英語口語練習小對話 第269期:意想不到 出乎意料

迷你對話：

A: The trouble is not that. It is that he may suddenly remember something I promised him a couple of weeks ago, out of a clear blue sky. Then he complains that I have gone back on my words.

麻煩不是這個，而在於他會突然想起幾個星期前我對他的承諾。然後就抱怨我言而無信。

B: Does he do that with his Dad? I mean, does he complain things to his father?

他對父親也是這樣嗎？我的意思是，他向父親抱怨嗎？

A: He never does, and in fact, he seldom communicates with him.

從來沒有，事實上是他幾乎不和他交談。

B: But didn’t you say that his Dad takes him under his wings？

但是你不是說他的爸爸總是寵着他嗎？

A: Yes, I did. He only takes side with him. He seldom asks what Dick is doing.

對，我是這樣說的。不過他只是偏袒迪克，而很少過問他在幹什麼。
