台灣房價漲不停:付更多,空間卻變小 The rising price of housing in Taiwan: pay more for less space

There is no end to the rising price of housing in Taiwan. According to a survey, we are spending more on housing but getting less space.

Between January and October this year, the median price of a residential apartment in Taiwan’s municipalities reached NT$11.55 million, up 9.4% on a yearly basis. However, while people are spending more on housing in the past few months, the median size of houses they purchased decreased by 5%.

For example, people who bought a condo in Hsinchu City this year had to pay NT$1.22 million more for a smaller space compared to a year ago.

友善讓你懂|解說:

 
台灣房價上漲似乎看不到盡頭。根據調查顯示,現在我們買房花費更多,但取得的空間卻變少了。

今年 1 月至 10 月期間,台灣直轄市住宅公寓房價中位數達到新台幣 1,155 萬元,年成長率高達 9.4%。只是,雖然民眾過去幾個月花在買房的錢變多了,但房子的面積中位數卻降低 5 %。

舉例來說,今年在新竹購買公寓的人,比前一年要多付 122 萬新台幣,買到的空間卻更小。

輕鬆帶著走|學習:

 
on a yearly basis 是「每年一次」。可以指行為,例如每年招聘新人,也可以指相關數據每年變化一次,例如本文中例子。

例句:​​The information is updated on a yearly basis.
這些資訊每年都會更新。
