Akane: That's right.
茜:没错。
Ruth: Tell me about where you live.
鲁斯:跟我说说你住的地方。
Akane: Well, I grew up in Toronto, and it's quite a big city. In the greater Toronto area 1, there's about, I think3 1/2 million 2 people just now and it's very multicultural 3 and that's one of the things that I really like about Toronto is that there're many different people from many different countries.
茜:我在多伦多长大,那是一个非常大的城市。我想现在大多伦多地区有350万人口,而且那是拥有多元文化的城市,这也是我喜欢多伦多的一点,因为有许多来自不同国家的人。
Ruth: And do you live in Toronto now?
鲁斯:那你现在还住在多伦多吗?
Akane: No, actually 4, I haven't lived there for a year now I think, almost 5, actually more than that, because I've been travelling 7 and working and what not.
茜:实际上不住了,我想我离开那里有一年了,可能比一年的时间还长,因为我一直在四处旅行、工作。
Ruth: Oh, right. What's your job?
鲁斯:哦,好。你做什么工作?
Akane: I'm actually a teacher.
茜:实际上我是一名老师。
Ruth: Do you teach children or adults 8?
鲁斯:你是教孩子还是教成年人?
Akane: Usually I do. I am mostly 9 trained to teach younger 10 children, but recently 11 I've begun teaching 12 older students, or young adults, and I quite enjoy it actually.
茜:通常是这样,我接受的培训主要针对教育小孩子,但是近来我开始教年龄大一些的学生或是年轻人,我非常享受。
Ruth: So which do you prefer 13?
鲁斯:那你更喜欢哪种?
Akane: Well, they both have good parts 14 and bad parts and I think in the future 15 I would 16 like to do a bit 17 of both.
茜:嗯,各有各的好处和坏处,我想以后我会想两者兼做。
Ruth: Do you know where you would like to live in the future?
鲁斯:那你以后想住在哪里呢?
Akane: I have no idea. I would like to travel 6 to different places and maybe I'll eventually 18 settle 19 back down in Toronto, where I'm from.

Ruth: Do you have family in Toronto?
鲁斯:你有家人在多伦多吗?
Akane: Not at the moment, no. My parents moved to Vancouver and that's where they live right now.
茜:现在没有。我父母搬去温哥华了,他们现在就住在那里。
Ruth: Ah 20, Vancouver, is that in Canada was 21 well?
鲁斯:啊,温哥华,那也是加拿大的城市吧?
Akane: That's right. It's on the West Coast 22 of Canada and the weather is much warmer there and that's why my parents like it there.
