Neil: And I said Japan.
我选的是日本。
Sophie: This is the wrong answer, I'm afraid. It's actually c) Sweden. Nearly half of all Swedish households are single-occupancy – or for one person. Living alone in Sweden is arguably the norm because it's so easy – there are many affordable single-occupancy apartments and young Swedes can expect to move into their own apartment once they graduate high-school.
恐怕你回答错了。正确答案是c) 瑞典。几乎一半的瑞典人都是独居。在瑞典独居像是惯例,因为独居太容易了,很多人都能买得起的单身公寓。年轻的瑞典人高中毕业后就能搬到自己的公寓。
Neil: OK, now let's hear the words we learned today again, Sophie.
