A:Mama, shall I put all of the old things in the box?妈妈,这些旧东西都放到这盒子里吗?
B:Not all things are useful. It's up to you. If you think it isn't of much use, you may throw them out.有些东西已经没用了。你决定吧,如果觉得没多大用,就扔了吧。
A: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.好吧,但是对我来说好像很难。好多东西都让我回想起我的童年,我舍不得扔它们。
B:Come on. Go ahead, little girl. Be off with the old, on with the new.好了,扔吧,小女孩儿。旧的不去,新的不来。
A:Do as you like. Keep something that has memory for you and something decorates out new house.想怎么做就怎么做,留下些让你回忆的和可以装饰我们新家的东西。
B: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.噢,我的天哪。妈妈,这不公平。阿美的活儿只是整理书柜,但是我得清理所有这些脏东西。我们很久都没用这些东西了,真是太脏了。
A:Yes, you are a superman, so we arrange something that is just suitable for a man like you.是啊,你是超人,所以我们安排你做些适合你这样的男子汉做的事情。
B:There are so many things to do! It's a pity that I can't be in two places at once.那事情也太多了吧!真可惜我不会分身。
A: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.不要紧。你快点做,要不我们在两天内就搬不完了。但是如果有个钟点工来擦玻璃就好多了。
B:A maid? And clean the glass of a high building? Isn't the Spiderman?钟点工?擦高楼的玻璃?那不是蜘蛛侠吗?
A: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.蜘蛛侠擦的是外面的玻璃,我们只要擦里面的玻璃就行了。好了,我告诉过你我占了这个有阳台的房间了。
B:Oh, come on. Nobody was there to see you call it!噢,算了吧,没人看见你占了那个房间。
A:Ur, Mom, what should I do about the old newspaper? Nobody ever read them. And some of them were older than Daniel.呃,妈妈,我们怎么处理这些旧报纸呢?没人再读了,有些比丹尼尔的年纪还大。
B:Really? I'll have a look.真的?我看看。
A:You may sell them for some money, and share the money equally between you two. That would be your income for today.你们可以把它们卖钱,然后你们俩平分。那是你们今天的劳动所得。
B:Oh, Mom, it's mean of you to allow us with little money.噢,妈妈,就给那么点儿钱啊,你太吝啬了。
