A Fascination for Motorcycles | 迷恋摩托车

English Original

Our son, at age five, had a fascination for motorcycles. The sight of one would always bring forth a squeal of delight, accompanied by excited remarks of "Look at that! Look at that! I'm going to have one of those someday." His dad's response always was, "Not as long as I'm alive."

One day, while our son was talking to a little friend, a motorcycle passed by. He excitedly pointed it out to the boy and exclaimed, "Look at that! Look at that! I'm getting one of those as soon as my dad dies."


中文翻译

我儿子五岁时,对摩托车非常着迷。一看见摩托车,他总是会高兴地尖叫起来,并兴奋地评论道:“看呐!看呐!总有一天我也会有一辆那样的摩托车。”他爸爸的回应总是:“只要我还活着就不行。”

一天,我儿子正和一个小伙伴说话,一辆摩托车驶过。他兴奋地指给那个男孩看,并大声说道:“看呐!看呐!只要我爸爸一死,我就能得到一辆那样的摩托车了。”
