Benjamin：How big is this parking lot in our community?
Security guard: It has fifty parking spaces.
Benjamin: So you guys should be always busy.
Security guard: Why?
Benjamin: I bet it is always full of cars.
Security guard: Quite the contrary, sir. Plenty of the spaces here are free
when people drive their cars out to work.
Benjamin: Ah…I see.
Security guard: We plan to rent some of them out at the hourly rates.
Benjamin: What is the hourly rate for a car like this?
Security guard: I am not sure. But it'll be at least ten yuan an hour.
Benjamin: How mush would it cost if someone parks here for one hour and ten
minutes?
Security guard: That would be twenty yuan, sir. We charge only by the
number of hours, no split of each hour.
Benjamin: That's expensive.

本杰明：我们社区的停车场有多大?
保安：这儿有50个停车位。
本杰明：那你们一定会很忙吧。
保安：为什么呢?
本杰明：我猜它一直车满为患。
保安：恰恰相反，先生。人们把车开出去上班时，这儿很多车位都空了。
本杰明：呵......我知道了。
保安：我们打算把一部分车位按小时收费租出去。
本杰明：那每小时停车收费是多少呢?
保安：我不敢肯定。不过不会少于10元钱。
本杰明：如果有人在这里停了1小时零10分钟呢?
保安：那就是20块钱了，先生。我们只按小时整点收费，不按部分收费。
经典背诵 Recitation
Security guard: There are fifty parking spaces in our community's parking
lot. But it's almost empty during the day time because people drive their cars
out to work . So I suppose it's a good idea to rent some of the parking spaces
out at hourly rates. That would be a good way to make some money.
