I did a little research and found some really cool tours
10、 and - LH: Larry, 我不是很想去多伦多，我想去个有热带风情的地方。 Larry: Tropical? LH: 没错!你说加勒比海怎么样？ Larry: The Caribbean? Wow, that is very tropical. actually, I know someone who went there last summer, let me give him a call - LH: 不过! 我又非常想去泰国，那里的水果和美食太诱人了! Larry: What? Thailand? Make up your mind, Lihua! LH: Make up? 化妆
11、？你在说什么啊？ Larry: No, not the make-up you put on your face. To make up your mind means to make a choice and stick to it. LH: 哦，to make up your mind就是拿定主意。 Larry: Yea. For example, it often takes you a long time to make up your mind when it comes to what to wear when we go out. LH: 这倒是。出门前我总是不能决定穿哪身衣服。
12、 Larry: And what about your friend at school that couldnt decide which class she wanted to take? LH: 没错。那个同学特别爱，什么课都想选，可是一学期的时间只有那么多，选修课的数量是有限的。 I wish she would make up her mind!我希望她能快点作出决定。 Larry: Yea, exactly. Indecisive people can sure be annoying sometimes.especially when they cause others to w
13、aste time. LH: Larry，你说的indecisive people - 犹豫不决的人，是在说我吧？我也很想定下旅行的目的地，可是.真的是有太多好玩的地方，我实在拿不定主意! Larry: What about money? We can drive to Toronto. Thailand would be extremely expensive. Airfare alone would cost us a couple thousand dollars. We do have to live within our means, after all. LH: 你说的live w
14、ithin our means，是什么意思？ Larry: The phrase living within your means means to live within the limits of your financial situation. Or, in other words, not spending more money than you can afford to spend. LH: 哦，to live within your means就是量入为出，不过度消费。 Larry: Thats right. And if we are to live within our m
15、eans, we certainly cannot afford a vacation in Thailand! LH: 你是说，从我们的经济情况考虑，去泰国花销太高，我们承受不了？可是你工作这么久，不是已经攒些钱了么？ Larry: Not that much money! Im just an entry-level worker. It will take some years of saving up money before I can afford things like tropical vacations. LH: 啊？还得再攒好几年才能来个热带风情之旅？唉，Larry, 这只能怪你平时不知节省。你看，你老去外面饭馆吃饭，比在家里吃贵多了! Larry: So. if I were living within my means, wed have enough money for a nice vacation? LH: 对啊!如果你平时消费节制，我们现在就能去泰国了! Larry: But, Lihua, I just dont
