   matter with you?
2--Oh, nothing special. I'm just a bit fed up.

2--With everything, with catching 2 the same train
   every morning, sitting in the same office all
   day watching the same television programmes...
1--You need a holiday.
2--It wasn't always like this, you know.
1--How do you mean?
2--Well, our great-great-grandfathers had more
   fun, didn't they? I mean, they hunted for their
   food and grew their own vegetables and did
   things for themselves. We do the same sort of job
   for years and years. There's no variety in our
   lives.
1--You need a holiday. That's what's the matter with
   you.

1--你看起来不太高兴。出什么事儿了?
2--没什么事儿。我只是感到有些腻烦。
1--是对工作感到腻烦?
2--什么都感到腻烦。早上赶火车,整天坐办公室,晚上
看老一套电视节目。都让人感到腻烦。
1--你该休假了。
2--你瞧,早先的日子也不这样。
1--这话怎讲?
2--你看,我们的先辈们,他们过得更开心,是不?他们
自己打猎取食,自己种菜,什么都自己办。我们一年一年
地干同样的工作,生活中一点变化都没有。
1--你是该休假了。这就是你的症结所在。
