思路 1

Yes - Spending a Lot of Money
是的 - 花费大量金钱
考官答案
I think it definitely helps. It's good to treat ourselves sometimes, but it can cost a lot. If we want to travel somewhere easy and relaxing, going in luxury is great. Everything is taken care of, so we don't have to worry about anything and can just focus on ourselves.
我认为这肯定有帮助。偶尔犒赏自己是件好事,但这可能需要花一些真正的钱。如果我们想换个环境,去一个无忧无虑的地方旅行,那么豪华旅行就是放松的完美方式。我们不需要担心任何事情,因为一切都有人照顾,这意味着我们可以只专注于自己。

思路 3

It Depends - Varies by Individual
视情况而定 - 因人而异
考官答案
I suppose it depends on what people like to do. Everyone relaxes differently, and what works for one person might not for another. But it's important to put mental well-being first, even over the cost. If extravagant holidays are what someone needs to relax, then they should try to do it when they can.
我想这取决于人们喜欢做什么。每个人放松的方式都不同,对一个人有效的方法可能对另一个人无效。但重要的是把精神健康放在首位,即使是在成本方面。如果奢侈的假期是某人放松所需的,那么他们应该尽可能地尝试这样做。
I suppose it depends on what you people like to do. Everyone relaxes in different ways and what is good for one person may not work for another. I think it’s key though that people prioritize their mental well-being over the cost of whatever it is that helps them. If going on extravagant holidays is what works for someone, then they should try and do this when they can.
我认为这取决于人们喜欢做什么。每个人的放松方式都不同,对一个人有效的方法可能对另一个人不起作用。我认为关键的是,人们优先考虑自己的心理健康,而不是任何对他们有帮助的东西的成本。如果奢侈的假期是对某人有效的放松方式,那么他们应该在有条件时尝试这样做。
