M：You are married to a foreigner, aren't you? So what's it like?

你跟一個(gè)老外結(jié)婚了，是嗎?那樣的生活怎么樣?

F：Well, in the first year of our marriage, we had great difficulties in getting along. The things that are important to me are not important to him. We had a lot of conflicts.

嗯，我們結(jié)婚的第一年，彼此很難相處。對(duì)我來說重要的事在他看來卻不重要。我們有過很多沖突。

M：Yeah, I know what you mean. The first year of any marriage is difficult for all couples, not to mention two people from different cultures.

是，我知道你什么意思。結(jié)婚的第一年對(duì)任何夫妻來說都很難，更不用說兩個(gè)來自不同文化背景的人了。

F：Now we have a two-year-old boy. We're very happy that he's healthy and smart.

現(xiàn)在我們有了一個(gè)兩歲的男孩。我們很高興他很健康、很聰明。

M：Oh, so he's half Chinese and half American. That's unusual. What languages does he speak, then?

噢，那么他是一半中國(guó)血統(tǒng)、一半美國(guó)血統(tǒng)，很不尋常。那他講什么語言?

F：Right now he speaks mostly English, and he can say a few Chinese words. But he will learn in the future.

現(xiàn)在他主要講英文，他只會(huì)說幾個(gè)中文單字。但是日后他會(huì)學(xué)。

M：What does he look like? Can people tell?

他長(zhǎng)得怎么樣?別人看得出來嗎?

F：Yes, people surely can. He's whiter than the Chinese kids，and his hair is a little blonde. My husband says his eyes are very Chinese though.

能，別人當(dāng)然能看出來。他比其他中國(guó)小孩白，頭發(fā)有點(diǎn)金黃。但我丈夫說他的眼睛很像中國(guó)人的。
