1--It’s freezing in here! Can I turn up the heat?
2--Don’t touch that thermostat! You don’t pay the bills around here!
1--Dad! Are you serious? What’s the point of having central heating if we can’t use it! Look, I can see my breath!
2--Put on a sweater! I’m not gonna let you run up my heating bill just because it’s a bit chilly.
1--Dad! I’m gonna catch a cold!
2--When I was your age, my parents didn’t have central heating like you do! We had a furnace in the center of the living room and that was it. We used it to cook, heat the house and even dry our clothes! We never caught a cold. You should be grateful!

2--別碰那個恒溫器。這兒的東西你從來沒付過費。
1--爸爸,你是說真的嗎?如果我們不用中央取暖系統(tǒng),為什么要安裝它呢?看看,我都能看見自己的呼氣。
2--穿件毛衣。我不會僅僅因為有點冷而增加我們的取暖花費。
1--爸爸,我會感冒的。
2--當(dāng)我是你這個年齡時,我父母并沒有這樣的中央取暖系統(tǒng)。僅在起居室里有個火爐。我們用她來做飯,取暖,甚至來烘烤衣服。我們從未感冒過。你應(yīng)該心存感激。
