Eztalk美语【142】I'm such a newbie. 我真是个菜鸟

Nate:Only one. But I wanted to make sure I'd get it.

Gilly:Yeah, I really wanted that Chanel bag, too. But just in case you should bid low.

Nate:But there are only two more days until the bidding closes!

Gilly:I bid on a Chanel watch at the last minute, and got it sixty percent off!

Nate:Oh...I'm such a newbie. But at least I'm sure I'll get that tennis racket.

Gilly:Don't count on it, Babe. eBay is always full of surprises.

Nate:Well...guess how low the bidding starts on the tennis racket?

奈特：只有一人。不过我想确定自己能得标。

吉莉：对呀，我之前也很想要那个香奈儿包包。但是为防万一，你应该标低一点。

奈特：但是再过两天多这项竞标就结束了!

吉莉：我在最后一分钟才投标一支香奈儿手表，而且用四折的价钱标到喔!

奈特：喔，我真是个网络菜鸟。不过至少我确定我会得到那支网球拍。

吉莉：别太笃定，宝贝。eBay是永远都充满惊喜。

奈特：那么……猜猜这个网球拍底标有多低?
