60. Weekend Activities
周末活动
My father is a driver and my mother is a teacher. Both of them work hard during the week. No matter how busy they are, they always manage to take us to our uncle's home at the weekend and work on their farm.
我爸爸是个司机,妈妈是老师,平时他们都很努力工作。无论他们多么忙,周末他们总设法带我们去叔叔家,和他们一起去田里干活。
The farm is not very big, but there is always so much to do on a farm. I like to look after the animals, taking them to the field, giving them food, and playing with them.
他们的农场并不大,可是总有许多活要做。我喜欢照看动物:带它们到地里转转,给它们喂食,与它们玩耍。
My parents help my uncle in the field, while my aunt prepares dinner for us. Sometimes I help in the field, too. It is on the farm that I get to know the meaning of the saying, "A grain, a sweat." After several hours' hard work, we are all hungry and tired. We usually have a big meal, and then go back home in the evening.
我父母帮助叔叔干田里的活,我婶婶在家做饭。有时我也去地里干活。就是在农场我才理解“一滴汗水,一分收获”这句话的意义。几小时的劳动使我们又饿又累,我们通常都要大吃一顿,晚上返回家。
