We spend so much of our lives with our parents and yet most of it is devoted to routine and commonplace things.

我们大多数时间都与父母生活在一起，但是这些时间常被琐事虚度掉了。

Time is short and unfortunately we are all getting older. There may never be a better time than now to have a meaningful conversation with your parent or parents.

生命苦短，我们都在不断老去。现在正是时候与父母敞开心扉，来一场意味深长的谈话。

You sometimes hear people say that they regret missed opportunities while their parents were alive and that there were things they wish they had spoken about. Make sure that you seize the chance while you can.

你不时听到别人说，自己有多么后悔没有在父母在世的时候与他们多说说话。现在你有这个机会，一定不能留下遗憾。

1. Can you tell me a story about your parents or grandparents?

跟我说说你们的父母或者祖父母的故事吧?

Family history is much more than a family tree and a photo album. It is also a collection of stories which become your family folklore. Be sure to have some stories about your ancestors that you can pass on to your descendants.

家族史不仅仅是一张族谱和一本家庭相册那么简单。它还包括家族中发生的各种奇闻异事。知道一点关于你家祖先的故事，以后也可以讲给你的后人听。
