这可不能怪我啊!我再会赚钱也赶不上猛涨的房价呀!不过还好,政府已经有了政策,今年房价有可能会回落。我今年再存一年的话,应该可以买了。不过悲惨的是,我又要艰苦一年了。哎,今年出来吃饭,你们两个可要自觉买单啊!
You can’t blame that on me! No matter how much money I make I still won’t be able to keep up with the soaring housing costs. But, it’s all right. The government has already instituted a new policy, so maybe this year the housing prices will go back down. If I save up for another year this year, I should be able to buy one. But the horrible thing is that I have to tough it out for another year! Hey, this year when we go out to eat, you two can handle the bill.
