(单词翻译:单击)

About two weeks before our fifth anniversary, my husband ased me what I would like for a gift. I told him I wanted something impractical1 and romantic.
 
On our anniversary, he presented me with a lovely gold bracelet2. "A little four-letter word made me get this for you," he said softly.
 
"Oh, how sweet," I whispered. "L-O-V-E?"
 
"No," he replied. "S-A-L-E."
 
我们结婚五周年前大约两周时,我丈夫问我喜欢什么礼物。我告诉他我要那些没有实用价值却又富于浪漫色彩的。
 
在我们的周年纪念日那天,他向我展示了一副可爱的金手镯。“一个小小的四字词,让我为你买了这个。”他温和地说。
 
“哦,多甜蜜。”我耳语他。“L-O-V-E(爱)?”
 
“不对,”他回答。“S-A-L-E.(处理品)”
