1 Well, there are just three of us: my mum, my dad and me.
1. 嗯，目前我家只有三個人：我媽媽，我爸爸和我。
2 Have I got many possessions? Yes, I've got a lot of things: a big TV, a new computer and a mobile phone.
2. 我有多少個人物品？是的，我有很多東西：一個大電視，一臺新電腦和移動電話。
3 No, I'm not expected to do the housework.
3. 不，我從不想做家務。
4 We go out for dinner together sometimes, but my dad is often abroad on business, and my mum works too. We usually just do our own personal things.
4. 我們有時一起出去吃晚飯，但是我爸是經常在國外出差，我媽媽也要上班，我們經常是各忙各的。
5 No, they don't usually set rules for me and since I'm a good daughter they never punish me.
5. 他們通常不會為我設置規則，因為我是個乖女兒，他們從來沒有懲罰過我。
6 Well, I like our new flat. It's much bigger than our last one. But I feel lonely when my parents are away from home.
6. 嗯，我喜歡我們的新公寓，它比我們上一個大多了。但是當我爸爸媽媽都不在家時，我會覺得孤獨。

1 My mum, dad, grandma and my sister Rosie. Although it sometimes feels crowded in our little flat we don't mind.
1. 我的媽媽，爸爸，奶奶和妹妹 Rosie。雖然有時感覺我們的小公寓很擁擠，但我們不介意。
2 No, I haven't got many possessions. I have no interest in things like fashionable clothe. New fashions soon go out of date, don't they? That's what my grandma says.
2. 不，我沒有多少個人物品。我對如時髦衣服之類的東西沒有興趣，新款式很快就會過時的，不是嗎？這是我奶奶說的。
3 Yes, I help with the housework. I wash the dishes and even iron my own shirts. My grandma says young people should learn to look after themselves.
3. 是的，我幫忙做家務。我洗碗碟，甚至熨燙我自己的襯衫。我的奶奶認為，年輕人應該學會照顧自己。
4 Yes, we like doing things together. We eat meals together every day, and my family always come to school events.
4. 是的，我們喜歡一起做事。我們每天一起吃飯，并且我的家人經常來參加學校的活動。
5 Yes, I suppose they set some rules for me. For example, unless I finish all my homework, I can't watch TV, and I can't go out with my friends either.
5. 是的，我想他們給我設置了一些規定，例如，除非我完成了我所有的功課，否則不可以看電視，或者不能和我朋友出去（玩）。
6 I love all my family very much. We have a close relationship, and we always support each other.
6. 我非常愛我的家人。我們的關系很親密，我們永遠都相互支持。
