聊一聊自己的家庭，你與家人的關(guān)系怎么樣

今天的這段對(duì)話，在討論家人，
 
聊一聊自己的家庭，與家人的關(guān)系怎么樣
 
來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:
 
A:  how many people are there in your family?
 
你們家有幾口人？
 
B:  my immediate family is quite small. It’s just my older step-brother, my mom, my step-dad and me. how about you?
 
我的直系親屬人數(shù)不多。只有一個(gè)我繼父帶來(lái)的哥哥，我母親，我繼父和我。你呢？
 
A:  I have a large family. I have three older sisters, my twin sister, a younger brother, and parents.
 
我們家可是個(gè)大家庭。 我有3個(gè)姐姐， 一個(gè)雙胞胎姐姐，一個(gè)弟弟和我父母。
 
B:  I didn’t know you were a twin! Are you identical or fraternal?
 
我不知道你是個(gè)雙胞胎。你們是同卵雙生還是異卵雙生？
 
A:  we’re identical. I mean, we look exactly the same, but we are complete opposites when it comes to everything else.
 
我們是同卵雙生。我的意思是說(shuō)，盡管我們長(zhǎng)得一摸一樣，但是其它地方毫無(wú)相似之處。
 
B:  interesting. It must be great having a twin sister. Are you best friends, too?
 
真有意思！有個(gè)雙胞胎的姐妹的感覺(jué)一定很棒。你們倆也是最好的朋友吧？
 
A:  we used to be really close, but that all changed once she moved to Shanghai. How about your family? You didn’t mention to your biological father.
 
我們?cè)?jīng)親密無(wú)比。但后來(lái)她搬到上海以后，情況就變了。你們家的情況怎么樣？你沒(méi)有提過(guò)你的親生父親。
 
B:  I don’t know much about him. He died when I was just a baby. Even though I don’t have a blood relationship with my step-father and step-brother, I consider them to be my real family.
 
對(duì)于他的事情我知道的不多，我還在襁褓中的時(shí)候他就去世了。即使我跟我的哥哥和繼父沒(méi)有血緣關(guān)系，但我還是覺(jué)得他們就是我真正的家人。
 
A:  what about your step-brother’s mother? Does he keep in touch with her?
 
那你那位哥哥的母親怎么樣？他還跟她有聯(lián)系嗎
 
B:  no, she also died when my step-brother was little. My mother and my step-father met each other shortly after my father died and became good friends. They ended up getting married a few years later.
 
沒(méi)了。她也是在我哥哥很小的時(shí)候去世的。我父親去世后不久，我媽媽和我繼父就認(rèn)識(shí)了，還成了很好的朋友。幾年之后，他們才結(jié)婚。
 
A:  sounds like it was meant to be.
 
這似乎是命中注定。
