英文原版对话1000个:845 Fred's Year(在线收听

Sabriya: Hi, Fred.

Fred: Hi, Sabriya.

Sabriya: So, we're going to be celebrating New Year's soon. Tell me how was your year?

Fred: Wow. My year. 2007. It was a great year for me I have to say. I feel like I've grown so much as a person. I've done so many things this year that made me become I feel a much more responsible person, a more mature man. I've been working quite a bit at the school, but I've also been doing a few things outside of school, such as working with children as well. I've been working in a camp where we teach kids for twelve days English. Well, actually we don't really teach them. What we do is we spend twelve days with them and during those twelve days, the children that don't speak English come to this camp and have to only speak English for twelve days and we do all kinds of different activities with them.

Sabriya: So how do you teach the children without communicating with them?

Fred: That's the beauty of it. I understand that English is really important, but however we have this saying during the camp that our hearts speak as one and so we understand each other without using so many words, but of course the children have some basis in English and so we can understand each other.

Sabriya: OK, that's very beautiful. Going back to the topic we were discussing right now, tell me what was the best thing that happened to you this year?

Fred: The best thing that happened to me this year? I have to say that the best thing that happened to me this year was when I went back to Canada, I had the opportunity of spending lots of time with my grandmother, and you see, when I was growing up as a child she practically raised me, and so I have a special relationship with her. I do love everybody from my family, but my relationship with my grandmother is really great and spending two months with her was great for me.

Sabriya: Well, I can relate to that too since my grandmother raised me as well, so I hope you have another great year next year.

Fred: Thank you very much.
