Don't get me wrong. My uncle isn't poor. He makes pretty good money from the books he writes.
别误会，我的叔叔不穷，他写书赚了不少钱。
But he has simple needs and we live simple lives.
但他的需求简单，我们过着简单的生活。
My mother was the youngest child in her family and was a teacher, so she and Uncle Jeff had more in common.
我的母亲在家里年龄最小，是一名老师，所以她和杰夫叔叔的共同点更多一些。
They had a lot to talk about and were good friends. Aunt April lived in another world.
他们有很多话可以谈，是好朋友，而爱普莉姨妈生活在另一个世界。
Aunt April thought that my parents didn't trust her to raise me.

But I think my mother just knew that I loved Uncle Jeff and he loved me.
但是我想我母亲知道我爱杰夫叔叔，杰夫叔叔也爱我。
And we got along very well. We think alike, even though we look nothing alike.

I'm tall and have thick, black hair and brown eyes like my father, and Uncle Jeff has wavy,

light brown hair and green eyes like my mother.

And even though I'm 19 years old, Aunt April thinks I'm still 14. She likes to tell Uncle Jeff and me what to do.

"Hey, look where you're going! You almost hit me!" I was parking my car in the parking lot at the university.
“嘿，你要去哪里！”你差点撞到我!”我正把车停在学校的停车场。
I was thinking so much about Aunt April that I didn't see the girl walking in front of me.
我一直在想爱普莉姨妈，所以没看到走在我前面的女孩。
