What utilities am I responsible for? 租金是多少?押金又是多少?我要负担哪些公共设施?Rent 这个词除了当动词出租外,也可当名词租金解释。所以当你想询问对方租金是多少时,可以说:How much is the rent? 或是 How much is it per month?

24、时如果被招租人 (leaser) 发现有什么家具被房客 (tenant, lessee) 用坏时,他们就可以从这笔 deposit 当中扣除。Utilities 泛指一般的公共设施及水电瓦斯,一般租房子是不包括 utilities费用的,所以租房子时免不了要先问,Are utilities included?

27、偶尔”的意思了。1.27 By nature all men are alike, but by education widely different.性相近,习相远。三字经中的第二句话,句子是比较地道的英文翻译。最主要的,是熟练使用介词by的一种用法:(表示方法、手段)靠,用,通过(With the use or help of, through);在方面(with respect to)。例句:The apples are sold by catty. 苹果论斤卖。He did well by me. 他待我好。1.28 Nothing could damp down his spirit
