美语情景对话 第1242期:What is a talent you wish you had? 你希望拥有什么才能
Gareth: Hello, my name is Gareth and I'm from England.
加雷斯：大家好，我是加雷斯，来自英国。Aiko: Hello, my name is Aiko and I'm from Japan.
爱子：大家好，我是爱子，来自日本。Gareth: And our question is what is the talent you wish you had ?
加雷斯：我们要谈论的话题是，你希望拥有什么才能？
Aiko: Should I answer first?
爱子：应该我先回答吗？Gareth: Yep, please do.
加雷斯：好，请回答。Aiko: I wish I could sing and dance very well. When I'm watching a kids' TV show with our children, they often sing, sing Mom or dance and I try my best but it's quite terrible and then I wish I could do it very well. How about you Gareth?
爱子：我希望能有唱歌和跳舞的才能。我和孩子们看儿童电视节目时，我的孩子们经常会说“妈妈来唱首歌吧或是妈妈跳个舞”，可是我尽了最大努力，却做得非常糟糕，所以我希望我也能有这种才能。你呢，加雷斯？Gareth: I wish I could play the guitar and this is because whenever you go to a party there's always a guitar somewhere in the house, right? Just in the corner of the room or somewhere like that, so I wish I could just pick it up and then play like Jimmi Hendrix. I think it would impress all of my friends and maybe it's something that I could do as a job in the future and get money for playing the guitar.
加雷斯：我希望能有弹奏吉他的才华，因为每次参加派对时，都会有吉他放在房间里的某个地方，对吧？可能是房间的角落或是其他地方，所以我希望我能拿起吉他，像吉米·亨德里克斯一样演奏。我想那会给所有朋友留下深刻印象，也许未来我还能用这个才能来工作，通过演奏吉他挣钱。Aiko: You play the guitar and I sing, that would be perfect.
爱子：你弹吉他，我唱歌，那就太完美了。Gareth: A duo, yes.
加雷斯：二人组搭档表演。
