Daniel: Daddy, I am so glad you come out with us.

Dad: Honey, I am sorry that I am too busy most of the time.

Daniel: It doesn't matter. But I really haven't gone for a picnic for a long time.

Dad: What did you do last weekend?

Daniel: It was boring. Just did my homework and practiced the piano.

Dad: Did you play football with other children?

Daniel: Ahh, I was not available last Sunday. I was too busy almost as much as you.

Dad: Cool, we can take the football, shuttlecock and badminton racket to the park.

Daniel: Hooray! I can play football with daddy. Mom and sister can play badminton.

Dad: After that, we will have a picnic.

Daniel: That's great. We can also take the dragon kite with us. After the picnic, we can fly it.

Dad: Okay, it sounds good.

丹尼尔：爸爸，你能和我们一起出去玩，我真是太高兴了。

爸爸：宝贝，我很抱歉，很多时候我总是太忙。

丹尼尔：没关系。不过我真的很久没有出去野餐了。

爸爸：你上周末做什么了？

丹尼尔：太无聊了。只是写家庭作业，练钢琴。

爸爸：和其他小孩子踢足球了吗？

丹尼尔：哈，我上周日没有时间。我几乎和您一样忙呢。

爸爸：好的，我们可以带着足球，羽毛球和羽毛球拍去公园。

丹尼尔：好耶！我可以和爸爸一起踢足球。妈妈就和姐姐打羽毛球。

爸爸：之后，我们一起野餐。

丹尼尔：太棒了。我们也可以带着那只龙风筝。野餐之后可以放风筝。

爸爸：好的，听起来不错哦。

Daniel: My Dad is always busy with his work. But once he has some time he would go out with us for picnics or stuff like that. Then it would be really a big day for me. But before we can go I'd have to finish the homework first which can be a bit boring. But anyway, it's all worth it. Just think of the good time we're gonna have.
