A：I want to ask you for a favor. I want to rent an apartment here in Beijing, but as a foreigner, I don't know the normal practice. Can you give me some advice?

　　我想请你帮个忙。我想在北京租一套公寓，但我是外国人，不知道该怎么找。能不能给点建议呢?

　　B：First, why don't you tell me what you need, such as how big a room, where you want to live, whether you want to live downtown, and what you like to do. Then I can figure out which apartment is most suitable for you.

　　首先，你得告诉我你想要什么样的公寓，比如房间要多大，想住在哪儿，是不是要住在市区，有什么爱好。然后我才知道什么样的公寓最适合你。

　　A：I am a student and want to live in Haidian, so that I can live close to my school. I like to play soccer and I like a quiet apartment so I can study.

　　我是个学生，想住在海淀，这样离学校近一点儿。我喜欢踢足球，我想要一个安静的公寓来学习。

　　B：I think that an apartment with two rooms and a kitchen would suit your needs. I can introduce you to a place for rent near your school. The apartment is on the 7th floor, so it is very quiet and suitable for studying.

　　我觉得两居室带一个厨房的公寓就很适合你。我可以介绍学校附近一处公寓给你。在七楼，非常安静，很适合学习。

　　A：That sounds great!

　　听起来不错!

　　B：You can also go to the school's sports field to play soccer, and if you're lucky you might make some Chinese friends there. It is right near the market and has comfortable facilities.

　　你可以去学校的操场踢足球，说不定你还可以交到一些中国朋友。公寓离市场很近，内部设施也不错。

　　A：Thank you so much. That's very kind of you.

　　非常感谢，你太好了。
