[00:04.28]Lesson 33   1 Dialogue
[00:10.03]Jenny and Mei Ge work together at a factory in China.
[00:15.78]Today they are talking about buying a new computer.
[00:20.92]Jenny:  Mei Ge,did you find out the price for the IBM PC 486?
[00:27.87]Yes,I've got the information for all the computers now.
[00:32.84]In my opinion,we should buy the IBM PC 586.
[00:39.39]First of all,it's been improved.
[00:43.76]And it's bigger,although it's more expensive.
[00:48.30]If we buy the smaller one,the IBM PC 486,
[00:54.67]we might have to change it in a few years' time for a bigger one.
[00:59.72]That would be a waste of money.What's your opinion?
[01:04.68]I believe we should buy the smaller one.
[01:08.55]Any reason?
[01:11.18]Yes.I don't think it's necessary to buy the bigger one.
[01:17.06]It would be a waste of money to buy the IBM PC 586.
[01:23.41]The IBM PC 486 will be big enough for us.
[01:30.17]I hope we can make a decision today.
[01:34.12]I believe prices might go up next week.
[01:38.48]We mustn't waste any more time.
[01:42.32]This factory needs a computer as soon as possible.
[01:47.15]We must decide which one to buy.
[01:50.99]I still think we should buy the IBM PC 586.
[01:56.74]Can you try to get them to bring down the price?
[02:01.29]Yes.I'll ring them today.
[02:04.63]OK.We'll meet again tomorrow and make a decision then.

[03:10.46]Now it is possible to find out much faster which planes are full

[03:21.48]Thanks to the new computer,passengers at the offices of the CAAC
[03:28.33]can now buy their aeroplane tickets much faster.

[03:52.15]The information on the comouter can now be used by all the CAAC offices.

[04:12.53]have been greatly helped by this new computer.
[04:17.10]As a result,the number of people who travel by plane in China

[04:31.05]"In our opinion it has become necessary to spend all this money on the new computer.
[04:38.31]Although it was expensive,we decided to buy the computer.
