| Oh, next week is my husband's 30th birthday. I'm thinking about what to give him. |

| Then why don't you give him something electronic? All men love those things. |

| That's right, my husband loves photography. He's used his SLR camera for so many years. This is a great time to buy him a new one. |

| You should get your husband one, too. If we buy them together, we can get them a bit cheaper. |
| A: | 算了。太贵了，我买条牛仔裤意思意思就行了。 |
| suànle. tài guì le, wǒ mǎi tiáo niúzǎikù yìsi yìsi jiù xíng le. |
| Forget it, it's too expensive. I'll just buy him a pair of jeans to show him I remembered. |
