Alice: Was your life very difficult when you were a kid?
艾丽斯：你小时候生活很难吗？
Grandma: Oh, not really. Why?
奶奶：哦，不是很难。怎么了？
Alice: Well, you didn't have modern inventions like a telephone, right?
艾丽斯：噢，你们没有像电话这样的现代发明，对吗？
Grandma: Of course we did! How old do you think I am? The telephone was invented in 1876. You need to take a history class, Alice!
奶奶：我们当然有！你认为我有多老？电话是在1876年发明的。你需要上历史课了，艾丽斯！
Alice: Haha! How about cars? They weren't invented yet, were they?
艾丽斯：哈哈！那么汽车呢？它们还没有发明，对吗？
Grandma: Yes, they were. Cars were invented in 1885. My family had a car.
奶奶：不，发明了。汽车是在1885年发明的。我家里有一辆汽车。
Alice: Well, did you have a TV?
艾丽斯：好吧，你们有电视机吗？
Grandma: No, we couldn't afford one. They were expensive in those days. The TV was invented around 1927, I think.
奶奶：没有。我们买不起。它们在那个时代很贵。我想电视机是在大约1927年发明的。
Alice: Well, I know that you didn't have a computer because we learned in school that personal computers were invented in 1971.
艾丽斯：嗯，我知道你们没有电脑，因为我们在学校里学过个人电脑是在1971年发明的。
Grandma: You're right. But I have one now!
奶奶：对。但现在我有一台！
