  6. Can You Get a New $ 7 200 Power Table for $ 532? Yes, it’s absolutely true. You can really replace your old, worn-out exam table and only pay $532 out of your pocket. Let me explain more specifically. Last May, our little company took a big gamble and signed up for a power table promotion. In order to go on the promotion we had to agree to take 5 power tables, only three of those five tables were sold — so there are still 2 left. And my problem is your opportunity. In order to move these last two tables I’ve decided to do something somewhat bold and a little daring. Section 1 Activity 1 next

  7. Section 1 Activity 1 next First, you should know that the manufacturer’s promotion of these power tables ends July 20th. And any unsold I have could be sold to another dealer at wholesale. But instead of doing that, I would rather sell you the table at a wholesale price to gain your goodwill. The regular price for a power table is $ 7 200, but I promised you could get a power table for only $ 532 and here’s how… By buying a power table, you can qualify for a 50% tax credit under section 44 of the Americans with Disabilities Act. That’s right, fifty percent! All because a power table will glide up and down to accommodate disabled and handicapped patients.

  8. Section 1 Activity 1 That’s not all. Here are a few more incentives for you: we will give you a $ 350 trade-in for your old table, or you can donate it to charity for another tax break. And add an extra 2-year warranty ($2 000 value), plus, we’ll pick up your old table and deliver the new one all for free! Pretty good, right? Wait, I have even better news for you… You can pay in 3 installments with zero interest. We’ll break up your payments into 3 easy installments, spread thirty days apart. Why you must act before August 5th (I’ve extended the offer for two weeks)? I doubt if these tables will still be around until August 5th because the first 2 doctors that put their deposits down will take them. And then they’re gone when this offer expires.

  9. Section 1 Activity 1 translation back What you should do now is to pick up your phone and dial 609-7231 and reserve one of these last 2 tables with your credit card. Otherwise, you’ll be giving up the ease and convenience of having a power table at this bargain price. I really hope you’re one of the 2 lucky doctors who decide to take advantage of this golden opportunity. (430 words)

  16. Key: 互联网已经成为大众购物的信息高速公路。多数人喜欢网上购物，轻松自由地进行交易。事实上，互联网已经成为最强大的销售工具。网络销售为企业提供了降低成本的方法，从而增强其产品、服务的竞争力。与其他的营销模式相比，网络销售已经呈现出了减少预算和库存费用的优势。 Section 1 Activity 5 Translate a Paragraph back next

  17. 在连贯的口语表达中，如果相邻的两个单词同属一个意群，而且词之间的音节可以产生一定关联，可以将这两个单词连起来读，听起来好像拼在一起一样，这种现象叫做连读。连读所构成的音节一般不重读, 只需自然地一 带而过, 不可以加音。连读有四种类型： 1. “辅音+元音”型连读：相邻的两个单词前者以辅音结尾，后者以元音开头，可将辅音和元音连读。 2. “r/re+元音”型连读：相邻的两个单词前者以r或re结尾, 后者以元音开头,则r或re要发/r/音,并与其后的元音相拼。 3. “辅音+半元音”型连读：相邻的两个单词前者以辅音结尾，后者以半元音/j/或/w/开头，此时也要连读。 4. “元音+元音”型连读。相邻的两个单词前者以元音结尾，后者以元音开头，这两个音也要自然地连读到一起。 Section 2Window on Pronunciation next 连读 (Sound Linking)

  20. 你可以只花532美元就能买到一台 价值7 200元的崭新动力检查台吗？ 是的，这绝对是可能的。你确实可以换掉已经磨损的旧检查台，而这只需你从口袋里拿出532美元。让我为你详细解释一下。 五月，我们这个小公司冒险参加了动力检查台的优惠活动。参加此优惠活动要求我们进货5台，现只卖掉了3台，目前还剩2台。 我的问题就是你的机会！为了把这两台推销出去，我决定大胆果断地行动。 首先，你要知道生产商的优惠活动在7月20日结束，我的存货可以按批发价格转给其他经销商。但我不这么做，我情愿按批发价格卖给你们从而赢得你们的赞誉口碑。 Section 1 Chinese Translation

  21. 动力检查台的常规价格是7 200美元，但我承诺你只用花532美元就能拿到，你可以通过下列方法做到： 通过购买动力检查台，你可以符合美国残疾人法案第44条款而获得50%的税收抵免。是的，确实是50%！因为动力检查台可以滑上滑下为残疾人或瘫痪病人提供方便。 还没有说完，这里还有几项对你的奖励：我们会按350美元的价值收购你的旧检查台，或者你可以捐赠给慈善机构从而获得慈善机构捐款税务抵扣；而且你将免费获得两年的额外产品保修（价值2 000美元）；此外，我们还免费运送新的检查台和免费收取旧检查台。 Section 1 Chinese Translation

  22. 棒极了，对吗？等一下，我还有更好的消息。 你可以按三次分期付款，无息。我们可以让你按30天一期共分三次付款。 为什么你必须在8月5日之前行动（我已经将优惠活动延期了两周）？首先我拿不准到8月5日时检查台还在不在我们这，因为最先支付订金的两位医生将得到这两台检查台。卖掉以后，这些优惠就没有了。 现在你要做的就是拿起电话，拨打609-7231，用信用卡预订一台。不然，你就会失去这台超级优惠、方便使用的动力检查台。我真诚希望你就是两个决定把握这个绝佳良机的医生之一。 Section 1 Chinese Translation back
