182 Every three months or 3,000 miles 每三個(gè)月或者三千英里
When I went to a store to get oil and filters, I bought my wife a bouquet of flowers. Some women in line behind me were oohing and aahing about a husband getting flowers for his wife. “How often do you do that?” one asked. Before I could answer, the checkout girl said, “Every three months or 3,000 miles—whichever comes first.”
我到商店買(mǎi)機(jī)油和濾油器,也給我妻子買(mǎi)了一束鮮花。排在我后面的幾個(gè)女人大驚小怪地談?wù)撜煞蚪o妻子買(mǎi)花的事。有一個(gè)問(wèn)我:“你隔多久買(mǎi)一次?。?rdquo;我還沒(méi)來(lái)得及回答,收款小姐就搶著說(shuō):“每三個(gè)月或者三千英里,看哪一個(gè)先到。”
