Benjamin: What a fine day! Oh, I can enjoy reading on this balcony in a fine day like this. I like it.
Shirley: The balcony is very beautiful, but I don't like the fact that it faces north.
Benjamin: Why? What's wrong with its facing north?
Shirley: You don't know that, if the balcony faces north, it will get cool in the summer, but too cold in the winter.
Benjamin: You don't have to worry about it. We have the radiator 1 system in winter, don't we?
Shirley: The best houses face south; in that case, we will enjoy the cool wind in the summer and own the warm sunshine in the winter.
Benjamin: Oh, darling, I am sorry, but we don't have that kind of money for a south facing house.
Shirley: Well, forget it. I was just talking. The nice environment of this apartment is good for our children. I am satisfied with it.
Benjamin: Thanks. And it's convenient for you to go to work and to go shopping.
Shirley: Yes. To our children, it's also close to their schools. That's really satisfying me.
Benjamin: I am most attracted by the price. You know, this slab-type apartment building costs the least in Beijing.
Shirley: The cheapest? Are you sure? Do you know the developer?
Benjamin: Know little about the developer but I am sure this is the cheapest building here.
Shirley: Can we buy this house on mortgage?
Benjamin: Yes, and we got the urban housing provident 2 fund to pay for part of it. It's not very hard for us to come up with the money for down payment.
Shirley: Wish to move in earlier.
Benjamin: Oh, darling, refresh our memory. Our silver wedding anniversary is coming.
Shirley: (smile) Thinking about the wedding, it's just like yesterday.

本杰明：天气真好！噢，我可以在像今天这样的好天气在阳台上看书了。我喜欢这阳台。
雪莉：阳台很漂亮，但是我不喜欢它朝北。
本杰明：为什么啊？朝北有什么不好吗？
雪莉：你不知道啊，如果阳台朝北，夏天凉爽，但是冬天很冷啊。
本杰明：不用担心那个。我们冬天有暖气，不是吗？
雪莉：最好的房子是朝南的，那样的话夏天很凉快，冬天阳光很温暖。
本杰明：噢，亲爱的。很抱歉，我们没那么多钱买朝南的房子。
雪莉：好了，忘记它吧。我只是说说而已。这公寓环境不错，对孩子们有益。我对此很满意。
本杰明：谢谢。你工作和购物也很方便。
雪莉：是啊，孩子们上学也很近。这真让我满意。
本杰明：最吸引我的是价钱。你知道吧，这套板楼公寓是全北京最便宜的。
雪莉：最便宜的？你确定？你了解开发商吗？
本杰明：关于开发商我只知道一点点，但我确定这是最便宜的。
雪莉：我们能按揭买这房子吗？
本杰明：可以，我们可以用城市住房公积金来支付一部分，付头款对我们来说也不是很难。
雪莉：希望能早点搬进来。
本杰明：噢，亲爱的，回忆一下，我们的银婚纪念日快到了。
雪莉：（微笑）想想我们的婚礼，就像在昨天一样。
