如果你中了彩票會(huì)怎么做

來聽今天的講解:

A: James!

詹姆斯！

B: Yo!

嗨！

A: if you had a million dollars...

如果你有一百萬美元……

B: Mm-hm...

嗯……

A: if you won the lottery...

如果你中了彩票……

B: Yes.

是的。

A: What would you do?

你會(huì)怎么做？

B: I would buy a small island, build a house there, and invest the rest of my money so that I would never have to work again.

我會(huì)買一座小島，在上面建一座房屋，并且把所有的錢都拿來投資，這樣我就不用再工作了。

A: OK, So are you talking a tropical island, or...

好的，你想買熱帶小島，還是……

B: A tropical island, yeah, or maybe I would give it all to charity and have a bridge named after me.

我喜歡熱帶島嶼，也許我會(huì)把所有錢都捐給慈善機(jī)構(gòu)，并且用我的名字捐建一座橋。

A: That's two different things there. How bout the island? Would you want to be alone, on a secluded island or?

這完全是兩碼事。那買小島呢？你是想一個(gè)人生活在荒島上，還是？

B: No, I would want all of my friends to come and visit me often.

不，我希望我的朋友能經(jīng)常來看我。

A: OK. Nice. So how would you pass the time on this island?

很棒。你在島上要怎么打發(fā)時(shí)間？

B: I would read books. I would study. I would go swimming, go fishing, and play with my dog.

我會(huì)讀書，學(xué)習(xí)。我會(huì)去游泳，釣魚，和我的狗一起玩。

A: OK. Do think money can make people happy, can buy happiness?

好的。你覺得金錢能使人高興嗎，能換來幸福嗎？

B: No, but it can sometimes make it easier. It depends on what you buy.

不能，但有時(shí)能讓人活得更好。這取決于你怎么花錢了。
