（单词翻译）

 　　Ruth: So, Akane, tell me about your family. Who do you get on well with in your family?

　　Akane: Well, I think I get along the best with my mother, I would say.
　　Ruth: So, why is that?
　　Akane: Well, I think it probably has to do with the fact that we're both female1. I mean the only other
　　people in my family are my father and my brother.
　　Ruth: So, what does your mom look like?
　　Akane: Well, she's actually taller than me. She has dark hair and a pretty firm2 build.
　　Um, she's not too thin and not too fat, and yeah!
　　Ruth: And what does you mom do? Does she have a job?
　　Akane: Oh, good question. She's actually a hair dresser. (Wow) Yeah, so she does my hair and
　　she's also an aesthetician as well so I get free skin care products from her.
　　Ruth: Oh, that's fantastic.
　　Akane: Yeah.
　　Ruth: So what does your mom like to do when she is not working?
　　Akane: Well, she used3 to take sewing5 lessons, so she really likes to sew4 things like her own curtains6
　　and she even made me some clothes a few times.
　　Ruth: Wow, so she's talented.
　　Akane: Yeah, she's quite artistic7.
　　Ruth: So when did you last see your mom or speak to your mom?
　　Akane: Well, the last time I saw her was this spring. I stayed at my parents house for about a week and,
　　yeah, that's when I saw her.
　　Ruth: Was that a couple of months ago?
　　Akane: Yeah, a couple of months ago, that's right.
　　Ruth: And what was the last thing your mom bought for you?
　　Akane: Actually, just before I came here, we went shopping together and because I have to fly away
　　to a new country she bought me some new clothes. She bought me a new coat actually.
　　Ruth: Wow, that's really nice. Well, thanks for that Akane.
　　Akane: Thanks.
