Robert： Did you hear about Jake Oliver, Dad?

罗伯特：爸爸，你听说过杰克·奥利弗吗？

William： Jake Oliver?

威廉：杰克·奥利弗？

Robert： You know. He's the world karate champion. He came first in his age-group last year.

罗伯特：要知道，他是空手道世界冠军。去年，他取得了他那个年龄组的冠军。

William： Oh, yes. He's only 12, isn't he?

威廉：噢，对了。他才12岁，对吧？

Robert： That's right. He lives in Bristol. He was on his way home from a practice session last week, and a tall guy with a hood grabbed him.

罗伯特：对。他住在布里斯托尔。上周，在他上完训练课回家的路上，一个戴风帽的高个子拦住了他。

This guy wanted him to hand over his mobile phone.

这人让他交出手机。

Robert： Jake said to himself, 'I earned this phone! I worked really hard to be able to buy it!'

罗伯特：杰克对自己说：“这个手机是我自己挣来的，我非常努力地工作才买了它！”

William： Obviously, he wouldn't want a thief to take it like that!

威廉：显然，他是不会让这个贼把手机拿走的！

Robert： Right!

罗伯特：说得对！

Robert： So the guy tried to punch him. Jake stepped sideways, and gave him one in the face. It broke the guy's nose.

罗伯特：所以那人就要打他。杰克一侧身闪开了，并照着那人的脸给了一拳，结果打断了他的鼻子。

There was blood everywhere. The thief held his nose and ran!

血流得到处都是。那个贼捂着鼻子跑了！

William： He picked the wrong 12-year-old! What a great story!

威廉： 他找到这个12岁的少年可是找错人了！这个故事真棒！

Robert： Yeah, well, Dad. I want to learn karate now.

罗伯特：是的。对了，爸爸，我现在想学空手道。

William： I can understand that, Robert. But I don't want you to get into fights. What will your mother say?

威廉：我能理解你的想法，罗伯特。但是我不想让你卷入打斗中。你妈妈会怎么说呢？

Robert： That's the question, Dad. I'd like you to ask her.

罗伯特：问题就在这儿，爸爸。 我想让你去问她。
