Timmy: Does anyone need anything from the supermarket?
Mom: Why? Are you going to walk?
Timmy: Nope. I can ride all by myself now!
Mom: How? Who taught you to do that?
Timmy: Me and Philip took turns helping each other to learn. Now we can both ride by ourselves!
Mom: That's great! But I bet your father's disappointed that he wasn't the one to teach you.
Timmy: I warned you guys that I'd practice every day of my life!!

一个月之后
提米:有谁需要去超级市场买什么东西吗?
妈妈:怎么了?你要走路过去?
提米:才不呢。我现在可以自己骑车了!
妈妈:怎么会?谁教你的?
提米:我和菲利普轮流帮对方练习。现在我们两个都能自己骑了!
妈妈:真棒!但我猜你爸爸一定很失望自己不是教你骑车的人。
提米:我警告过你们了,我这辈子每天都要练习!!
重点解说:
★ Nope. = No.的口语说法
★ take turns 轮流
★ disappointed (a.) 感到失望的
