[Story] After a long day at work, I decided to take a loan to treat myself to a lively evening out. I strolled through the lobby of the hotel, where a majestic locomotive was on display, a symbol of the hotel’s lofty aspirations. I then lodged in a cozy room, where I enjoyed a hearty loaf of bread and a healthy liver dish. As I gazed out the window, I marveled at the longitude lines on the map, tracing the path of my future travels.

[参考翻译] 经过漫长的一天工作后,我决定借一笔贷款来犒劳自己一个充满活力的夜晚。我漫步在酒店大堂,那里展出了一台雄伟的火车头,象征着酒店的宏伟抱负。然后我入住了一个舒适的房间,在那里我享用了一块丰盛的面包和一道健康的肝脏菜肴。当我凝视窗外时,我对地图上的经度线感到惊奇,追溯了我未来旅行的路线。
