今天的這段對(duì)話，在討論養(yǎng)狗，
 
聊一聊你家養(yǎng)的狗，在日本養(yǎng)狗需要花費(fèi)多少錢
 
來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:
 
A: OK, Richard!
 
理查德！
 
B: Hi, Todd. Good to see you.
 
你好，托德。見(jiàn)到你很高興。
 
A: Good to see you.
 
見(jiàn)到你我也很高興。
 
B: Long time no see.
 
好久不見(jiàn)了。
 
A: Yeah, it's been awhile.
 
對(duì)啊，有一段時(shí)間沒(méi)見(jiàn)了。
 
B: It's been awhile.
 
確實(shí)有段時(shí)間了。
 
A: Richard, you helped me out when I first started the website.
 
理查德，我剛開(kāi)始上網(wǎng)時(shí)你幫了我很多忙。
 
B: My pleasure.
 
這是我的榮幸。
 
A: Yeah, you're very kind and you talked about your dog!
 
嗯，你人真好，你還談到了你的狗！
 
B: Lucky! Here he is! This is Lucky's picture.
 
它叫好運(yùn)！這就是它！這是“好運(yùn)”的照片。
 
A: Wow! That's big. So tell us about Lucky. How's lucky been the last two years?
 
哇！好大的狗啊。跟我們說(shuō)說(shuō)“好運(yùn)”吧。這兩年它過(guò)得怎么樣？
 
B: Lucky, the last two year! Yeah! Lucky is almost two years old. His birthday is November the 11th! One-One-One-One, so he'll be 2 years old. He's doing well. He's developed some unique, sort of characteristics, personality traits. One is that late at night he doesn't like walking just with me, it has to be with me and my wife together. So he has two big bodyguards. It's true. It's an unusual thing but he will not walk by the river where it's very dark with just one person. He needs two people to walk him. Which is unusual for a dog. He's a golden retriever so he's a big dog, but he's just, he needs two people and he gets very lonely, you know he likes to follow people around the house the whole time, you know he's a really, he's a very sort of sociable dog.
 
“好運(yùn)”的這兩年！嗯！“好運(yùn)”差不多兩歲了。它的生日是11月11日！1111，所以它馬上就要兩歲了。它過(guò)得很好。它養(yǎng)成了一些奇特的性格、特征。其中一個(gè)就是深夜的時(shí)候，它不喜歡只和我散步，它一定要和我和我的妻子一起散步。這樣它就有兩個(gè)保鏢了。這是真的。這很不同尋常，不過(guò)它就是不想只和一個(gè)人在漆黑的河邊散步。它需要兩個(gè)人和它一起散步。這對(duì)狗來(lái)說(shuō)很不同尋常。它是黃金獵犬，屬于大型犬，但是它就是需要兩個(gè)人的陪伴，它會(huì)感到寂寞，你知道它在家里喜歡一直跟著人，它真的是一只善于與人交流的狗。
 
A: What a lovely dog!
 
多可愛(ài)的狗啊！
 
B: Yes, lovely dog!
 
對(duì)，非常可愛(ài)！
 
A: I want to meet him!
 
我想見(jiàn)見(jiàn)它！
 
B: Yeah, well, anytime!
 
嗯，當(dāng)然，隨時(shí)可以！
 
A: So, I think you were saying something earlier about how he gets cold.
 
我記得你之前說(shuō)過(guò)它怕冷的事情。
 
B: Yeah, that's the other thing. One of the other unique things about Lucky is that I think he's a bit spoiled. I mean, you know, a lot of dogs live outdoors but this dog lives indoors, and you know the kotatsu, in the winter my obaachan, my wife's mother has the kotatsu.
 
對(duì)，那是它另一個(gè)與眾不同的地方。“好運(yùn)”另一件奇特的事情就是，我認(rèn)為它被寵壞了。我的意思是，你知道的，有許多狗都生活在室外，但是它生活在室內(nèi)，你知道冬天的時(shí)候，我岳母家會(huì)用暖桌。
 
A: Yeah, like the kotatsu is like a big blanket.
 
嗯，暖桌就像大毛毯一樣。
 
B: Ah, yeah, like a little low table.
 
嗯，對(duì)，是一張矮桌子。
 
A: Oh, the kotatsu, oh, yeah, yeah, sorry.
 
哦，暖桌，抱歉。
 
B: An electric heater underneath it.
 
桌子下面有電暖器。
 
A: Yeah, that's right, sorry!
 
對(duì)，是這個(gè)，我很抱歉！
 
B: And cat in Japan, cats are famous for going under the kotatsu in winter but my dog goes under the Kotatsu, so and he's quite big right, so you just see his legs poking out of the kotatsu. I mean that's a very unusual behavior for a golden retriever. Yeah, yeah, he's an unusual dog.
 
在日本，貓?jiān)诙斓臅r(shí)候會(huì)待在暖桌下面，但是我的狗卻也會(huì)待在暖桌下面，而因?yàn)樗罅耍阅銜?huì)看到它的腿伸出暖桌，我是說(shuō)這對(duì)黃金獵犬來(lái)說(shuō)是很反常的行為。對(duì)，它是只不同尋常的狗。
 
A: So how much does he eat?
 
那它吃多少東西呢？
 
B: I see, what about my son. I want to talk about my son.
 
我想想啊，大概和我兒子差不多。我想談?wù)勎覂鹤印?br />  
A: Well, no but like, first I'm just curious, how much does you dog eat?
 
嗯，先不談那個(gè)，我只是好奇你的狗到底吃多少東西？
 
B: How much does he eat? Well, it's three times a day.
 
它吃多少東西？嗯，一天吃三頓飯。
 
A: Yeah, I mean, how much does it cost?
 
嗯，我是說(shuō)，它的食物要花費(fèi)多少錢？
 
B: Oh, the cost!
 
哦，花費(fèi)！
 
A: Yeah, to feed a dog in Japan!
 
對(duì)，在日本養(yǎng)狗的費(fèi)用！
 
B: Well, that's a good, that's a tough question. I buy a big bag of food. It costs me 18,000 yen and that lasts about three months, so about 6,000 yen.
 
嗯，這是一個(gè)很好的問(wèn)題，但是也很難。我會(huì)買一大包食物，價(jià)格為1.8萬(wàn)日元，大概可以吃三個(gè)月，所以一個(gè)月6000日元左右。
 
A: Man, that is expensive! So you're dog, that's at least 6,000 yen a month on food.
 
嘿，這太貴了！一只狗一個(gè)月的狗糧就要花費(fèi)6000日元。
 
B: And then Vet's bills are pretty high.
 
而且獸醫(yī)的費(fèi)用非常昂貴。
 
A: Wow! But he's worth it! It seems like you love your dog.
 
哇！不過(guò)它值得！看起來(lái)你非常愛(ài)你的狗。
 
B: I love my dog. I carry his picture everywhere.
 
我很愛(ài)我的狗。我去任何地方都會(huì)帶著它的照片。
 
A: That's my favorite dog too! Golden Retrievers. They're so kind.
 
這也是我最喜歡的狗！黃金獵犬。它們非常友善。
 
B: I also love my son! Can I talk about my son!
 
我也很愛(ài)我的兒子！我能談?wù)勎覂鹤訂幔?br />  
A: OK, we'll do your son in the next interview.
 
好，我們?cè)谙麓卧L問(wèn)中再談你的兒子。
