口语转化表达

我们就我们学习到的词汇和句型,我们来创作一段口语表达。

My Shanghai-born cousin, Rina, shared what she experienced on the telephone during the zero Covid lockdown. At first, she was required to stay home and quarantined for 14 days. She was accustomed to waking up at 5 a.m. to launch grocery-delivery apps, repeatedly pressing refresh to get a delivery slot. How lucky she was to buy some food online and asked Blue Helmets(用蓝色头盔代替饿了吗的外卖小哥) to deliver some to her parents nearby.

我在上海出生的表姐瑞娜在电话里和我分享了她在封锁期间的经历。起初,她被要求呆在家里并隔离14天。她习惯早上5点起床,打开食品杂货配送应用程序,反复按刷新键来获取配送时间。她是多么幸运,能在网上买到一些食物,并让外卖小哥们给她附近的父母送一些食物。

She lived in an old residential area in Yangpu District. She couldn't find a group leader to join the Wechat group for group buying. But instead, both she and her parents tried to mainly live on rice and eggs and some veggies.

她住在杨浦区的一个老住宅区。她找不到团长加入微信团购。但相反,她和她的父母都试图主要靠米饭、鸡蛋和一些蔬菜果腹。

Her parents, my aunt and uncle, even were confined to a small house and what's worse, they couldn't handle mobile apps for food delivery, but they resorted to bartering eggplants for potatoes with their neihgbours.

她的父母,也就是我的姨妈和姨夫,甚至被限制在一个小房子里(自己家),更糟糕的是,他们不会用手机应用程序下单购买食品,但他们只能和邻居们用茄子换土豆。

My 70 year-old uncle joked, “It’s Okay to live with sparse food, but I'm afraid we couldn't even walk after the lockdown.”

我70岁的姨夫开玩笑说:“吃得少还行,但我担心封锁后我们甚至不能走路。”
