Going to the Beach

Oh, George, what a beautiful day it is today! The sun is hot and there are just a few clouds scattered here and there! What a perfect day to be at the beach! The kids are going to have so much fun! And we’ll be able to relax in the sun while they’re playing.

哦，乔治，今天天气真好啊！太阳很晒，天上只有几朵云散开着！真是去海滩的完美日子！孩子们一定会玩得很开心的！而且他们玩的时候我们还能在太阳下放松一下。

It does seem like the perfect day! I’m glad we chose to get out of the city and enjoy the nice weather! This looks like the perfect spot! Ok kids, put on your sunscreen while your mom and I set up camp. Here, Mary, help me lay down these beach towels.

看起来确实是完美的一天！很高兴我们决定离开城市，享受好天气！这个地方看起来很不错！好了孩子们，妈妈和我搭帐篷的时候你们先涂好防晒霜。来，玛丽，帮我把沙滩巾铺好。

There we go. Can you help me with the umbrella? Perfect.

好了。你能帮我撑一下伞吗？完美。

Ok kids, here’s a beach ball and a Frisbee, a pail and a shovel. I want to see an impressive sandcastle by the time we leave. Don’t stray too far. Wait! Leave your sandals here or put on your wet shoes.

好了孩子们，这里有个沙滩球、一个飞盘、一个小桶和一把铲子。我希望走的时候能看到一个很棒的沙堡。别跑太远。等等！把凉鞋留在这，或者穿上涉水鞋。

And stay in the shallow area. I don’t want to see you go any farther than that sandbar! It’s too deep out there and we didn’t bring your floaties.

还有就在浅水区玩。我不想看到你们游到那个沙坝以外的地方！那边太深了，而且我们没带你们的游泳圈。

You’re back already? The water was too cold, huh? I’ll tell you a secret. Do you see that small pool of water over there? It’ll be warmer in there. Go see if you can find some seashells or catch some minnows.

你们这么快就回来了？水太冷了吧？我告诉你们一个秘密。看到那边那个小水洼了吗？那里的水会更暖和。去看看能不能找到一些贝壳或者捉几条小鱼。

What is that? A jellyfish? Jeremy, put that down right now! It could sting you!

那是什么？水母？杰里米，马上放下！它会蜇到你的！

Ah! Not on me! Ow!

啊！别弄到我身上！哎哟！
