英文原文:

Looking at an apartment in Mucha, talking to the landlord
LL: This is a very spacious apartment. It's forty pings, including the parking space. That's about one thousand four hundred square feet.
Beth: Wow. It's just the two of us. I don't know if we need that much room.
LL: You never know when two might turn into three.
Beth:I guess you're right. And we'd like to have company anyway.
LL: Exactly, which is why a three-bedroom is better. And look, there are two bathrooms.
Beth: Now that's a plus!
