Husband:
I've been looking into vacation homes. I think we should consider
buying one.
丈夫: 我一直在留意别墅，我们可以考虑买一处。
Wife: How could
we afford such a luxury?
妻子: 我们怎么付得起这么一大笔钱？
Husband: Think
of it as an investment in our health, peace and enjoyment of
life. Look at the picture of this beautiful and secluded lakeside
property.
丈夫: 我想这是对我们的健康、宁静和快乐的生活的一笔投资。看看这美丽幽静的湖畔住宅。
Wife: What an
amazing view! Still health and peace don't pay the bills.
妻子: 确实漂亮！可健康和宁静不能用来付账单。
Husband: True,
but it’s prime real estate with proven resale and high rental
value. It would also be an investment in our future.
丈夫: 是的，但是这是一流的房地产，有确定的投资价值，还有很高的出租价值。这也是我们未来的一笔投资呀。
Wife:
And it is nice to get away from the daily grind now and again.
Maybe we can afford it after all.
妻子: 偶尔逃避日常生活的劳碌倒也不错。或许我们能买得起。
