實(shí)戰(zhàn)口語(yǔ)情景對(duì)話：Dogs 狗狗

One of our dogs at home, he used to go walking with my granddad, and it was on these old country roads, so very quite really, not many cars would pass so the dog, Jonathan, used to run off in front of my granddad and my granddad's hearing wasn't too good at that time, he was already quite old, so he wouldn't always hear cars coming, so every time a car was coming, the dog would, Jonathan would come running back to my granddad so that, and he did this every time a car came so my granddad knew that if Jonathan came running back towards him, he knew that he had to stand in closer to the edge of the road so that, you know, he wouldn't be in danger of being knocked down by a car or anything because those old country roads, you know when I was younger, we used to walk in the middle of the road, or you know, not quite by the edge, cause there were so few cars, you didn't really need to keep by the edge and there were no foot paths along the side, so you were just walking along the edge of the road, so he was a really clever dog in he could alert my granddad, you know to whether a car was coming or not.

我們家有一只狗經(jīng)常和我爺爺一起去散步，他們散步的那條路是古老的鄉(xiāng)村小路，非常非常安靜，經(jīng)過(guò)的汽車不多，所以這只名為喬納森的狗經(jīng)常跑在我爺爺?shù)那懊?，那時(shí)我爺爺?shù)穆犃σ呀?jīng)不好了，他當(dāng)時(shí)年紀(jì)已經(jīng)很大了，所以他不是總能聽到汽車經(jīng)過(guò)的聲音，每次有汽車來(lái)的時(shí)候，小狗喬納森就會(huì)跑回來(lái)找我爺爺，而每次一有汽車它就這樣跑回來(lái)，因此我爺爺就知道，如果喬納森跑回來(lái)找他，那就意味著他要站在靠近路邊的地方，這樣他就不會(huì)有被車撞到的危險(xiǎn)了，那些鄉(xiāng)村小路你也知道，在我小的時(shí)候，我們常常走在路中間，或者不會(huì)靠路邊走，因?yàn)槟抢锲嚭苌?，你不用總是靠在路邊，而且路邊也沒(méi)有人行道，所以你只能沿著路邊走，所以喬納森是只非常聰明的狗，他會(huì)提醒我爺爺，讓他知道是否有車輛經(jīng)過(guò)。

I think most dogs are very intelligent. I've met some people who say their dog is a bit stupid but I don't believe that really. I think most dogs are quite intelligent, even if they're not really good guard dogs, you know, some dogs aren't good guard dogs. They don't bark enough when strangers come or something like that, but I still think they're probably very intelligent, and even if they're not, they're probably very affectionate, which is a plus definitely. It's almost as good as having a really intelligent guard dog I think.

我認(rèn)為大部分狗狗都很聰明，我遇到過(guò)一些說(shuō)他們的狗有點(diǎn)笨的人，但是我認(rèn)為那并不是事實(shí)。我認(rèn)為大多數(shù)小狗都非常聰明，即使它們不是好的看門狗，你知道的，有些狗并不是很好的看門狗。像是有陌生人來(lái)的時(shí)候它們并不怎么叫，但是我仍然認(rèn)為它們是聰明的，即使它們不夠好，但是它們很重感情，這絕對(duì)是好的方面。我認(rèn)為這與擁有一只聰明的看門狗一樣好。
