W: Some advice before you sign a tenancy. Read what is included: here water is included but electricity is not, and that separation matters more in winter than people expect. Check whether the apartment is furnished, and if so, get a detailed list with the agent, because a missing chair becomes your problem in a year's time. Photograph every mark on the walls on the day you move in. Finally, ask what happens if you leave early; that is the clause tenants read last and regret first.簽租約前給你一些建議。先看包含哪些費用:這裡含水費但不含電費,而這種分開計算在冬天的影響比大家想的更大。確認房子是否附家具,若有,要與仲介取得一份詳細清單,因為少了一張椅子,一年後就會變成你的問題。搬進去當天,把牆上每個痕跡都拍下來。最後,問清楚提前退租會怎樣;那正是房客最後才讀、最先後悔的條款。

M: Here is how to make moving day manageable. Pack the room you use least first, and the kitchen last. Label every box on the side, not the top, because boxes are stacked. Keep valuables and documents with you rather than in the van. Load the heaviest items first and against the front wall, or the whole load shifts at the first corner. And put one box of essentials in the car: kettle, mugs, toilet paper, a flashlight.以下是讓搬家日變得可以掌控的方法。先打包最少用的房間,廚房留到最後。在箱子的側面貼標籤,不要貼上面,因為箱子會疊起來。貴重物品與證件請自己帶著,不要放進貨車。最重的東西先裝,靠著前壁,否則整車貨在第一個轉彎就會位移。另外,在車上放一箱必需品:水壺、馬克杯、衛生紙、手電筒。

Q30. Where should boxes be labeled?箱子該貼在哪裡?
Q31. Why load the heaviest items first?為什麼最重的東西先裝?
W: Renting has changed in this city in one clear way: people move far more often. Twenty years ago the average tenancy lasted six years; today it is under two. That has consequences nobody planned. Tenants furnish less, because furniture is hard to move, so demand for furnished apartments has doubled. Neighbors know each other less well. And landlords spend more on repainting than on repairs, because an apartment between tenants is empty, and an empty apartment earns nothing.這座城市的租屋有一個明顯的改變:人們搬家的頻率高多了。二十年前平均租期是六年;今天不到兩年。這帶來了沒人預料到的後果。房客比較少自己買家具,因為家具難搬,所以附家具房源的需求加倍。鄰居彼此也比較不熟。而房東花在重新粉刷的錢多過修繕,因為換房客期間房子是空的,空屋不會有收入。
Q32. How long does an average tenancy last today?今天平均租期多長?
Q33. Why has demand for furnished apartments doubled?附家具房源需求為何加倍?
Q34. Why do landlords spend on repainting?房東為什麼花錢重新粉刷?
| Apartment | Rent | Deposit | Furnished | Bills |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Apartment B | NT$19,500 | 3 months | Yes | Not included |
| Apartment C | NT$21,000 | 2 months | Yes | Not included |
| Apartment D | NT$26,000 | 2 months | Yes | Included |
M: Please look at the printed comparison of four apartments while I go through them. Notice that the cheapest apartment is not the cheapest to live in: it has no insulation, and last winter's heating cost more than the rent saved. Apartment B is furnished but the deposit is three months rather than two. Apartment D is the only one where the bills are included, which makes budgeting simple even though the headline rent looks high.我逐項說明時請看印出的四間公寓比較。請注意最便宜的公寓住起來不是最便宜的:它沒有隔熱,去年冬天的暖氣費超過省下的租金。B 戶附家具,但押金是三個月而非兩個月。D 戶是唯一含帳單的,這讓預算變得簡單,即使表面租金看起來很高。
Q35. According to the table and the talk, which apartment makes budgeting simplest?根據表格與談話,哪一間讓編列預算最單純?
