丹尼爾在和媽媽、阿美一起收拾房間,丹尼爾覺得只有自己的活兒又髒又累,看看他們在談論些什麼吧。
Listen Read Learn
May: Mama, shall I put all of the old things in the box?
Mom: Not all things are useful. It's up to you. If you think it isn't of much use, you may throw them out.
May: OK, but it seems it's not easy for me. Many of them remind me of my childhood. I feel myself unable to throw them away.
Daniel: Come on. Go ahead, little girl. Be off with the old, on with the new.
Mom: Do as you like. Keep something that has memory for you and something decorates out new house.
(a short while)
Daniel: Oh, my God. It's unfair, Mom. May's job is just to tidy up the bookcase but I must clean up all the dirty things. We haven't used them for so long time. They are so dirty.
Mom: Yes, you are a superman, so we arrange something that is just suitable for a man like you.
Daniel: There are so many things to do! It's a pity that I can't be in two places at once.
May: Never mind. You may want to do it faster or we will not be able to finish the moving in two days. But if we had a maid to clean the windows, it would be much better.
Daniel: A maid? And clean the glass of a high building? Isn't the Spiderman?
May: Spiderman works on the glass outside, and we just have to clean them from the inside. That's OK. And I told you I had called this room with the balcony.
Daniel: Oh, come on. Nobody was there to see you call it!
May: Ur, Mom, what should I do about the old newspaper? Nobody ever read them. And some of them were older than Daniel.
Daniel: Really? I'll have a look.
Mom: You may sell them for some money, and share the money equally between you two. That would be your income for today.
Daniel: Oh, Mom, it's mean of you to allow us with little money.
聽看學
阿美:媽媽,這些舊東西都放到這盒子裏嗎?
媽媽:有些東西已經沒用了。你決定吧,如果覺得沒多大用,就扔了吧。
阿美:好吧,但是對我來説好像很難。好多東西都讓我回想起我的童年,我捨不得扔它們。
丹尼爾:好了,扔吧,小女孩兒。舊的不去,新的不來。
媽媽:想怎麼做就怎麼做,留下些讓你回憶的和可以裝飾我們新家的東西。
(過了一小會兒)
丹尼爾:噢,我的天哪。媽媽,這不公平。阿美的活兒只是整理書櫃,但是我得清理所有這些髒東西。我們很久都沒用這些東西了,真是太髒了。
媽媽:是啊,你是超人,所以我們安排你做些適合你這樣的男子漢做的事情。
丹尼爾:那事情也太多了吧!真可惜我不會分身。
阿美:不要緊。你快點做,要不我們在兩天內就搬不完了。但是如果有個鐘點工來擦玻璃就好多了。
丹尼爾:鐘點工?擦高樓的玻璃?那不是蜘蛛俠嗎?
阿美:蜘蛛俠擦的是外面的玻璃,我們只要擦裏面的玻璃就行了。好了,我告訴過你我佔了這個有陽台的房間了。
丹尼爾:噢,算了吧,沒人看見你佔了那個房間。
阿美:呃,媽媽,我們怎麼處理這些舊報紙呢?沒人再讀了,有些比丹尼爾的年紀還大。
丹尼爾:真的?我看看。
媽媽:你們可以把它們賣錢,然後你們倆平分。那是你們今天的勞動所得。
丹尼爾:噢,媽媽,就給那麼點兒錢啊,你太吝嗇了。
