William:
The company wants to renew my contract.
公司要跟我续约。
Laura:
That's great. Aren't you glad?
太好了。你不高兴吗?
William:
Yes, but, unless I can get a 20% raise, I don't think I am interested in renewing it.
高兴,不过除非能加薪20%,否则我没兴趣续约。
Laura:
I'm sure they will give you a 20% raise, at least. You deserve it.
我确信他们至少会为你加薪20%。这是你该得的。
