A: So what are your parents like?
B: They’re cool, I guess. My mom is really energetic; she goes for a run every morning, and she often goes cycling on weekends. My dad, on the other hand, rarely does any exercise. He enjoys reading and cooking—kinda nerdy, I suppose.
A: They sound like interesting people. My parents are totally boring: they never do anything or go anywhere. My dad is really strict. He gets all uptight whenever a boy calls me. And my mom never stops nagging.
B: That’s horrible! So should I stop calling you from now on?
A: Don’t be daft! Call me anytime you want.
B: You are such a rebel!
A: It takes one to know one. I guess that’s why we are such good friends.
B: You’re completely right about that!

A:那你的父母是怎麼樣的人?
B:他們挺酷的吧。我媽非常有活力,每天早上都去跑步,週末經常騎腳踏車。我爸呢,則很少做運動。他喜歡閱讀和做飯——算是有點書呆子吧,我想。
A:聽起來他們很有趣啊。我父母則完全無聊:他們什麼都不做,也不去任何地方。我爸很嚴格,每次有男生打電話給我,他都會變得很緊張。而我媽則總是嘮叨個不停。
B:那真糟糕!那我從現在開始該停止打電話給你嗎?
A:別傻了!隨時想打電話就打。
B:你真是個叛逆者!
A:要懂得叛逆,得先是叛逆者。我想這就是為什麼我們是那麼好的朋友。
B:你說得完全對!
