1--Mom, what were movies like when you were a kid?
2--Everything about them was different, even the theaters.
1--I'm really interested. Tell me about them.
2--Well, where I grew up, we saw movies at a drive-in theater in our car with the whole family.
1--That's cool. I bet you could bring your own food.
2--We did. On hot days, we'd take a blanket and lay in the back of dad's old pickup to watch the movie.
1--Why don't we do that anymore?
2--Well, the weather might have some influence, during bad weather the theater didn't make a whole lot.

1--妈,你小时候电影是什么样子?
2--所有事情都和现在不一样,甚至是电影院。
1--我很感兴趣,多给我讲讲。
2--嗯,我长大的地方,经常是一家人开车到露天戏院,坐在车子上看的。
1--真酷,我想你可以自己带食物吧。
2--没错。天气热的时候,我们会带条毯子,躺在父亲的老货车上看电影。
1--为什么现在没人这样做了?
2--嗯,这和天气可能有些关系,天气不好时,就没有人会去看电影了。
