603　Live longer 比较长寿

A couple of hours into a visit with my mother she noticed I hadn't lit up a cigarette once. “Are you trying to kick the habit?” “No,” I replied, “I've got a cold and I don't smoke when I'm not feeling well.” “You know,” she observed, “you'd probably live longer if you were sick more often.”

我去看我妈妈的时候，她注意到我在两个小时之内没有吸烟。她问我：“你是不是准备要戒掉这个习惯？”我回答说：“不是。我得了感冒。我觉得不太舒服的时候就不吸烟。”她说：“看来，你如果生病多一些，可能会活得长一些。”
