Our son, at age of five, had a fascination for motorcycles. The sight of one would always bring forth squeals of delight, accompanied by excited remarks of "Look at that! Look at that! I’m going to have one of those someday," his dad’s response always was "Not as long as I’m alive."
我五岁的儿子对摩托车有强烈的爱好。只要看见一辆摩托车,他就会高兴得哇哇直叫,并激动地说:“瞧这辆!瞧这辆,我总有一天也要有一辆。”他爸爸的回答老是“只要我活着,你就别想有这玩艺儿。”
One day, while our son was talking to a little friend, a motorcycle passed by. He excitedly pointed it out to the boy and exclaimed, "Look at that! Look at that! I’m getting one of those as soon as my dad dies."
一天我们的儿子跟他的小朋友在说话,有一辆摩托车开了过去。他兴奋的指着摩托车叫道“瞧这辆!瞧这辆!等我爸一死我就要有这样一辆摩托车了。"
