Hi, Mary. I'm making some plans to work for the old people this summer holidays.
嗨，玛丽。这个暑假我打算去为老年人工作。
Sounds great. I did that last summer with one of my best friends.
听起来很棒。去年暑假我就和我的一个最好的朋友做过这个。
What did you do to the old?
你们为老人做了什么事情呢？
Mm ... things like reading the newspaper to the old people, doing some cleaning and talking with them.
嗯……像给老人读报纸、打扫卫生以及陪他们聊天这类事情。
They also told us stories about the past and how things used to be.
他们也会给我们讲发生在过去的一些故事和过去的一些面貌。
That sounds interesting.
听起来很有趣。
Most sons and daughters are very busy with their work outside, leaving the parents at home most of the time.
大多数的子女都在外面忙于工作，他们大部分的时间都会把父母留在家里。
Yeah, a lot of old people are lonely. They need someone to talk with.
是的，很多老年人都很孤独。他们需要有人倾诉。
You are right. We should listen to them and take good care of them.
你说得对。我们应该多听听他们说话，好好照顾他们。
Will you join and help us this summer holidays?
这个暑假你会来加入我们、帮助我们吗？
Sure. We're going to be old one day, too. Helping the old is helping ourselves.
当然会。总有一天我们也会变老。帮助老人就是帮助我们自己。
Exactly. Thanks a lot.
没错。非常感谢。
