K: Kevin E: Emily
Kevin has to babysit this weekend. He asks his friend Emily for advice.
K: My uncle’s kids are coming to my house this weekend, and I’ll have to look after them all day on Saturday.
E: Oh, babysitting can be fun! How many of them are there?
K: There’re four of them, and they are full of energy. I’m not sure how I should handle them all.
E: Just play games to keep them occupied.
K: Like video games?
E: No. Do something that gets them running around in the yard, like tag or hide-and-seek.
凱文這個週末必須當臨時保母。他向他的朋友艾蜜莉尋求建議。
凱 文: 我叔叔的孩子這個週末要來我家,我週六得照顧他們一整天。
艾蜜莉: 哦,當臨時保母很有趣的!總共有多少人?
凱 文: 他們有四個人,而且他們精力充沛。我不確定該如何應付他們。
艾蜜莉: 只要玩遊戲讓他們有事可做就行了。
凱 文: 像是電動嗎?
艾蜜莉: 不是。做一些可以讓他們在院子裡跑來跑去的事,像是鬼抓人或捉迷藏。
