沒有，我妻子不喜歡旅游。我們已經(jīng)有十年多沒有旅游過了。第一次是在1978年我們剛結(jié)婚時一起去旅游過。我們在阿爾卑斯山度過了我們的蜜月。

B：Oh, I see. Yeah. Some people like traveling, some don’t. My husband didn’t like traveling at first, either. He said what’s the use of traveling? A waste of money and a waste of time.At last I got him on the move. After all, he loved me. We went to Bali, Indonesia, one of the most beautiful places in the world. That trip left a very deep impression on him. Since then whenever we have holidays and money, we’d like to patronize the travel agency. Isn’t it a bit dull to shut yourself at one place all your life?

哦，我明白了。是啊。一些人喜歡旅游，一些人不喜歡。我的丈夫開始也不喜歡旅游。他說,旅游有什么好?浪費錢又浪費時間。最后我使他也行動起來。畢竟他是愛我的。我們?nèi)チ擞《饶嵛鱽喌陌屠飴u，世界上最漂亮的地方之一。那次旅行使他留下了深刻的印象。從那以后，每當我們有假日和錢，我們就喜歡惠顧旅行社。一生把自己關(guān)在一個地方不是有點乏味嗎?
