A：A bunch of us in the office are planning a retiring party for Bob, he's been with the office for ages, so everyone was really suprised to hear he took early retirement.

我们办公室的这些人计划为鲍勃开个退休晚会. 他在公司干了那么多年,所以大家听说他提前退休真的很吃惊.

B：Bob is retiring, wow...that's news to me, I had no idea Bob was that old, retirement's still sixty-five, right?

鲍勃要退休吗? 哇,这可是个新闻...我根本不知道他有那么大年纪.还是65岁退休,对吧?

A：Retirement age is still 65, but I think more and more people are retiring earlier, I think Bob's in upper fifties already, he just looks pretty young.

退休年龄还是65岁,但我认为越来越多的人提前退休.我想鲍勃已经超过55岁了,他只是看着年轻.

B：Wow...I thought he was early forty stops, why would he want to retire so soon?

哇,我一直以为他最多40出头.他为什么那么早退休?

A：Well, I think you prepare it well and capture good savings, retiring early can give you a lot more time for travel and other activities, you should get out and enjoy the life you still can't, don't you think?

唉,我想如果你已经做好准备而且有一小笔的存款,提前退休可以使你有更充裕的时间去旅行或者干其他事情.你应该在自己精力还旺盛的时候就去退休享受生活,你不觉得吗?
