Todd: Oh, really. OK. Um, what's your favorite season? 

托德：哦，是吗。那，你最喜欢什么季节？

Shawn: I'd say spring, cause it's a combination of warm weather, at the same time it's not hot like it is in the summer. In spring it's a bit cool. You can walk around very relaxed. It the best. It's a combination of all the seasons in one.

Todd: OK. what's your favorite movie? 

托德：好的。那你最喜欢的电影是什么？

Shawn: My favorite movie! I'd have to say "Gladiator." Russel Crow. It's a tragic¹ movie about a very strong leader who, how-should-I-say, triumphs over, how-should-I-say, over very overpowering conflicts. It's, um, plus, I'm a bit of an action movie buff. I know it's sad to hear but, it's definitely an interesting movie. 

肖恩：我最喜欢的电影！那一定是《角斗士》了。拉塞尔·克劳主演的。那部电影讲述了一名强大领袖的悲剧，要怎么说呢，他战胜了强大的对手。嗯，另外，我热衷于动作电影。我知道这听起来很悲伤，不过那绝对是一部有意思的电影。
