Daniel: Oh, come on, Ultraman!

May: What's up, Bro? What's in the bulletin?

Daniel: It says that there will be a blackout from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in our neighborhood today.

May: Blackout? Even the TV has the limit.

Daniel: (starting at May angrily) Don't you know you will look like a monster in the blackout?

May: Oops, no, Daddy can't watch American Idol, either!

Daniel: That's not the point. Come on, can you imagine that there will be no electricity on such a hot day?

May: Oh, my god! No air-conditioner!

Daniel: OK, since you are the smart one, can you come up with a better plan? So that we won't be baked like cookies here.

May: How about playing Barbie out there in the neighborhood?

Daniel: Barbie? You know, I might be seven, but I'm not a girl.

May: Do you have a better plan?

Daniel: All right, all right.

丹尼尔：噢，天哪，《奥特曼》！

阿美：怎么啦？弟弟。布告栏上面说的是什么？

丹尼尔：布告栏上说社区今天晚上5点到7点要停电。

阿美：停电？就连电视也不能看了。

丹尼尔：（怒视着看阿美）难道你不知道你现在看起来就像黑暗中的魔鬼吗？

阿美：啊，爸爸也看不了他的《美国偶像》了！

丹尼尔：那根本就不是重点。拜托，你能够想象在那么热的天没有电的情况吗？

阿美：噢，天哪，空调也用不了了！

丹尼尔：既然你很聪明，你能想出一个更好的计划吗？这样的话我们就不会像被烘烤的饼干一样了。

阿美：那么带小狗芭比一块儿去社区玩怎么样？

丹尼尔：芭比？虽然我只有七岁，但是我又不是女孩子。

阿美：那么你有更好的计划吗？

丹尼尔：算了，随便。

May: When blackout happened in our community my little brother Daniel couldn't watch his favorite cartoon Ultraman, and my Dad couldn't watch American Idol either. So they would say blackout is a disaster. But for me it's fine. I'd just play out with our dog Barbie. And that is really fun.
