Billは隣人のJoeと犬について話しをしています。

Bill: Recently I’ve had dogs coming out my ears and boy it’s a hairy business.
最近我が家は犬だらけで、まあ難しいビジネスだよ。

Joe: What brought this about? Because don’t you only have a couple of fur babies.
どうしてそうなったの？お前のところには犬は２匹だろう。（２～３匹でも訳としては大丈夫です）

Bill: I do but my daughter is a dog trainer and she drags these guys to our house.
そうだよ、でも娘がドックトレナーでトレーニングしている犬をうちに連れてくるんだよ。

Joe: Aren’t you worried about getting bitten because they have no clue who you are.
噛みつかれたりする心配はないの？犬達はお前が誰だか分からないんだから。

Bill: Once in a while but overall, I’ve been lucky. I guess I better knock on wood.
たまにはあるけど、まあラッキーだったと思うよ。今後噛まれたりしないように木を叩かないと。

Joe: Well, don’t go to sleep or one might be in your face.
寝ちゃったりしたらダメだよ、犬が攻撃的になってくるかもよ。

【今回の課題】★★★★

Billは友人のBobに風邪を引いたことについて話しています。

Bill: Man, I really let my wife down and it really pissed me off but there was not a freakin thing I could do.

Bob: What the heck happened? You are always on top of your game.

Bill: Well, it was a four day-holiday and what happened was I woke up sick. And it has stuck around like a friend you want to just go home but don’t leave.

Bob: What a bummer I guess she was ok with that, right?

Bill: I guess, but I still feel like a dog so I will just have to make it up to her with any luck soon.
