Like a dream come true, Father could now afford to provide his family with life’s little luxuries like nice clothing, fine food and vacation abroad.
就像梦想成真一样,爸爸现在能给家人提供有点小奢侈的生活:购置略贵的衣物,买高级食品,还能够海外旅游。
However, the family still did not get to see father for most of the week. He continued to work very hard, hoping to be promoted to the position of manager. In fact, to make himself a worthily candidate for thepromotion, he enrolled for another course in the open university.
然而,爸爸大部分时间还是不见踪影,他一如既往地努力工作,希望能够做到经理的位置,事实上,为了够格,他又开始在一所开放性大学进修另一门课程。
Again, whenever the family complained that he was not spending enough time with them, he reasoned that he was doing all this for them. But he often yearned to spend more time with his family.
与之前的场景如出一辙,每次家人抱怨爸爸陪他们的时间太少的时候,他总是解释到,他所做的一切都是为了这个家,而他也渴望多花点时间来陪他们。
Father’s hard work paid off and he was promoted. Jubilantly, he decided to hire a maid to relieve his wife from her domestic tasks. He also felt that their three-room flat was no longer big enough, it would be nice for his family to be able to enjoy the facilities and comfort of a condominium. Having experienced the rewards of his hard work many times before, Father resolved to further his studies and work at being promoted again. The family still did not get to see much of him. In fact, sometimes Father had to work on Sundays entertaining clients. Again, whenever the family complained that he was not spending enough time with them, he reasoned that he was doing all this for them. But he often yearned to spend more time with his family.
