少兒英語雙語故事：一封給父親的信少兒英語雙語故事：一封給父親的信

DearDad,

親愛的爸爸，

TodayIwasattheshoppingmallandIspentalotoftimereadingtheFather’sDaycards.TheyallhadaspecialmessagethatinsomewayoranotherreflectedhowIfeelaboutyou.YetasIselectedandread,andselectedandreadagain,itoccurredtomethatnotasinglecardsaidwhatIreallywanttosaytoyou.

今日我在商場花了很長時間閱讀那些寫滿父親節(jié)寄語的卡片。那些卡片上面的文字很特殊，也或多或少地表達(dá)出了我對您的感受。但當(dāng)我反復(fù)選擇閱讀時，我發(fā)覺沒有一張卡片能明確表達(dá)我想對您說的話。

You’llsoonbe84yearsold,Dad,andyouandIwillhavehad55Father’sDaystogether.Ihaven’talwaysbeenwithyouonFather’sDaynorhaveIbeenwithyouforallofyourbirthdays.Itwasn’tbecauseIdidn’twanttobewithyou.I’vealwaysbeenwithyouinmyheartbutsometimeslifegetsintheway.

爸爸，您很快就84歲了，并且我和您將共度第55個父親節(jié)。無論父親節(jié)還是您的生日，我并非總是陪在您身邊。而這并不是由于我不想陪伴您。我的心始終在您身畔，可奈何人生世事變幻。

Youknow,Dad,therewasatimewhenwewerenotonlyseparatedbythegenerationgapbutcompletelypolarizedbyit.YoustoodononesideoftheGreatDivideandIontheother,fatheranddaughtersplitapartbyageandexperience,opinions,hairstyles,cosmetics,clothing,curfews,music,andboys.

爸爸，您知道的，有段時間我們完全被時代代溝阻隔。您站在溝壑一邊，而我在另一邊。父女生生被年齡、閱歷、意見、發(fā)式、化裝、服飾、晚歸、音樂和男友等因素分開。

那時，您教我開那部道奇舊車，可我卻不顧您是否同意執(zhí)意要開那輛雪佛蘭54，也由此，我們的爭吵開頭白熱化。您報警說雪佛蘭車被盜的那晚，
