我对种类繁多的保险业务很迷惑，你能详细给我介绍一下吗？
A:Of course. If you buy a term insurance policy, we'll pay the sum for which you're insured only if the policy-holder dies during the term of years stated in the policy. If you live longer, you'll get nothing.
如果买定期保险，只有当保单持有人在投保期限内死亡，我们才会支付你投保的钱；如果你活的超过了期限，那么你什么都拿不到。
B:Terrible. I won't buy this one. What are the other two?
太恐怖了，我不买这种，另外两种呢？
A:Maybe you can buy the whole-life insurance. It gives you protection for your lifetime. If you die, we will pay your heirs the sum for which you are insured if you continue to pay the premium through your life.
或许你可以买终身险。它可以报一生。如果你终身交保险，死后我们会把你投保的钱交给你的继承人。
B:I see. I'll buy the endowment policy, for it enables me to save money for my own old age and provide money for my husband if I die.
我明白了，我要买养老保险，因为它使我老年有钱花，我死后，我丈夫也会有钱花。
