Lesson 89 For sale¶
Good afternoon. I believe that this house is for sale.
That's right.
May I have a look at it, please?
Yes, of course. Come in.
How long have you lived here?
I've lived here for twenty years.
Twenty years! That's a long time.
Yes, I've been here since 1976.
Then why do you want to sell it?
Because I've just retired. I want to buy a small house in the country.
How much does this house cost?
£68, 500.
That's a lot of money!
It's worth every penny of it.
Well, I like the house, but I can't decide yet. My wife must see it first.
Women always have the last word.
下午好。我想这幢房子是要出售的吧。

我可以看一看吗?
当然可以。请进。
您在这里住了多久?
我在这里住了20年。
20年!那可是很长时间。
是的,我从1976年起就住在这里了。
那您为什么要卖掉它呢?
因为我刚退休。我想在乡下买幢小房子。
这幢房子卖多少钱?
68,500英镑。
那可是一大笔钱!
它确确实值这么多。
嗯,我喜欢这房子,但我还不能决定。我妻子必须先来看看。
女人总是最后说了算。
