Aiko: Hello, my name is Aiko. I'm from Japan.
爱子:大家好,我是爱子,来自日本。
Gareth: And my name is Gareth and I'm from England.
加雷斯:我是加雷斯,来自英国。
Aiko: Our question is do you like to study? How about you, Gareth?
爱子:我们要讨论的问题是,你喜欢学习吗?加雷斯,你喜欢学习吗?
Gareth: Yes, I do, not just for myself but for my son. My son often asks me questions like how do earthquakes happen, how do engines work and I feel that if I don't know the answer to his questions, I'll be a bad daddy. So it's kind of insecurity which drives me to study but I do enjoy it. I do enjoy finding out how earthquakes actually happen and why they happen and how combustion engines work. How about you, Aiko?
加雷斯:我喜欢学习,我学习不仅仅是为了我自己,也为了我儿子。我儿子经常问我问题,比如地震是怎么发生的,引擎是怎么工作的等等,如果我不能回答他的问题,那我我会认为自己不是好爸爸。所以,这种不安全感驱使我不断学习,当然我也很享受。在了解地震发生原因和引擎工作原理的过程中,我很享受。你呢,爱子?
Aiko: Yeah, I do like to study in general but then I enjoy studying English the most. The reason for that is, one, it's like my hobby so it's not like a chore really studying and also that's something I need to improve because I use English with my husband and our children and our children are only three years old and one year old but their English is improving so quickly, unbelievably quickly, so I feel like I'm falling behind and that motivates me a lot.
爱子:总的来说,我也喜欢学习,我最喜欢学习英语。原因是,这是我的兴趣,所以学习并不是令人厌烦的任务,而且我需要提高我的英语水平,因为我和丈夫还有孩子用英语交流,我们的孩子一个3岁,一个1岁,他们的英语水平进步地非常快,进步速度令人难以置信,所以我感觉自己落后了,这激发了我的动力。
Gareth: Hm, they keep you on your toes, don't they?
加雷斯:嗯,他们使你保持警觉,对吧?
Aiko: Yes.
爱子:没错。
