Mom: Put on these pants and this shirt, come over here, and stand still. I need to alter your brother’s clothes to fit you.
    媽媽：穿上這件褲子和襯衫， 過來，站好。你哥哥的衣服，得給你改改，你才能穿。
    Sa’ad: Oh, Mom!
    Sa’ad：哦，媽媽!
    Mom: Hurry up. I need to let down the hems and take up the sleeves. I don’t think I have to take in the pant legs, but I might have to let out the waist a little.
    媽媽：快點(diǎn)。我得把側(cè)邊改小點(diǎn)，把袖子改短點(diǎn)，褲腿不用改短，褲腰得改小點(diǎn)。
    Sa’ad: Ouch!
    Sa’ad：哎呀!
    Mom: Sorry, but you need to stop moving around or your hem will be uneven and your seams will be crooked. You and your brothers are growing so fast I feel like a full-time tailor!
    媽媽：抱歉，你別亂動了。再動這個(gè)褶邊就不平了， 針腳就彎彎曲曲的了。你和你哥哥長得太快了，我覺得我就像是一個(gè)全職裁縫。
    Sa’ad: Are we done?
    Sa’ad：弄好了嗎?
    Mom: No, we’re not. Stay right there. You can help me iron a crease into this shirt before I put it through the sewing machine.
    媽媽：沒有，還沒，在這兒待著。你幫我把襯衫上的褶皺熨平了，待會我要用縫紉把衣服縫好。
    Sa’ad: Oh, Mom!
    Sa’ad：哎呀，媽媽!
    Mom: Don’t “Oh, Mom” me. This machine doesn’t seem to be working. I hope I don’t have to stitch all these by hand.
    媽媽：別老是這么叫我?？p紉機(jī)好像不管用了，可別讓我用手縫完啊。
