1--It’s freezing in here! Can I turn up the heat?

1--Dad! Are you serious? What’s the point of having central heating if we can’t use it! Look, I can see my breath!
2--Put on a sweater! I’m not gonna let you run up my heating bill just because it’s a bit chilly.
1--Dad! I’m gonna catch a cold!
2--When I was your age, my parents didn’t have central heating like you do! We had a furnace in the center of the living room and that was it. We used it to cook, heat the house and even dry our clothes! We never caught a cold. You should be grateful!

2--穿件毛衣。我不会仅仅因为有点冷而增加我们的取暖花费。
1--爸爸，我会感冒的。
2--当我是你这个年龄时，我父母并没有这样的中央取暖系统。仅在起居室里有个火炉。我们用她来做饭，取暖，甚至来烘烤衣服。我们从未感冒过。你应该心存感激。
