【双语对话】

Melanie: Do you want to try pet hotel? I walked past one today and it just came to me that we could leave the piggies there.

你想试试宠物酒店吗？ 我今天路过一个，突然想到我们可以把小猪留在那里。

Coco: I am open to it, as long as the price is reasonable.

我愿意，只要价格合理。

Melanie: I can call a few places.

那我打电话给几个地方。

Coco: What did they say?

他们说什么？

Melanie: Well, one hotel says that they only accept dogs and cats. The other one was very obnoxious. They wouldn't give me a quote and just kept pushing me to submit a form. The reason was that every situation is unique, and they need more information about our pigs to decide the price.

em，一家旅馆说他们只接受狗和猫。 另一个非常讨厌。 他们不会给我报价，只是一直催我提交表格。 原因是每种情况都是独一无二的，他们需要更多关于我们猪的信息才能决定价格。

Coco: Are there guinea pig hotels?

有豚鼠旅馆吗？

Melanie: I doubt it. I found a guinea pig house run by a person who has her own pigs. Basically, what she does it that she uses the rest of the space in her house to host other pigs. However, in the reviews people say that they paid 20 dollars per day for one pig. If we leave both of our pigs there for a week, that's gonna be over 200 bucks, which is totally not worth it.

我觉得够呛。我找到了一个豚鼠屋，由一个拥有自己的猪的人经营。 基本上，她所做的就是利用她家的其余空间来照看其他猪。 然而，在评论中，人们说他们每天为一头猪支付 20 美元。 如果我们把两只猪都放在那里一个星期，那将超过 200 美元，这完全不划算。
