英语词汇:Pawnbroker 当铺(英语听力)ZT
Programme Introduction 节目简介
Many people are surprised to find that pawnbrokers still exist, let alone thrive, in 21st Century Britain.
And with banks and credit card companies becoming more selective about whom they lend their monies to, pawnbrokers are filling the gap.
With modern shop fittings, the modern-day pawnbrokers have sprung up in prime locations in town centres.
So how does it work and can they really help people in financial distress? Helen and Feifei investigate.
很多人都没有想到当铺在21世纪的英国竟然有着这么好的生意。在现在经济萧条的情况下,银行和信贷公司都不愿意随便借钱给人们了,所以当铺可是越来越红火。
现在的当铺开在商业街最好的位置,有着时髦的装修,吸引着不同的顾客。他们到底是这样运作的呢?他们是不是真的能够帮到缺钱的人呢?Helen 和菲菲进行调查。
