A：好消息!我们马上就可以使用到更快速更便宜的网络服务了。我在新闻里了解到，中国今年将向300多个城市部署千兆宽带接入网络，将中小型企业平均服务费降低15％。 B: That’s great! Although optical fiber broadban

A: Good news! We are going to enjoy faster and cheaper Internet services soon. I read a news report saying that China will extend gigabit broadband connection to more than 300 cities and cut the average service rates by 15 percent for small and medium-sized enterprises this year.
B：太好了!虽然目前都是使用光纤宽带，但有时候速度还是慢，而且不稳定。我有时候看视频要等待缓冲，非常影响心情。有时候在公司跟同事开网络会议的时候宽带也经常掉线。希望这次宽带升级之后，这些问题都能得到解决。
A: Of course. Faster Internet will definitely give you better experience. Pilot projects have already been carried out in more than 100 Chinese cities. The download speed will be greatly improved and you will be able to watch more high definition films without any lag.
B：你刚刚好像还提到的降费的问题。我们公司IT部门的同事经常跟我抱怨网络服务费用高。这个对于企业来说，特别是一些中小企业而言，真是一大福利，可以帮助他们降低一部分经营成本，而同时更快速的网络又能提高工作效率。
A: Yes! The goal is to cut the average broadband service rate for small and medium-sized enterprises by 15 percent, and the average rate for mobile Internet services by no less than 20 percent.
B：其实我觉得除了提速降费之外，还应该要扩大宽带的覆盖范围。一些公共区域，像是医院或学校，也需要覆盖网络。比如医院，如果有网络覆盖，大家在候诊的时候可以上上网，也更方便大家使用手机支付费用。
