对话文本
G: Have you heard about the new iphone?
C: yes, I heard it's supposed to come out in June. Are you thinking about getting one?
G: I'd like to. It's a cell phone, camera, PDA and mp3 palyer all in one.
C: if I had enough money, I'd buy one, but I don't even have enough to buy one of their shuffle iPods.
G: how big is a shuffle iPod?
C: the first generation iPod shuffle is about the size of a park of gum and the second generation iPod shuffle is about half the size of the first.
G: how many gigs of music can it hold?
C: I think it's either one or two gigs. I can't remember.
G: how much do they cost?
C: not much at all. I think it's about 100 dollars.
G: you're right, that's not bad at all.
C: do you have an iPod?
G: I got one for my birthday when they first came out, but after the battery died out, I never brought another one.
C: why didn't you just buy another battery for it so you could use it?
G: that's one of the problems with having an iPod. Though an iPod might have an above average battery life, once the battery is dead, so is your iPod.

你听说要出iPhone了吗?
听说了我听说6月份推出.你打算买一个吗?
我想买.它集手机,相机,掌上电脑和mp3播放器功能于一体.
如果有足够的钱,我也会买,不过我连买个苹果shuffle播放器的钱都没有.
shuffle有多大?
第一代shuffle大概是一包口香糖那么大,第二代产品只有第一代的一半大.
能存多少G的音乐?
我想大概容量是1到2个G左右.我记不清了.
要多少钱?
不太贵.我想大概是100美元.
你说的没错,这东西还真不赖.
你有苹果MP3播放器吗?
刚推出的时候别人送了我一个作为生日礼物,但是后来电池坏了之后我就没再买过新的了.
你为什么不再买块电池,那样不就能继续用了吗?
这也是iPod的一个毛病.虽然它的电池寿命高于普通电池,但是只要电池坏了,你的iPod播放器也就完蛋了.
