记得《蜗居》里面海萍有段台词，说的是每天一睁眼就想着要还多少房贷、孩子上学要多少钱，电话费要交多少… 好像我们每天上班就是为了还债，哪儿还有心思出去游山玩水，享受生活啊。我们今天要说的，就是这类家庭的英文名字，NETTEL。[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ /{oEv-!L+=D.n0 FroG]

Here are two parents working full-time earning lots of money but struggling to balance the commitments that come with a demanding job and an even more demanding family life. In many families it's a case of got enough money but hasn’t got enough time to enjoy life.
