金钱与价格 初学者
什么是金钱和价格?
金钱 是用于购买商品和服务的一种货币形式。价格 是购买商品或服务所需的金额。在本课中,你将学习如何用英语询问和讨论价格。
如何询问金钱和价格
在询问价格时,可以使用如下问题:“How much is this/that...?” 或 “How much are these/those...?” 回答时可以用 “It’s/They’re...” 来回答。例如:
- 'How much is the book?' + 'It’s 10 dollars. '
- 这本书多少钱? + 10美元。
- 'How much are these pens?' + 'They’re 50 dollars. '
- 这些笔多少钱? + 50美元。
如何读价格
可以用不同的结构来读出物品的价格,以下是最常见的几种方式:
$4.60 → four-sixty
4.60 美元 → 四点六十
直接读出数字。
$4.60 → four dollars sixty
4.60 美元 → 四美元六十
可以读成数字 + dollars,后面的小数部分直接读出。
$4.60 → four dollars and sixty cents
4.60 美元 → 四美元六十美分
可以读成数字 + dollars + “and” + 小数部分 + cents。
注意力!
当价格是整数时,可以直接读出数字 + dollars/pounds/euros等。
$200 → two hundred dollars
200美元。
$80 → eighty dollars
80美元。
注意力!
美元符号($)写在数字之前,且符号与数字之间不留空格。
