Mona: I want a lawn. I’ve always pictured our new house with a lawn.
莫娜：我想要一個草坪。我一直幻想我們的新家會有一個草坪。
Kellan: Lawns require a lot of water and upkeep. I think we should use hardscape for most of the yard and plant only drought-tolerant plants.
凱蘭：草坪需要很多水和保養(yǎng)費。我覺得咱家院子主要還是弄成硬景觀，然后只種耐旱植物。
Mona: I don’t want my yard to be full of gravel and rocks. I picture a water feature in the middle, with annuals and perennials planted all around it, surrounded by a big, beautiful lawn.
莫娜：我可不希望院子里全是砂礫和巖石。我幻想院子中間是一個水景，水景被一年生或多年生植物環(huán)繞著，然后再被一個美麗的大草坪包圍。
Kellan: We can have some kind of slow-growing ground cover if you want to, but the rest isn’t practical.
凱蘭：如果你愿意，咱們可以種一些長得慢的地表植被，但其他的就不現(xiàn)實了。
Mona: I don’t know what you mean. We can plant a hedge over there and install planters along the walkway.
莫娜：我不明白你的意思。我們可以在那邊圍一個籬笆，然后沿著過道種植。
Kellan: Who will do the pruning and mulching? Who will pull the weeds and mow the lawn? Who will rake the leaves when the seasons change?
凱蘭：誰來修剪、護(hù)根呢？誰來除雜草割草坪呢？換季的時候誰來掃落葉？
Mona: Well, I guess I will, with your help.
莫娜：那我想我會做的，不過是在你的幫助下。
Kellan: Don’t count on me. My motto is: No muss, no fuss!
凱蘭：別指望我。我的座右銘是：拒絕雜亂，拒絕煩擾！
