Raise Solar.Lisa's speaking.
您好，这里是日升太阳能公司的丽莎。
How can I help?
请问有什么可以帮您?
Hi.My name is Winston.
你好。我叫温斯顿。
I wish to enquire about solar panel installations.
我想询问有关太阳能板安装的事宜。
Yes.What would you like to know?
好的。您想了解什么?
Well, my neighbor installed panels on his roof about a year ago, in order to power his hot water.
嗯，我的邻居大约一年前在屋顶上安装了太阳能板，为热水供电。
He tells me it has saved him over $500 thus far.
他告诉我，到目前为止，这已经为他节省了500多美元。
Does that sound about right to you?
你觉得这是真的吗?
Well, I'm not familiar with your neighbor or his particular setup.
嗯，我不太熟悉您的邻居，也不太了解他的具体设置。
But that amount is definitely possible.
但这个金额绝对是可能的。
I can tell you that the average four-bedroom house may typically have a roof with 50 square metres of surface area.
我可以告诉您，普通的四居室房屋的屋顶面积通常为50平方米。
Four panels on one side of that roof could save a family of four around $300 a year.
在屋顶的一侧安装四个面板，每年可以为一个四口之家节省300美元左右。
OK.That sounds about right, then.
好吧。那听起来是真的。
My house is about the size you described, but my neighbor's is bigger.
我的房子和你描述的差不多大，但我邻居的房子更大。
I'm not sure how many panels he has up there, but he does have a large family of six.
我不知道他在那里安了多少个电池板，但他确实有一个六口之家。
Are you interested in installing some solar panels on your roof, sir?
女士:先生，您有兴趣在屋顶上安装太阳能电池板吗?
Yes.I'm considering it.
是的。我正在考虑。
If you wish to come into our office, we could show you the different solutions we offer.
如果您愿意来我们的公司，我们可以向您展示我们提供的不同方案。
OK.I might do that.
好吧。我可能会过去。
But just quickly if you don't mind, could you tell me approximately how much a typical installation costs, like, say, four panels?
但如果你不介意的话，能告诉我大致的安装成本大约是多少钱吗，比如，四个电池板?
Prices do vary depending on different factors, but as a rough estimate, it's around $2,000.
，价格会因不同的因素有所差异，但粗略估计，大约在2000美元左右。
But you know, a typical household will make back that initial investment in about five years.
但您知道，一般的家庭大约5年就能收回最初的投资。
OK.I see.Thank you.
好吧。我明白了。谢谢你！
