托德：馬克，我看到了你孩子的漂亮照片。我都不知道你已經有孩子了！

馬克：是啊，我兒子叫羅伊，現在有1歲4個月了。
Todd: Oh wow, that's exciting!
托德：哇，太令人激動了！
Mark: Yeah I mean everyone said there would be lots of changes in your life, but it's probably changed my wife's life more than mine. But I still enjoy giving him his bath and helping put him to bed and playing with him in the mornings and at the weekend.
馬克：是啊，所有人都說有孩子之后會給你的生活帶來很多改變，不過現在的情況更像是，相較于我來說孩子的到來更多地改變了我妻子的生活。我喜歡給他洗澡，把他放到床上，每天早上和周末時跟他一起玩耍。
Todd: Oh, that's great. So, what's it like being a father?
托德：真好。成為父親是什么感覺？
Mark: A lot of fun. As I said, I think my wife has a harder job looking after him during the day. The father can have the good jobs in the evening and the early morning and at the weekend.
馬克：有很多樂趣。就如我所說，我妻子一整天都要照顧孩子，我覺得她更辛苦。父親可以在晚上、清晨和周末時陪伴孩子。
Todd: So is your child speaking yet?
托德：你的孩子現在會說話了嗎？
Mark: Not quite, but he understands English and Japanese. So if we tell him off in either language he runs away and starts crying. He's just started walking.

托德：現在你有了孩子，你的孩子睡多長時間的覺？
Mark: Well he's a good sleeper. He's basically always slept from about 9 in the morning, 9 in the evening until 6.30 or 7 in the morning. He's waking up a little bit earlier now because it's lighter earlier.
馬克：他睡得很好。他每天上午9點睡覺，抱歉，是晚上九點睡覺，第二天早上6點半或7點醒來。他現在睡醒的時間要比之前早，越來越早。
Todd: Oh, wow, so what does your child like to do? Do you play special games with your …, with Roy?
托德：哦，哇，你們家孩子喜歡做什么？你會和你的兒子羅伊玩特別的游戲嗎？
