难度系数:GESE3,PETS1
Dad: Daniel, have you finished your homework?
Daniel: Not yet, Dad. I am watching Ultraman instead.
(Father gets angry and turns off the TV.)
Daniel: No, no, Dad. Please. This program is on only once a week.
Dad: Daniel, as a matter of fact, TV is bad for your health.
Daniel: What makes you think that?
Dad: It's full of violence and you are so young.
Daniel: But there are cartoons on TV. Bees, big trees, seas, and a lot of other interesting things.
Dad: Wait. What's the time, honey?
Daniel: About 6:00.
Dad: It's homework time now. Go and do your homework and then go to bed.
(Father turns on the TV)
Dad: (murmur)American Idol, There you go.
Daniel: Dad, it's not fair. I am so disappointed with you!
爸爸:丹尼尔,你完成作业了吗?
丹尼尔:还没呢,爸爸。我正在看《奥特曼》。
(父亲生气了,把电视关了。)
丹尼尔:不,爸爸,求求您了。这个节目一个星期才放一次的。
爸爸:丹尼尔,事实上,电视不利于你的健康。
丹尼尔:您怎么会这样想呢?
爸爸:电视上充满着暴力行为,而你太小了。
丹尼尔:但是电视上还有卡通片啊。蜜蜂,大树,大海,还有其他很多有趣的东西。
爸爸:等等。现在几点了,亲爱的?
丹尼尔:大概6:00了。
爸爸:现在是家庭作业时间。去做作业,然后上床睡觉。
(爸爸打开了电视)
爸爸:(自言自语)《美国偶像》来了!
丹尼尔:爸爸,不公平。我对你太失望了!
