Question

affordable adj.支付得起的；不太昂贵的 (1) 然而，预付费系统以及支付得起的手机本身并并不足以确保移动电话的快速普及。(2) 我们需要的是一个垄断企业，可能是政府运作的可以信赖的企业，为公众提供安全可靠的食品，并且价格是公众可以支付得起的。(3) 通过建筑和家具你可以看到原计划是要将它建成流行却不太昂贵的多功能旅馆。 If you live in an affordable city, it means that rents aren't too high for most of its residents, and if you buy an affordable dinner for yourself, it doesn't cost too much. The adjective affordable can either mean "cheap," or it can imply that even if it's expensive, you have enough money to easily buy it.
