Talking about Online Shopping
Anna: I'm gonna buy something on the Internet, but I've never shopped online before. What are the benefits and drawbacks?
安娜：我要在网上买点东西，但是我从来没在网上买过东西。网上购物有什么优点和缺点呢？
Ben: Now, with only a few clicks of a mouse, you can go online to buy just about anything you want. It's quick, easy, convenient and economical. But, just as in the bricks-and-mortar world, the Internet shopping experience can be marred by unscrupulous dealers who constantly devise new ways to deceive consumers out of their money.
本：现如今，你只要点几下鼠标，就差不多可以在网上买任何你想要的东西了。网上购物快捷、轻松、方便、而且经济。但是，就像在现实世界中一样，那些不择手段不断翻新花样骗取消费者钱财的经销商都会破坏人们的购物体验。
Anna: So how to shop safely and wisely online?
安娜：那么怎样才能使网上购物既安全又明智呢？
Ben: You need to keep a few tips in mind. First, always shop on secure sites. Second, be familiar with the name or reputation of any company you're dealing with. Third, check for expected delivery dates, shipping and handling fees, warranties, return policies and other important information. Fourth, secure your computer. At a minimum, your computer should have anti-virus and anti-spyware software and a firewall. Finally, be wary of identity theft. Never give out your ID card number.
本：你要记住几个小提示。首先，只到安全的网站买东西。第二，要熟悉任何与你做交易的公司的名字和信誉。第三，核对交货日期、运输及手续费、保修事宜、退货制度和其他重要信息。第四，保证
你的计算机的安全。至少应该装有防病毒、反间谍软件和防火墙。最后，要当心身份被盗。永远不要透漏你的身份证号。
Anna: Wow, you know a lot about this.
安娜：哇，你懂得可真多。
Ben: Yeah, I do a lot of online shopping. I hope you enjoy your first online shopping experience.
本：是的，我经常在网上买东西。希望你的首次网上购物之旅愉快。
