M:Hi,Lily, how's the new apartment?
M:嗨,莉莉,新公寓怎么样?
M:What? How can it be just okay when last week you were thrilled about the place and kept posting photos of it online?
M:怎么了?上周你还对那个地方兴奋不已,还不断在网上发照片,怎么可能只是还好呢?
W:Well, last week when I moved in, the apartment seemed cozy, just the right size for one person. But now it just seems tiny, shabby and solitary.
W:嗯,上个星期我搬进来的时候,公寓看起来很舒适,一个人住大小刚刚好。但现在它看起来又小又破又孤独
M:Ah, that's the problem. You miss your roommates from university, don't you?
M:啊,这就是问题所在。你想念你的大学室友了,是吗?
W: I'm going to sound like an idiot, because I used to complain to you all the time about how crowded our dormitory room was,
W:我会听起来像个白痴,因为我以前总是向你抱怨我们宿舍有多么拥挤,
and about all the things they did to irritate me, like watching movies late at night without headphones, or talking loudly early in the morning.
还有他们做的所有让我生气的事情,比如深夜不戴耳机看电影,或者早上大声说话。
But now I miss them terribly.
但现在我非常想念他们。
M:Of course you do. That's perfectly normal. When I got my first place I remember thinking I couldn't wait to live by myself and get away from my juvenile roommates and all their annoying habits.
M:你当然知道。这再正常不过了。当我拿到第一名的时候,我记得我在想,我迫不及待地想自己住,远离我那些未成年的室友和他们所有恼人的习惯。
But then I began missing them and feeling lonely and thinking that our dormitory was like paradise, even though there were six of us guys in one small room.
但后来我开始想念他们,感到孤独,觉得我们的宿舍就像天堂,尽管我们六个人挤在一个小房间里。
W:I thought it was just me who felt like that.
W:我以为只有我有这样的感觉。
M:Look, you lived at home with us, and then you had three roommates, and this is your first time living alone.
M:你看,你住在家里与我们,然后你有三个室友,这是你第一次独自生活。
So it's hard. But your first apartment is a milestone in your life, and you should celebrate it. Tell me about the apartment.
所以很难。但是你的第一套公寓是你人生的里程碑,你应该好好庆祝一下。告诉我公寓的情况。
W:Actually, it's not bad. In fact, it's pretty adorable, now that I have decorated it and it has everything I need.
W:其实,还不错啦。事实上,它很可爱,现在我已经装饰了它,它有我需要的一切
I have a kitchen to cook in and a bathroom all to myself, and then another room with my bed at one end, and a sofa, a small table and chairs at the other end.
我有一个做饭的厨房和一个完全属于我自己的浴室,还有另一个房间,一头是我的床,另一头是沙发、小桌子和椅子。
M: That does sound adorable and I can't wait to see it, and neither can mom and dad.
M: 这听起来确实很可爱,我迫不及待地想看到它,妈妈和爸爸也不能。
