One topic that never goes away is prices. It’s not surprising really. Prices affect us all. The news recently has been about rising prices. But then I suppose that’s always been the news. Prices have been rising a lot though. Especially food. I reckon 1 food prices have gone up 50 per cent in the last year alone. This is because of a rise in the price of oil and because of commodity 2 prices. Everything has gone up. People also complain when some prices go down. When house prices decrease, homeowners get upset. I want to buy a house, so I’m quite happy when houses are cheaper. I would like to see hotel and airline prices come down. Then I can have a nice holiday.



1 reckon
vt.计算,估计,认为;vi.计(算),判断,依靠
  • Don't reckon upon your relatives to help you out of trouble.不要指望你的亲戚会帮助你摆脱困境。
  • I reckon that he is rather too old to marry again.我认为他的年龄太大,不太适于再婚。
2 commodity
n.日用品,商品,物品
  • The authorities took measures to roll commodity price back.当局采取措施使物价全面回降。
  • Commodity prices remain stable and there are plenty of goods on the market.商品价格稳定,市场货源充足。
