Gardening

I’ve decided to grow my own garden!

我决定自己种个花园！

What? You don’t know the first thing about gardening!

什么？你对种花种菜一窍不通吧！

On the contrary, I have been reading a lot of books about the subject.

恰恰相反，我读了不少这方面的书。

Oh yeah? Tell me then, smarty pants, how will you go about setting up your garden?

哦是吗？那你说说看，大聪明，你打算怎么搞你的花园？

Well, first I need to buy some things, such as fertilizer, seeds and tools.

嗯，首先得买点东西，像肥料、种子和工具。

What type of tools?

什么样的工具？

You know, the basics. A rake, shovel, spade and a hoe.

就基本的那些，耙子、铁锹、铲子和锄头。

Right. Well it seems like you have all your bases covered. What’s next?

行。看来你都考虑周全了。接下来呢？

I’ll till the soil and then sow the seeds. I’ll then add some fertilizer and voila! Gardening all done!

我会翻土，然后播种，再加点肥料，搞定！种园子就这么简单。

Well, good luck with your garden, especially considering we are in the dry season and it won’t rain for the next three months!

那祝你好运啊，尤其现在还是旱季，接下来三个月都不下雨！
