剛加班回來, 看到J的陽光補習班作業, 差點笑到翻! 真是佩服這小妮子的寫作能力! 加油添醋真是一流! 扭曲事實更是厲害! 這禮拜的寫作主題是寫關於父母的故事, 但是不能寫關於她們的小孩 (這是甚麼限制! ) 所以, 前兩天就跟J 說了些自己小時候的事, 於是, 今晚, J 的寫作主題就是"我的娘"!
"我的娘" 第一段: My mom grew up in a high rise/apartment. Her mom had 4 children and my mom was the oldest one, she had 2 little sisters and one little brother. Her family was poor so treats were only given when the kids were being nice, but, for treats, because they were poor, they had to share the treats fairly. 我的娘住在一個高樓公寓. 她的娘有四個小孩, 而我娘是最老的一個! 她有兩個妹妹和一個弟弟. 她家很窮, 所以只有表現好的時候才有小點心可以吃, 可是, 因為很窮, 所以連小點心都要公平的分享!
"我的娘" 第二段-做不完的工作: My grandparents (My mom’s parents) work at daytime, also, my grandfather drove a taxi at night till 12:00. My grandmother owned a toy shop. 我的阿公阿嬤白天要上班, 阿公晚上要開計程車到12點. 我的阿嬤開一家小小的玩具店. (這個聽起來, 怎麼像是"愛上巧克力"的洪爸&洪媽咧?)
It’s not the kind where you open a door and walk around and then go to the check out desk and walk back out with you things in a nice little bag. My grandmother was too poor to own a store like that. She took the toys my mom and her siblings didn’t want and put them onto a table on the sidewalk. 這玩具店不是像一般的店, 有門可以開, 進去可以走走看看. 我的阿嬤真是太窮了, 無法開這樣的店! 她只能把我媽和弟妹不要的玩具放在一張桌上, 然後擺在路邊賣! (這... 這... 這不是 yard sale 嗎???!!!! )
After school, my mom would help her mom by giving the change, the toys and collecting the money. 我媽放學後會回家幫忙顧"店"!
When my mother was in high-school she had to drop out for a while so her mom could finish high-school and college. While my grandmother was doing these things, my mom had to run the shop, make the food and clean the house. 當我娘高中時, 她必須輟學讓她娘回去上高中和大學, 當她娘忙於學業時, 我娘必須經營玩具店, 煮飯和持家! (喂! 妳娘沒有高中輟學好嗎?! 但是妳阿嬤也無緣念大學... >_< 妳娘念高中時, 已經沒有玩具可以賣了!!!! )
When my mom’s mom was finally finished with college my mom continued high-school and went to America for college. Later on my dad came to America for college in the same school as my mom. They met and slowly became friends and loved each other. 當我娘的娘終於大學畢業, 我娘得以繼續完成高中, 然後來美國上大學! 然後我的爹也到美國的同一個大學, 他們終於慢慢的變成朋友, 然後交往!! (抱歉! J, 阿嬤還是沒機會上大學, 娘是在台灣念完高中和大學才到美國來的, 還有, 你爹比妳娘更早到美國! )
First they married in Taiwan and married again in Taiwan (Without breaking up) because they liked Taiwan’s ways of taking pictures. They got clear pictures. 首先, 他們在台灣結婚了. 然後又再台灣結一次婚 (沒有分手), 只是因為他們喜歡台灣的婚紗照! 他們拿到很漂亮的婚紗照!! ( 聽起來, 你爹娘好像犯了重婚罪, 但是每拍一次婚紗, 不表示就結過一次婚喔! 要不然, 有人每五年 , 十年就拍一次, 不是婚要結昏頭了嗎?! )
