A: Are you serious? You haven't even been anywhere on vacation?
你是认真的吗？你在假期时也哪里没有去过吗？
B: No, I have never vacationed anywhere exotic. But even if I don't get a chance to travel on my personal time, at least I can travel on my company time.

如果你的飞机起飞的很早，我可以送你去机场，然后送你离开，这样我依然可以在九点到办公室。
B: That would be great. Thanks a lot.
那太好了，非常感谢。
