Ruth: Sure.

魯斯：沒問題。

Akane: So who is the funniest person in your family?

茜：你家里誰是最有意思的人?

Ruth: The funniest person! Probably my mom actually. She's really funny. She's got a really good sense of humor, and she plays tricks on people, and she's really silly but everybody in my family has a good sense of humor.

魯斯：最有意思的人!那可能是我媽媽。她非常有趣。她有很強的幽默感，她還會捉弄別人，她經(jīng)常做些傻事，不過我們家所有人都有很強的幽默感。

Akane: Oh, good. Now who is the most serious person in your family?

茜：哦，真好。那你家里最嚴肅的人是誰?

Ruth: Serious. Do you know, actually, I don't think anybody in my family is serious.

魯斯：嚴肅。你知道嗎，事實上我認為我家里的人都不嚴肅。

Akane: Oh, really.

茜：哦，真的嗎?

Ruth: I don't think we have any very serious members.

魯斯：我想我們家沒有非常嚴肅的人。

Akane: Do you think that's a good thing or a bad thing?

茜：你覺得那是件好事還是壞事?

Ruth: I think it's a good thing although occasionally, I think it's a bad thing.

魯斯：我覺得是好事，雖然有時這可能也是壞事。

Akane: Right! Now who is the hardest worker?

茜：沒錯!那誰是最努力工作的人?

Ruth: Oh, can I say me?

魯斯：哦，我可以說是我自己嗎?

Akane: Sure.

茜：當然可以。

Ruth: No, I don't think that's true actually. Well, both of my parents work very hard, and they both have very different jobs, but they both work very hard and always have done.

魯斯：實際上并不是這樣。我父母也很努力工作，他們的工作不同，但是他們都很努力地工作，而且工作完成得很好。

Akane: Well, parents do tend to be hardworking.

茜：好，父母一般都工作很認真。

Ruth: That's true, yeah!

魯斯：沒錯，是的!

Akane: And who is the most generous person in your whole family?

茜：那誰是你們家最大方的人?

Ruth: My brother is really generous and he makes me feel bad because he's so generous in buying me things and giving me things, and I would say my brother.

魯斯：我哥哥真的很大方，他讓我覺得很過意不去，因為他非常大方，總是給我買東西還有送我東西，所以最大方的人是我哥哥。

Akane: Really, what's the last thing he bought you.

茜：真的嗎?那上次他給你買什么了?

Ruth: Ah, that's a good question. He bought me some clothes actually before I came to Japan.

魯斯：啊，這是個好問題。在我來日本之前他給我買了些衣服。

Akane: And who do you talk with the most in your family?

茜：那你在家里和誰聊的最多?

Ruth: All of them really, but I suppose deep down I maybe talk to my mom the most. I tell her most things.

魯斯：所有的家人，不過我想在我內(nèi)心深處我認為和我媽媽聊的最多。我會把大部分事情都告訴她。

Akane: Really! What kind of things do you tell her?

茜：真的嗎?那你一般都跟她說什么事?

Ruth: Just everything that's going off in my life, really, because she's a really good friend to me so, I'm just very open with her, and she's open with me.

魯斯：就是在我生活中發(fā)生的所有事，因為她對我來說是非常好的朋友，我和她無話不談，她和我也是無話不談。

Akane: That's excellent. Who do you resemble the most in your family?

茜：那太好了。你和家里的哪個人最像?

Ruth: Some people say I look like me mom and some people say I look like my dad but most people say I look like my brother, so maybe my brother.

魯斯：有些人說我長得像媽媽，也有些人說我長得像爸爸，不過大部分人都認為我和我哥哥最像，所以可能是我哥哥吧。

Akane: Your brother.

茜：你哥哥。

Ruth: Yeah.

魯斯：對。

Akane: Do you have a picture of him?

茜：你有他的照片嗎?

Ruth: I do have one, yes. I'll show you later.
