Jeff: That's great. That means I can bring my cat, Mr. Twinkles. Where is the apartment located?
Sarah: It says it's located in the suburbs.
Professor Bowman, 什么是 pet-friendly building?
Professor: It means that pets are welcome in that building.
MC: A pet-friendly building 是可以养宠物的公寓。
Professor: Exactly. In the next section, listen for the term "a steal." What do you think that means?
MC: Hmm ... steal在这里一定不是偷东西,而是指a very good deal, 就是说特别划算!
Professor: You got it!
Jeff: It's located in the suburbs? Well even though that sounds like a steal, I really want something downtown.
Sarah: OK. Well the problem is that the apartments in the heart of the city are usually more expensive.
Jeff: I know, that's my problem. What do you think I should do?
Sarah: Well, maybe you could get a two-bedroom apartment downtown and share the rent with a roommate.
Jeff: Oh, great idea!
Professor: So Winnie, can you tell me what the opposite of "the suburbs" is?
The suburbs指郊区,相反的肯定是downtown,也就是市区! 不过,他们说"in the heart of something"是什么意思?
Professor: Being in the heart of something is the same as being in the very middle of it.
