华尔街中级英语 Lesson04

36 So it’s true, then: David and Juanita have decided to get married?
37 Yes, that’s right.
38 Aren’t you going to do anything about it?
39 What’s the problem? Why should I do anything about it?
40 Well, I think you should try to stop them!
41 Stop them? What on earth for?
42 You know perfectly well, daddy! David doesn’t really care about Juanita! He’s just after her money,  that is all!
43 I think you are probably right, yes.
44 How can you be so calm about it?
45 My dear girl, there are worse things a young men can do than marry the daughter of a multimillionaire.
46 Perhaps, when you’re a bit older, you’ll understand that.
47 So you think your son should marry a woman he doesn’t love, just so he can get his hands on her father’s money?
48 If you must put it that way, yes.
49 You’re just as bad as he is, then! All you care about is money! Money, money, money!
50 Calm down, Annie, please.
51 Anyway, we’ll have to go out now. David and Juanita and her parents are expecting us in the restaurant.
52 You can go on your own, Daddy. I can’t stand Juanita. And I really don’t feel like meeting her parents.
53 Oh, that’s a shame! Well, I must be going, then, see you this evening, dear.
54 Maybe!
