Jessica: OK, my mother and father. Let's see. My mom is three years older than my dad, and they are like night and day. My mom is 5 foot 4, on a good day, 5 foot 2, I think in real life, and she is very sweet and very nice, and very caring, and very cute, everybody tells her how young she looks, and how she resembles my sister, perhaps. My father is very much completely opposite that. He is a very big man, very loud, very funny, very boisterous. He makes friends no matter where he goes. For example, sometimes he goes to Florida and makes all sorts of good friends. He'll just go off. He's kind of a magnet to people, and so my parents are completely opposite, and they complement each other very well. My dad has a very good sense of humor. My mom is very gentle. Very nice. 好的,我的父母。我的母親比我父親大三歲,他們十分不同,就像白天和黑夜的區(qū)別一樣。我母親高5.4英尺,但我認(rèn)為她的真實(shí)身高只有5.2英尺。她很親切,和藹,很會(huì)照顧人。她很可愛(ài),所有人都跟她說(shuō)她看上去很年輕,和我像姐妹花一樣。我的父親是完全相反的一個(gè)人。他個(gè)子很大,大嗓門(mén),風(fēng)趣,愛(ài)說(shuō)話(huà)。他走到哪里都能交到朋友。例如,又一次他去了弗羅里達(dá)州就交到了各種各樣的好朋友。他就是簡(jiǎn)單地去了,仿佛他對(duì)人有磁力一樣。因此我的父母是完全相反的兩個(gè)人,他們互補(bǔ)得很好。我父親很幽默,我母親溫柔和善。
Todd: When is the last time you talked to you parents? 你上次和你父母談話(huà)時(shí)什么時(shí)候?
Jessica: I talked to them probably about two weeks ago. Yeah, everything is going well. 我上次和他們談話(huà)是兩周前。一切都進(jìn)行得很順利。
Todd: Are you going to see them soon? 你最近會(huì)去看他們嗎?
Jessica: I am going to go home after the holidays and we're going to have a Christmas kind of in January or February. Yeah, depending on when my brother can come in. 假期過(guò)后我會(huì)回家,我們會(huì)在一月或是二月再聚在一起慶祝圣誕節(jié),具體要看我的兄弟什么時(shí)候回來(lái)。
Todd: OK. And who are you more like, your mother or your father? 好的。你的父母,你更喜歡誰(shuí)?
Jessica: I think I have traits of both, actually. I look more like my mother, except that I am about a foot taller. Yeah, I resemble my mom more. I think I have both of the characteristics of my mom and dad. 實(shí)際上,兩個(gè)我都喜歡。我長(zhǎng)得很像我母親,雖然我比她高1英尺。是的,我像我母親。但我兼有父母兩個(gè)人的性格特征。
Todd: OK. Great. Thanks. 好的,謝謝。
