Having been married a long time， my husband sometimes needs a gentle reminder①of a special occasion. On the morning of our 35th anniversary②， we were sitting at the breakfast table when I hinted③， “Honey， do you realize that we’ve been sitting in these same two seats for exactly 35 years？”
Putting down the newspaper， he looked straight at me and said， “So， you want to switch④seats？”
① remindern. 提醒
② anniversaryn. 周年纪念
③ hintv. 暗示
④ switchv. 改变
委婉提醒
婚后已久，我丈夫往往在一个特别事情上需要委婉的提醒。在我们结婚35周年纪念的早上，我们正坐在早餐桌旁，我暗示道：“亲爱的，你意识到我们在这两个相同的座位上已坐了整整35年了吗？”
他放下报纸，眼睛直直地望着我说：“因此，你想交换座位吗？”
