Q&A Round 2
In recent years, the market shares of Starbucks has been sliced off by some new brands. Do you still drink Starbucks or coffee from other brands? 近些年來，星巴克的市場份額被新近咖啡品牌搶奪，你是喝星巴克還是品牌的咖啡呢？
I live in the city center so there are literally hundreds of different coffee brands for me to choose from.
City center 市中心，市區繁華地段
劃重點：
Literally 是個很地道的詞
基本大家可以記它的兩個意思：
a.According to the most basic or original meaning of a word or expression
b.Emphasize something, especially a large number, is true
如：
The Olympic Games were watched by literally billions of people.
Adam坦言不是星巴克的粉絲，高級的星巴克咖啡動輒50-60元，不是很經濟。
Generic coffee brands 普通的咖啡品牌
Generic: relating to a whole group of things rather than to one thing 類的，一般的
如：
Fine Arts is a generic term for subjects such as painting, music and sculpture.
Most of the generic coffee brands that are available have pretty much the same quality irrespective of the name of the brand.
大多數市面上普通牌子的咖啡質量都差不多。
Pretty much the same 基本相同，差不多 (一個很地道的口語表達)
Irrespective of ... 拋開不談……的話
High-end 高端的 Relating to products or services that are more expensive and of best policy than other products of the same type
High-end shoes/clothes/cars/coffee/computer memory chips
Q&A Round 3
What would be your parameters when you choose which coffee shop to go? 你對好的咖啡廳有什么標準？
For me personally, I do it so much that I have certain coffee shops in every part of the city that I wanna go to. 個人來說，我去咖啡館去得太多了，以至于，在城市的每個區域我都有想去的咖啡館。
