口语情景对话：走遍美国精选祖父的行李箱ACT 3 - 2

ACT 3-2 这照片使我想起了过去的岁月

【故事梗概】

在Stewart家的客厅里，一家人在和祖父Malcolm交谈。在家中Malcolm受到了儿孙两代人的热烈欢迎，惟一的遗憾是没有见到酷似故去的祖母的孙女Susan.

Robbie: When can we go fishing?

Grandpa: Robbie, we'll go fishing soon, and we'll take your dad with us.

Philip: I'm ready, Grandpa. You name the day.

Ellen: That's a great idea, Grandpa! Philip needs a day off.

Robbie: Let's give him our presents - now.

Richard: Good idea.

Grandpa: Presents - for me?

Richard: From me and Marilyn.

Robbie: And this one's from me. I looked all over the house to find it.

Grandpa: Richard, these are terrific pictures. This one really brings back memories. You remember that day, Robbie?

Robbie: I sure do. It was fun.

Grandpa: Oh, I'm sorry Susan isn't here. I miss her very much.

Ellen: She feels bad, too, Grandpa. She called to say the plane was delayed. You know airports.

Grandpa: I can't wait to see her. She looks just like Grandma at that age.

【语言点精讲】

你说哪天吧。name 用做动词时，在口语中常用于提出建议，做出安排或说出什么的名字。又如：Name the place, and we'll be there.（你说哪里，我们就去哪里。）

He named a Price.（他开了个价。）

2. Philip needs a day off.

a day off 休息一天，休一天假。

3. Let's give him our presents - now.

咱们把礼物给他吧——现在就给。

美国人有时喜欢送给久别重逢的亲友一个 welcome present表示对他们的欢迎。所以 Stewart 一家送给Grandpa family's welcome present 来表示他们对他的爱。

4. I looked all over the house to find it.

我在家里找了个遍才找到的。

all over the house指屋子里的每个角落。

5. This one really brings back memories.

bring back memories （使我想起了过去的岁月）。用来表达一种怀旧的感情。

6. I can't wait to see her. She looks just like Grandma at that age.

我迫不及待地想见到她，她长得和她奶奶在她那个年龄时一样。

can't wait to do sth. 迫不及待地想做某事
