Too Many Packages

太多包裹了

— English reading, A2

文章

During the last year, I started buying almost everything online. It was easy and fast, and I didn't have to carry heavy bags home.
過去這一年,我開始幾乎什麼都在網路上買。又簡單又快,也不用把重重的袋子提回家。
But soon there were boxes everywhere in my apartment. Some things looked different from the photos, and many clothes didn't fit. Sending them back took a lot of time.
但很快地,我的公寓裡到處都是箱子。有些東西跟照片看起來不一樣,很多衣服也不合身。寄回去花了好多時間。
One day I checked my bank account and was shocked. I had spent twice as much as the year before.
有一天我查了銀行帳戶,嚇了一跳。我花的錢是前一年的兩倍。
Now I have a new rule. If I want something, I wait three days before I order it. Usually I forget about it, and I save a lot of money.
現在我定了一條新規矩:如果想買什麼,先等三天再下單。通常我就忘了,因此省下了很多錢。
