问题                     Financially Strapped! Fiance Is Broke’n Hearted Over Engagement
Dear Harlan,
     I’ve been with my girlfriend off and on for about five years. Last summer, I took the leap and bought her "the ring". Now I’m not sure if I’m in this relationship for the right reasons. I seem to be in this relationship mainly because I have more than $ 5,000 invested in us. I don’t know if I’m truly still in love with this girl. Should I stick it out and hope it gets better? What do I do?

Dear Cashless in College,
     If you can’t separate the price tag from the fiancee, your engagement is worthless. A ring is a symbol of love and commitment, not debt and burden. She deserves more — not more carats, more honesty. Take a break if you’re this confused. Save her the time and trauma of a future divorce. Why you haven’t talked to her about this situation is a whole other problem.
    Sadly, engagements get broken. Even sadder, marriages get broken. And a broken marriage is far more expensive — financially and emotionally.
Harlan
What is the advice that Harlan has given the heart broken fiance?

选项 A、He should not have made the engagement.
B、He should not have bought the diamond ring.
C、He should have talked the matter over with her.
D、He should stop the worthless engagement now.

答案D

解析 根据提问,Harlan的建议不会是用虚拟语气来埋怨过去不该做的而做了的事情,而是现在别做的事情或者应该怎么做。选项A和B几乎是同一意义的。选项C是——个可能的选择,但是Harlan说得很明白,与她谈不谈是另一件事:Why you haven’t talked to her about this situation is a whole other problem.所以,他的建议是Take a break if you’re this confused. Save her the time and trau
