5. 多活几年。Stay alive
My sister, a doctor, told me about one of her patients, a 92-year-old woman who showed up for her appointment with her husband, who is 94. They said they have been married for almost 70 years.
我姐姐是个医生。她对我讲起自己一个病人的故事。那是位92岁高龄的女士,她每次来看病的时候,94岁的丈夫都陪着她一起来。这对高龄夫妇已经结婚将近70年。
My sister, highly impressed, asked the couple the secret to their union's longevity. And they looked at each other for a long moment. Then the wife spoke: 'Eh, neither of us died.'
我姐姐很是惊讶,问那对夫妻婚姻如此长久的秘诀。他们彼此对望了许久,然后那个妻子说话了:“呃,因为我们俩都还没死。”
