Todd: OK, Keri, I've heard you talk about your father quite a bit. He sounds like a very interesting man. Can you talk a little bit about him?

克丽,听说你经常谈论起你父亲。他似乎是个有趣的人。你能跟我们讲讲他吗?
Kerri: Sure. My dad's name is Robert and he's an interesting guy. He's retired now and lives in Oregon and in his free time he's building an airplane (wow!) Yeah!
好的。我爸爸的名字叫罗伯特,他是个有趣的人。他现在退休了,住在俄勒冈州,他的业余时间都在造一架飞机。
Todd: So can he fly a plane as well?
那他会开飞机吗?
Kerri: Yeah, he has a private pilot's license.
是的,他有私人飞机执照。
Todd: Wow, that must be pretty difficult. He's actually making a plane from scratch.
哇,那一定很难考。他正从头开始制造一架飞机。
Kerri: Yeah. Well, he used to be an airplane mechanic, so quite awhile ago. But yeah, he's doing all the riveting, building all the different parts of the plane and assembling it.
他曾是一名飞机机械师,那已经是很久以前的事了。他现在正忙着构造并制作飞机的各个部分,并最终装配成飞机。
Todd: Wow! So when do you think he's going to be finished.
哇!那你认为他什么时候能完成?
Kerri: I don't know. I got an e-mail from him recently that said he's just putting the tail section on soon. But I haven't seen a picture of that yet.
我不知道。我最近收到了他的邮件,他马上要把飞机尾部安装上了。但我还没有看过他飞机的照片。
Todd: Wow. So are you going to go in this plane with your father as soon as it's finished?
哇。那么,这家飞机完成后,你会和你的爸爸一起乘坐它吗?
Kerri: I hope so. He's having someone else test fly it which made me happy when I found out. Although I trust his work cause he's meticulous but it made me feel good that someone else is going to try it for the first time, but yeah, after it's finished, when he's ready to take up passengers.
希望如此。我很高兴的是他找了专人测试这家飞机。虽然我很相信我父亲的技术,因为他一直都是一丝不苟地。但如果有其他人先试一下会更好,当然还要等他完成了这架飞机,准备好招待乘客后再说。
Todd: Cool. Sounds fun.
酷,听上去不错。
Kerri: Yeah. I think so.
是的。我也这么认为。
