凯西：这里的夏天真是宜人！一点也不热。我喜欢凉凉的微风、清净的空气，和这片绿意盎然的大地。
E:This really has been a wonderful holiday for us. Shall we take a walk around the pond? Or into those woods for a while?

K:Let's do both! Are we in a rush or anything?
凯西：咱们两件事都做好了！我们要赶时间还是什么吗？

K:I see them! Wow! How do you know they're wild?

E:I used to go hunting with my uncle; that's how.
艾凡：我以前曾和我叔叔去打猎，所以我知道。
