معنی و توضیح
The word “review,” in this podcast, means a written opinion about the quality of a book, movie, or TV show, often read by other people who are trying to decide whether they want to read or watch a particular thing: “Jurgen always reads the reviews before buying a new book.” The word “review” also means an examination of something, especially to decide whether it is good or bad: “The federal government is conducting a review of its healthcare policies.” Sometimes a “review” is a written report: “Is anyone writing a review of the recent research on the housing market?” Finally, a “review” can be a section in a chapter or book that reminds readers of what they have read or studied, especially so that they can prepare for a test: “It’s a good idea to study the chapter review before class, because the professor always asks questions from that section.”

This episode is called “Renting a Movie.” It is a dialogue between Brenda and Jang, talking about renting movies to watch at home. Let’s get started.
Brenda: I have to return these movies in the drop box today or I’ll have late fees. Can I get you anything while I’m out?
Jang: Are you still renting movies from the video store? I use a service that delivers the movies to my mailbox. There are never any late fees.
Brenda: I’ve thought about subscribing to one of those services, but I think I would really miss browsing at the video store.
