罗斯:
Do you think children watch too much TV?



你不觉得孩子们看电视看得太多了吗?
巴德:
I can`t agree. I only allow my child to watch up to an hour a day. I don`t think that TV is bad for kids. I think that kids should be active and not become couch potatoes.



我不能同意你的观点.我只允许我的孩子每天看一个小时.我并不认为看电视对孩子们是有害的.我觉得孩子们应该活泼好动.而不是成为电视迷.
罗斯:
Perhaps I should impose a limit on how much TV my kids can watch. They don`t do much else in their free time.



可能我得限制一下我的孩子们看电视的时间.他们空闲的时候都不做别的什么事情
巴德:
If you decide to put a limit on the amount of TV they can watch, remember to have something else for them to do. If you don`t, they`ll get bored.



如果你要限制孩子们看电视的时间.记得给他们找点儿别的事情做.否则.他们会很无聊
罗斯:
I believe so. They could go out and play with their friends.



我相信这一点.他们可以出去和朋友一起玩儿.
巴德:
Sure. You could talk to other parents in your neighborhood and plan it so that all the kids are free at the same time.



是的.你可以跟邻居们商量好.这样所有的孩子都能同时有时间一起玩儿.
罗斯:
Perhaps I could ask my husband to teach them foot ball or something. He watches too much TV too.



也许我应该让我丈夫教他们踢足球之类的.他也老是看电视.
巴德:
That`s a good idea. Remember that if the parents watch too much TV, the kids will probably follow suit.



这是个好主意.要知道如果父母看太多想电视.孩子们就会照着学.
