想在做决定前请教我一些朋友的建议。很抱歉。

亚历克斯:不会,不需要抱歉。问你朋友是合理的,但是相信我,这所大学大多数的学生─-包括亚洲的学生,大部分都使用苹果电脑。

雪莉:好的,谢谢你的建议,我可能之后会再回来。

亚历克斯:非常欢迎。这是我的名片,如果你需要任何帮忙的话
