如下：

　　从某种意义上说，超市大大地便利了我们的生活。你赞成吗？

　　Supermarkets have greatly facilitated our life some sense. Do you agree with me

　　是的。而且多亏有.条形，我们才能方码便地在超市购物。

　　Yes. And it is thanks to bar code that we can do our shopping conveniently in supermarkets.

　　条形码

　　Bar code

　　它是印在消费品包装上的一系列不同宽度的条纹。

　　Its a series of bars or stripes of varying widths printed on consumer product packages.

　　Its a pattern of thick and thin bars, or stripes which is printed on consumer product packages.

　　哦，我知道你在说什么了。

　　Oh, I know what you arc referring to.

　　oh, I know what you arc speaking about.

　　那也叫通用产品码。

　　Its also called universal product code

　　没错。条形码也有助于超市控制库存量。当条形码经过付款台处的电子扫描器时，电脑识别出整个形状。它读取条形码，商品价格就会出现在放钱抽屉上的显示屏上。同时一件商品就从总库存中减去了。

　　Right. It also helps the supermarket to control its inventory. The computer recognizes the whole shape of a bar code when it passes across the electronic scanner at a shops checkout counter. It reads the bar code and the price of the product appears on the till display. At the same time one item is deducted from the stock total.
