(单词翻译)

 William: There must have been some things which, you know, when you were living here, you thought "Well this isn't quite as good as at home"... Joe: Sure. The first and foremost1 is the weather. I lived here for about ten months and during that time there was only a handful of days with sunshine. William: Just a handful of days. Like ten days or so? Joe: No, it was maybe a month total. And I grew up in Southern California where there's maybe only ten days a year where it's raining or gloomy2. So that was the biggest difference and that was challenging but I learned to, learned to adapt. And probably yeah, the cost of things. I missed being able to go out and have a meal and hardly spend any money because it seemed like everything cost just a little bit more, so those were probably two major differences.
