又是夏天了，辦公室里的空調(diào)又要開(kāi)始啟動(dòng)了。有人喜歡溫度低一點(diǎn)，有人喜歡溫度高一點(diǎn)。且看下面這兩位是怎么看的吧。

莉斯：老天！你這屋簡(jiǎn)直是冰箱??！

Terri: No, it's not! It's just comfortable.
特里：不是啊，剛剛好。

Liz: Yeah, if you're a penguin. Just look at me! Even my goose bumps have goose bumps!
莉斯：剛剛好，如果你是企鵝的話?？纯次?，我都起雞皮疙瘩了！

Terri: Get outta here! I think you're exaggerating!
特里：快出去，你太夸張了！

Liz: No, I'm not. Where's the thermostat?
莉斯：我才沒(méi)有呢。溫度調(diào)節(jié)器在哪呢？

Terri: By the door, on the wall.
特里：門(mén)旁邊，墻上。

Liz: No wonder I'm cold! This thing is set at 65?!
莉斯：怪不得我冷。你把它調(diào)到65度？！

Terri: Like I said -- perfect!
特里：就像我說(shuō)的，正好！

Liz: If you live in Alaska. By the way, where's the shovel?
莉斯：如果你住在阿拉斯加才正好。哎，鏟子在哪？

Terri: Why do you need a shovel?

約翰：開(kāi)玩笑。這屋里至少95度！

Martha: What can I say? I'm a cold-blooded person. The warmer, the better, as far as I'm concerned.
瑪撒：那我能說(shuō)什么呢？我是個(gè)冷血的人。對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)越熱越好。

John: Well, can we at least open a window and get some ventilation in here?
約翰：那么，我們至少得開(kāi)扇窗戶透透氣吧？
