端午节前一天是星期六,在大学做老师的姑姑回老家过节。她带我与妈妈一起去她的好朋友去做客,姑姑的朋友是一对70多岁的退休在家的作家。 The day before the Dragon Boat Festival is Saturday. My aunt, who is a teacher in the University, goes back to her hometown for the festival. She took me and my mother to visit her good friend, a retired writer in her 70s. 一到奶奶家,我们每个人满头大汗,作家奶奶马上从冰箱里拿出一个很甜很甜的大西瓜,切开来请我们吃。过了一会儿,作家爷爷打开电视让我看,我一边看电视,一边吃西瓜,但感觉电视不太精彩,又没有小朋友玩,大人的话我播不上嘴,我差点打瞌睡了。 As soon as we arrived at Grandma's house, we were all sweating. Grandma, the writer, took out a big watermelon from the refrigerator and cut it for us to eat. After a while, my grandfather turned on the TV for me to watch. I watched TV and ate watermelon at the same time, but I didn't feel that the TV was very wonderful, and there were no children to play. I couldn't watch it when adults were speaking. I almost fell asleep. 作家奶奶看到我很无聊,她就打电话请她的外甥唐凯来陪我一起玩。唐凯是幼儿园大班的小朋友,下半年要读一年级了。他看到我这个小学二年级的大姐姐,感到很兴奋,问起了许多小学里的事情,我一一回答。作家爷爷为了让我们玩得有味道,提出来让我们二个小朋友一起写字、画画比赛。我们马上拿出笔,认真地开始写啊、画啊,然后作家爷爷将我们的作品进行了评比,大部分是我赢了。姑姑对唐凯说我是学校的三好学生,各方面表现很好。唐凯羡慕地对我说:“姐姐,你真棒,我下半年读小学后,一定要象你一样好好学习,也争取当三好学生。” |
