[00:55.29]Now, you probably know that 'surfing' is a verb we use for looking at things on the internet. 现在你或许知道"surfing"是我们用来指在网上找东西的一个动词。

[01:52.50]Well, we'll find out if you're right later in the programme. 好的，稍后我们将在节目里揭晓你是否正确。
[01:55.32]Now, this research also revealed that approximately 40% of people have abandoned an online shopping basket in the last year. 现在，这项调查同样表明去年大约有40%的人不要他们购物筐里的东西了。
[02:04.19]And it was calculated that this meant there was approximately 18 billion pounds worth of lost sales. 而且据估计这意味着大约有180亿英镑的销售损失。
[02:10.88]I have to say, I'm a bit sceptical about that figure. 我不得不说，我对那个数字有所怀疑。
[02:13.76]I don't trust it. 我不相信。
[02:14.95]We don't always intend to buy everything we put in our baskets. 我们不总是想要买所有被我们放进购物车的东西。

[02:41.11]So I agree: I don't think that the figure of 18 billion represents a total. 所以我同意，我不认为180亿那个数字代表全部。
[02:46.46]Some of that was never intended to be spent and some would have gone to other stores. 其中有一些是没打算买的，而且有一些是去别家店铺购买的。

[03:34.40]We found that something over 70% of the retailers hadn't invested in the payment process in the last two years, so the technology is really out of date. 我们发现在过去两年里有超过70%的零售业没有投资支付过程，所以支付技术真的过时了。
[03:44.16]Whereas they have potentially invested in getting us to that page and then they fell foul. 然而反之他们有可能投资引导人们进入购物网页，然后就有冲突了。

[04:07.57]She says that companies invest in the shopping experience of their sites but have ignored the checkout process. 她说公司对自己网站的购物体验进行投资，但是却忽略了付款过程。

[04:44.40]Some of the time would be nice. 有对的时候就好。

[05:02.77]Ah, good point, good point. 额，说得好，说得好。
[05:03.90]The verb 'to turf out' means 'to remove someone from a place or organisation, possibly because they've broken the rules or behaved badly'. 动词“to turf out“指的是“将某人从一个地方或者组织赶走，可能是因为他们破坏了规则或者是举止恶劣”。
[05:12.32]For example, if we don't finish the programme on time, we might be turfed out of this studio. 例如，如果我们不准时完成节目，我们或许会被赶出这个演播室。
[05:17.62]The place where you pay for your shopping, either in a real shop or online is the checkout. 为你购物付款的地方，不管是在实体商店还是网上店铺，是收款台。
[05:22.96]That can be a verb as well as a noun: you check out at the checkout. 那可以是一个动词也可以是一个名词：你在付款台付款。
[05:27.18]The businesses that sell you things are retailers. 卖给你东西的业务叫做零售业。
[05:30.56]And with hope they don't sell you things that are out of date, because that would mean they are past their best - too old to be suitable. 希望他们没有卖给你过时的东西，因为那意味着它们过了最好的时候：太老旧以至于不适合。
[05:38.21]And finally there was to fall foul of something or someone, which is 'to make a mistake and get into trouble with someone'. 最后是和某事或者某人冲突，那是指犯错并且和他人陷入麻烦。
[05:45.49]And as we don't want to fall foul of the next team who need to use this studio, it's just time for us to say goodbye and to remind you to join us again for 6 Minute English next time. 而且我们不想和接下来要使用演播室的团队发生冲突，是时候说再见了，而且要记得下次再来参加我们的六分钟英语。
