A: Oh, George, what a beautiful day it is today! The sun is hot and there are just a few clouds scattered here and there! What a perfect day to be at the beach! The kids are going to have so much fun! And well be able to relax in the sun while theyre playing.
B: It does seem like the perfect day! Im glad we chose to get out of the city and enjoy the nice weather! This looks like the perfect spot! Ok kids, put on your sunscreen while your mom and I set up camp. Here, Mary, help me lay down these beach towels.
A: There we go. Can you help me with the umbrella? Perfect.
B: Ok kids, heresa beach ball and a Frisbee, a pail and a shovel. I want to see an impressive sandcastle by the time we leave. Dont stray too far. Wait! Leave your sandals here or put on your wet shoes.
A: And stay in the shallow area. I dont want to see you go any farther than that sandbar! Its too deep out there and we didnt bring your floaties.
B: Youre back already? The water was too cold, huh? Ill tell you a secret. Do you see that small pool of water over there? Itll be warmer in there. Go see if you can find some seashells or catch some minnows.
A: What is that? A jellyfish? Jeremy, put that down right now! It could sting you!
B: Ah! Not on me! Ow!

A: 乔治，多好的天啊！阳光充足，只有的散落的云。这是去海滩的好日子。孩子们会有不少乐趣。当他们玩时，大家也能晒下阳光放松下。
B: 看起来确实是个晴天。我非常高兴大家选择住在城外并能享遭到好天气。这儿看起来是个完美的地方。孩子们，涂些防晒油，你们的母亲和我搭建帐篷。玛丽，过来，帮我将这类海滩手巾放好。
A: 大家走了，你能帮我弄下太阳伞吗？太好了。
B: 孩子们，这有沙滩球和飞盘，提桶和铲子。当大家离开时，我想看到一个让人印象深刻的沙堡。不要走得太远。等下，将你们的凉鞋留在这儿，床上你们的湿鞋。
A: 呆在水浅出，你们最远不要超越那个沙洲。那里太深了，而且大家没将你们的救生圈带来。
B: 你们已经回来了？水太凉了？我会对你说们一个秘密。你看见那边的小水塘了吗？那儿会暖和些。去看你们能否找到海贝或捉到一些小鱼。
A: 那是什么？海蜇？Jeremy,快把它放手，它可能蜇你。
B: 别放在我身上。啊！
