A：Hey Mel! Are you up for some tennis today?

你好，Mel。你今天有空打網(wǎng)球嗎？

B：Sorry, I can’t! I have to go to work, pick up Jake and Maddie from school, and make them an afternoon snack, then take Jake to soccer practice and Maddie to dance class.

對不起，我去不了，我得去干活，去學(xué)校接Jake和Maddie。并給他們做午飯，然后帶Jake去進(jìn)行足球訓(xùn)練，送Maddie去舞蹈班。

A：You sound exhausted. Maybe you should hire a nanny to help you out! She can pick the kids up and take them to their after-school activities. She can also help you do some household chores, and run so

你聽起來很疲憊，也許你該雇個保姆來幫你。她能接孩子，并帶他們參加放學(xué)后的活動。她也能幫你做些家務(wù)活，給你跑跑腿。

B：Oh, I don’t know... it’s hard to find the right nanny .You have to consider her previous work experience, the responsibilities you give her, and how she interacts with the kids. I would love to have

喔，我不知道，很難找到合適的保姆。你必須得考慮她以前的工作經(jīng)驗，你教給她的責(zé)任，以及她是如何和孩子們溝通的。但是我倒是想雇人來幫幫我。

A：I think you should definitely consider it! This way you won’t have to juggle such a busy schedule, and you’ll still get to spend time with the kids in the evenings. I can refer you this grea

我認(rèn)為你應(yīng)該好好考慮下。這樣你就被繁忙的時間表弄得手忙腳亂，而且晚上你還可以和孩子們在一起。我能給你推薦個好保姆。在我的鄰居搬走之前，她過去經(jīng)常為他們工作。她很負(fù)責(zé)，也是個好廚子，而且對孩子們很好。

B：Oh, that’s great. Thanks Grace. Can you give me her number? I’ll talk it over with Dan and give her a call tomorrow. Maybe this way I won’t be so tired every day, and Dan and I might even get to go

那太好了，謝謝，Grace。你把她的電話給我嗎？我要和Dan談?wù)劊�明天給她打個電話。也許這樣我就不必每天這樣如此皮別，Dan和我甚至還可以時不時去約會下。
