JOHN: Excuse me. Do you have a minute?

I’d like to tell you about the Bucky Card.

DAVE: Well... alright. I guess I have a minute.

JOHN: Do you know about the Bucky Card?

DAVE: I’ve heard about it, but I don’t really know about it.

JOHN: The Bucky Card is a great way for you to save money

while you have a good time here at school.

It gives you discounts on all kinds of things. Movies, pizza, clothing, school supplies.

DAVE: What about beer?

JOHN: The Card doesn’t actually give you discounts on beer.

But it will give you discounts on certain club cover charges.

So if you want to see your favorite band at Amy’s or Cosmo’s Club,

you get a discount on the entrance fee.

DAVE: That’s pretty cool. How much of a discount?

JOHN: Usually it’s two dollars off the cover price.

DAVE: And all these other things, pizza and movies for instance--

how much of a discount do I get on that stuff?

JOHN: This pamphlet shows you what restaurants and movie theaters have discounts.

And twice every semester we will send you a new issue of the pamphlet.

The Bucky Card has just started.

Every couple months we have new businesses joining our program.

It’s a great way for students to save money!

DAVE: Alright, alright. Let me look at that pamphlet.

Hmm. Alessio’s Pizza Parlor. That’s cool. I go there all the time.

And Cosmo’s Club. And 4-D records. Alright. How much does it cost?

JOHN: It costs only 19 dollars a year for a card.

DAVE: Whoah! That’s expensive! It should be cheaper.

JOHN: But think of how much money you’ll save! You can use it for a year.

DAVE: Yeah, maybe. Alright. Give me an application form.

翰：抱歉。你有時間嗎?

我想告訴你有關爆奇卡的事。

迪夫：嗯……好吧，我想我是有一點時間。

約翰：你知道有關爆奇卡的事嗎?

迪夫：我是聽過，但我并不是很了解。

約翰：爆奇卡是一個能讓你省錢的好工具，

尤其當你在學校就讀的時候。

它可以給你很多方面的折扣：電影、披薩、衣服和學校用品。

迪夫：那么啤酒呢?

約翰：這張卡并沒有給你啤酒的折扣。

但它可以給你某些俱樂部入場費的折扣。

所以如果你想要在艾美或是在科斯莫俱樂部看你最喜歡的樂團，

你可以拿到入場費的折扣。

迪夫：那真的很酷，折扣是多少?

約翰：通常是少付2美元入場費的折扣。

迪夫：還有這些其他的東西，像是披薩和電影……

我可以拿到多少的折扣呢?

約翰：這本冊子告訴你哪些餐廳和戲院有折扣。

一個學期我們會寄兩本新的冊子給你。

爆奇卡才剛剛開始贈送。

每兩個月就會有新的商店加入我們的方案。

這是一個讓學生省錢的很好方式。

迪夫：好，好吧。讓我瞧瞧那本冊子。

嗯，亞力希歐披薩，太酷了。我常去那里。

還有科斯莫俱樂部和四度空間唱片行。好，這張卡要多少錢?

約翰：一年只要花十九美元。

迪夫：哇!那太貴了!應該要便宜一點。

約翰：但想想看你可以省很多錢!你可以使用一年。

迪夫：是，或許吧。好吧，給我一份申請表吧。
