M：You are married to a foreigner, aren't you? So what's it like?
你跟一个老外结婚了，是吗?那样的生活怎么样?
F：Well, in the first year of our marriage, we had great difficulties in getting along. The things that are important to me are not important to him. We had a lot of conflicts.
嗯，我们结婚的第一年，彼此很难相处。对我来说重要的事在他看来却不重要。我们有过很多冲突。
M：Yeah, I know what you mean. The first year of any marriage is difficult for all couples, not to mention two people from different cultures.
是，我知道你什么意思。结婚的第一年对任何夫妻来说都很难，更不用说两个来自不同文化背景的人了。
F：Now we have a two-year-old boy. We're very happy that he's healthy and smart.
现在我们有了一个两岁的男孩。我们很高兴他很健康、很聪明。
M：Oh, so he's half Chinese and half American. That's unusual. What languages does he speak, then?
噢，那么他是一半中国血统、一半美国血统，很不寻常。那他讲什么语言?
F：Right now he speaks mostly English, and he can say a few Chinese words. But he will learn in the future.
现在他主要讲英文，他只会说几个中文单字。但是日后他会学。
M：What does he look like? Can people tell?
他长得怎么样?别人看得出来吗?
F：Yes, people surely can. He's whiter than the Chinese kids，and his hair is a little blonde. My husband says his eyes are very Chinese though.
能，别人当然能看出来。他比其他中国小孩白，头发有点金黄。但我丈夫说他的眼睛很像中国人的。
