Gill: That's really convenient. We were wondering if you could take a little off the rent, though.

LL: I can take two thousand off. That'll make the rent twenty-eight thousand.

Gill: That's great. Every little bit counts. And we don't need the parking space. I guess we could rent it out.

LL: Sure, for at least three thousand per month.

Gill: That'll bring the price down to twenty-five. That's the price we were shooting for.

LL: I'm glad. Now, there's a deposit fee of two month's rent.

減除，減(價(jià))

If you buy one hundred now, I can take off ten percent.

如果你現(xiàn)在用一百元買，我可以給你打九折。

bring the price down to...

把價(jià)錢壓低到…

If you can bring the price down a bit, I may be able to afford it.

如果你可以降一點(diǎn)價(jià)，我可能就買得起了。

shoot for

設(shè)定…目標(biāo)

Let's shoot for a Tuesday departure.

我們就決定星期二出發(fā)吧。

deposit fee

押金，保證金

I'll need a deposit fee before I can let you rent that jeep.

先給我押金，我才會(huì)把那部吉普車租給你。

吉爾：那樣真方便。不過(guò)我們想知道你房租可不可以降一點(diǎn)。

房東：我可以減個(gè)兩千元。那樣就是二萬(wàn)八千元。

吉爾：太棒了。能省多少是多少。而且我們不需要車位。我想我們可以租出去。

房東：當(dāng)然，租金至少可以定在一個(gè)月三千元。

吉爾：那樣房租就壓低到頂多兩萬(wàn)五千元了。那正是我們?cè)驹O(shè)定的價(jià)格。

房東：我很高興。還有，押金是兩個(gè)月的房租。
