Albert: How old were you then?
艾尔伯特: 那时你多大?
Anna: Let me think,16 years old.
安娜: 让我想想，16岁。
Albert: Wow,it's allowed to have a license at the age of 16 in the U.S?
艾尔伯特: 哇，在美国16岁就可以拿到驾照了?
Anna: Yeah. And almost every American over 16 has a driver's license. It works just like an ID card.
安娜: 是的。几乎每个16岁以上的美国人都有驾照。它就像身份证一样有用。

Anna: Yep,life is indeed much easier for one who can drive.
安娜: 是的，会开车的人的生活确实容易得多。
Albert: Oh really? No wander my life has been so hard all these years!
艾尔伯特: 哦,真的吗? 难怪这些年我的生活这么艰难!
Anna: Haha...but,why didn't you get one when you're in college? I mean,you'd have plenty of time when you were a student.
安娜: 哈哈……但是，你上大学的时候为什么没有考一个呢? 我是说，当你还是学生的时候，你有很多时间。

Anna: Aww,that's horrible...Anyway,driving is a skill one must master in modern life.
安娜: 噢, 那是可怕的…无论如何，开车是一个人在现代生活中必须掌握的技能。
Albert: Yeah,can't argue with that. After I get my license,I would want to buy a car. But that means I'll have to work extra hard to save more money.
艾尔伯特: 是啊，这是无可争议的。拿到驾照后，我想买辆车。但是，这就意味着我得加倍努力工作来存更多的钱。
