Jose: I was born in Mexico City.
Professor: So Winnie, what does Jose say about Mexican food in America?
他说美国的墨西哥菜不是真正的墨西哥菜。这我有同感,中国菜馆为了迎合美国人的口味,饭菜也都变了味道,怎么吃都觉得不对劲。还是让我们继续听Kevin跟Jose的对话吧。
Kevin: You were born in Mexico City? That's one of the biggest cities in the world. What is it like?
Jose: It's great. There are lots of people and it's very exciting.
Kevin: Wow. I was born and raised in a small town in Ohio.
Jose: What is it like there?
Kevin: The people are very friendly, and the life there is very relaxed.
Professor: Well Winnie, where did Jose and Kevin each grow up?
Jose是在墨西哥城长大的,Kevin则来自俄亥俄州的一个小镇。
Professor: Yes. Kevin said he was "born and raised" in a small town. That means he was born and grew up in the same town.
哦,"Born and raised"就是土生土长的意思。
Professor: Right. You might also hear people say "born and bred."
Kevin: How long have you been in America?
Jose: I've been in America for one year.
Kevin: Where have you been living?
Jose: I've been living with my cousin in a small town in California.
