A：So Chris, I've heard that you're from a big family. How many people?克里斯，我听说你来自一个大家庭。有多少人?

B：Nine total. Seven children and my parents.一共9人。7个孩子和我父母。

A：Seven children? That's a lot. Why did your parents have so many?7个孩子?那很多喔。为什么你父母要这么多孩子?

B：Well, my mother came from a big family, and wanted to have one of her own. My father was an only child, and didn't really care about having a large family, but my mother talked him into it.嗯，我母亲来自一个大家庭，因而想要一个自己的大家庭。我父亲是独子，因而确实不想要一个大家庭，但我母亲说服了他。

A：Jeez, seven children. That must have a lot of problems. We have four children in my family and my grandparents can never get our names right.唉呀，7个孩子。那一定有很多问题。我家有4个孩子，我祖父母从未叫对过我们的名字。

B：It can be hard, and there are certain sacrifices you have to make.确实很难，你必须做出某些牺牲。

A：Like what? I assume that there's no privacy.什么样的?我想是没有隐私。

B：That's one. Another is the lack of personal property. Everything you have, from toys to clothes, is used by your brothers and sisters. Especially clothes. Three quarters of my wardrobe are hand-me-downs.那是一个。另外一个是没有个人财产。你所有的东西，从玩具到衣服，都被你的兄弟和姐妹用过。特别是衣服。我衣柜里四分之三的衣服都是传过来的。

A：And the age gap is also annoying. There's a ten-year difference between my younger brother and me. We have nothing in common.再者代沟也很恼人。我弟弟和我相差十岁。我们没有任何共同之处。

B：Same problem here. There's an 18-year gap between the oldest and youngest child in my family. The last child was born just as the oldest was going to college.这里也是同样的问题。在我家最大的和最小的相差18岁。最小的出生时正好最大的要上大学。
