情景对话
Katya: Hello, I'm Katya from Bulgaria.
卡蒂亚：大家好，我是卡蒂亚，来自保加利亚。
Ayumi: I'm Ayumi from Brazil.
亚由美：我是亚由美，来自巴西。
Katya: And today's question is have you ever lived with somebody from the opposite sex? Yes, I've always had various room mates and there is always a boy room mate or two girls and one boy. It's always different and it always changes. There is always new people coming in my house for some reason and I actually really like living with boys because they really help you a lot. There are some times when you need someone to carry your groceries or you need somebody to repair something in the house. Plus they don't interfere in your personal life or they don't scold you if you haven't cleaned something right on time.
卡蒂亚：今天的话题是，你和异性一起生活过吗？我的室友一直在换，一般会有一个室友是男孩或两个女孩和一个男孩。我的室友一直都不同，一直在换。经常有新人因为某种原因住进我的房子里，我很喜欢和男孩一起住，因为他们会帮很多忙。有时会需要别人帮忙提东西或修理房子里的东西。而且男孩不会干预你的私生活，如果你没有及时清理干净，男孩也不会责骂你。
Ayumi: Same here. Actually all my room mates have been boys. I've never felt uncomfortable. We are like friends, we are like family so we don't have these gender barriers saying you are a boy so you don't do this, you are a girl you don't do that. The same case, they take trash for me or they carry my stuff. They are really kind and I really like them because they are like brothers rather than like strangers.
亚由美：我也这么想。实际上我的室友一直是男孩。我从未感到不舒服。我们就像朋友、像家人一样，我们没有那些性别障碍，可能有人认为你是男生，所以你不能这么做，或者你是女生，你不能做那个，我们并没有这种想法。和你说的一样，他们会帮我倒垃圾或帮我提东西。他们非常友善，我很喜欢他们，因为他们更像我的兄弟，而不是陌生人。
Katya: Also men are really good cooks.
卡蒂亚：而且男性也很会做饭。
Ayumi: Yeah.
亚由美：对。
Katya: Right? That's why the best chefs in the world are guys.
卡蒂亚：对吧？可能这就是世界上最优秀的厨师都是男性的原因。
Ayumi: Maybe.
亚由美：可能吧。
