I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.

　　生病的时候我就卧床休息，不会假装自己一天不工作，地球就会停止转动。

　　I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.

　　我要将雕成玫瑰花状的粉红蜡烛点上，而不让它在闲置中溶化。

　　I would have eaten the popcorn in the “good” living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.

　　我要在“讲究”的客厅里吃爆玉米花。倘若有人在壁炉生火带出了炉灰，我不会操那么多闲心。
