    Anne: Where are you going with that? 
    安妮:你要把那个弄到哪儿?
    Ivan: I’m taking this clock to an antique dealer. Rather than having it gather dust on the mantelpiece, I thought I’d get it appraised and maybe sell it. 
    伊万:我要拿着这个钟表到古玩商那儿,而不是让它放在壁炉台上落满灰尘。我会让人估价,也许会卖掉。
    Anne: You can’t sell that! It belonged to our grandfather. It’s a family heirloom
    安妮:你不能卖掉那个钟表!这是我们爷爷的东西,是个传家宝。
    Ivan: It’s not a family heirloom. It’s just a clock that Grandpa had in his house. He didn’t mean for it to be passed down from one generation to another. I don’t even know if it’s valuable or collectable. These clocks could be a dime a dozen
    伊万:它不是传家宝,只不过是爷爷家里的一个钟表而已。他没有说要让这个表一代一代的传下去。我都不知道它是否有价值或者能够收藏。这样的表多的是,不值钱。
    Anne: But it’s valuable to me. It has sentimental value. As a little girl, I remember visiting Grandpa and seeing that clock on his shelf. If I had inherited it, I know I wouldn’t be looking to sell it to make a quick buck.
    安妮:但是对我来说很有价值,有情感价值。我还是小女孩儿时,我记得探望爷爷,看到这个表在他架子上放着。如果我能继承这个表,我不会为了赚一笔钱就卖掉它。
    Ivan: I’m not looking to make a quick buck, but what if Grandpa left it to me because he knew I would be able to put the money that it would fetch to good use
    伊万:我不是想用来赚一笔钱,但是倘若爷爷知道我能把钱用在正确的地方,所以把它留给我呢?
    Anne: Well, are you? Are you going to put the proceeds to good use? 
    安妮:好吧,你是那样的吗?你打算把钱善加利用?
    Ivan: Sure, of course I am. 
    伊万:当然。
    Anne: Are you going to tell me what you’re spending it on? 
    安妮:你能告诉我你打算把钱花在哪儿吗?
    Ivan: Not on your life
    伊万:绝对不行!

    Anne: Where are you going with that? 

    Ivan: I’m taking this clock to an antique dealer. Rather than having it gather dust on the mantelpiece, I thought I’d get it appraised and maybe sell it. 

    Anne: You can’t sell that! It belonged to our grandfather. It’s a family heirloom

    Ivan: It’s not a family heirloom. It’s just a clock that Grandpa had in his house. He didn’t mean for it to be passed down from one generation to another. I don’t even know if it’s valuable or collectable. These clocks could be a dime a dozen

    Anne: But it’s valuable to me. It has sentimental value. As a little girl, I remember visiting Grandpa and seeing that clock on his shelf. If I had inherited it, I know I wouldn’t be looking to sell it to make a quick buck.

    Ivan: I’m not looking to make a quick buck, but what if Grandpa left it to me because he knew I would be able to put the money that it would fetch to good use

    Anne: Well, are you? Are you going to put the proceeds to good use? 

    Ivan: Sure, of course I am. 

    Anne: Are you going to tell me what you’re spending it on? 

    Ivan: Not on your life
