前幾天，我接到了一個(gè)外國朋友在澳大利亞的電話。我們通話了近40分鐘，但由于我在英語學(xué)習(xí)上中斷了三個(gè)月，我的聽力明顯退步了，只能聽懂大約三分之一的內(nèi)容。于是我向?qū)Ψ教嶙h，我們可以通過郵件來溝通，因?yàn)檫@樣的好處是我們可以使用微信的翻譯功能，自由切換中英文。

首先打開微信應(yīng)用，在主界面點(diǎn)擊“我”選項(xiàng)，然后選擇“設(shè)置”。接下來，在設(shè)置界面中選擇“通用”選項(xiàng)，然后再選擇“多語言”。在多語言選項(xiàng)中，選擇“English”作為語言，并點(diǎn)擊保存以應(yīng)用更改。

在聊天界面中，您可以發(fā)送中文消息。如果您想將消息轉(zhuǎn)換成英文，只需長按該消息，然后在彈出的框中選擇"Translate"選項(xiàng)即可。這樣，您發(fā)送的消息就會(huì)被轉(zhuǎn)換成英文。

我按照這個(gè)步驟進(jìn)行操作，真的很出色。以下是信件的內(nèi)容及翻譯：

親愛的朋友，

我希望這封信能夠找到你時(shí)，你正處于最好的狀態(tài)。我想告訴你，我按照你給我的步驟進(jìn)行操作，結(jié)果非常出色。我感到非常自豪和滿足。

首先，我按照你的建議進(jìn)行了詳細(xì)的計(jì)劃。我仔細(xì)考慮了每一步，并確保沒有遺漏任何細(xì)節(jié)。這讓我感到非常有信心，因?yàn)槲抑牢以谡_的軌道上。

接下來，我開始逐步執(zhí)行計(jì)劃。我按照你的指導(dǎo)，一步一步地完成了每個(gè)任務(wù)。我遇到了一些挑戰(zhàn)，但我堅(jiān)持下來，并找到了解決問題的方法。這讓我感到非常興奮和滿足。

最后，我完成了整個(gè)過程，并取得了令人矚目的成果。我感到非常自豪，因?yàn)槲抑肋@是我自己的努力和堅(jiān)持的結(jié)果。我真的很感謝你給我的建議和指導(dǎo)，沒有你的幫助，我不會(huì)取得這樣的成就。

再次感謝你的支持和鼓勵(lì)。我希望我們能繼續(xù)保持聯(lián)系，并分享彼此的進(jìn)展。祝你一切順利，期待很快能夠見到你。

衷心的問候，

Hi Wang Qin,

I'm pleased to receive your email. Yesterday, I had a conversation with your daughter regarding you and the letter. I truly appreciate your punctuality and commitment to your word. Therefore, I would like to express my gratitude. I wanted to inquire about the appropriate way to address you. In our culture, it is customary to not address our elders by their names. Hence, I am curious to learn about Chinese culture and the appropriate form of address.

The exact date for the border opening in Australia has not been confirmed yet. However, there are indications that international students may be given priority to enter the country. While the specific timeline remains uncertain, it is possible that this could occur in early 2022, potentially in January or February.

Please don't feel embarrassed if you had difficulty speaking English to me. It's just a language that can be learned with practice.

After a period of 2 to 3 years, I am planning to visit China to meet your entire family and explore the beautiful country. In the meantime, I hope that both you and Ruizi can assist me in learning the Chinese language, so that I can at least manage to speak some basic Mandarin, even if it's just broken sentences.

DARWIN is known for its high level of safety against viruses, to the extent that wearing masks when going outside is not a common practice. Life in this city remains relatively unaffected, with a sense of normalcy prevailing. Currently, there are no active cases of the virus reported in the Northern Territory.

Looking forward to hearing from you. Stay well.

Regards,

Dear recipient,

I am writing to you on Saturday, July 25th, 2020 at 12:43 pm. My name is 縹緲 and my email address is 411987841@qq.com.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
縹緲

Hello, my name is Wang Qin. I recently experienced an embarrassing situation where I took a three-month break from studying English and ended up regressing in my language skills. I apologize for not fully understanding what you said.

I requested my daughter's help to obtain your email address. She suggested using WeChat for translation, which is a more convenient option.

How is the situation with the epidemic in Australia? Are you doing okay? I remember you mentioning that Australia lifted its restrictions in January, is that still the case? I'm currently on vacation and will be returning to school on August 28th. Are you still occupied with work? How's everything going in your life?

Sagittarius, if you have a bread machine at home, you can also use it to make steamed eggs. It's a convenient way to prepare this dish, and the result is equally delicious.

After our last conversation, I made the decision to resume my English learning journey. I thought it would be great if we could both make progress together by learning each other's languages. Would you be interested in learning Chinese?

In the future, I often contact with you to learn English, I hope my English can have rapid progress。

Happy, happy.

Wangqin

嗨，王琴，

我很高興收到你的電子郵件。昨天我和你的女兒談到了你提到的事情，我很高興你按時(shí)履行了你的承諾。因此，我想對此表示非常感謝。在我們的文化中，我們通常不直接稱呼長輩的名字，所以我想了解一下中國文化，我應(yīng)該怎么稱呼你呢？

關(guān)于1月邊境開放的消息尚未得到確認(rèn)，但有跡象表明澳大利亞可能會(huì)優(yōu)先允許國際學(xué)生入境。雖然具體時(shí)間尚不確定，但可能會(huì)在明年的1月或2月實(shí)施。

請不要因?yàn)槟阍谑褂糜⒄Z時(shí)遇到困難而感到尷尬，畢竟學(xué)習(xí)一門語言需要時(shí)間和努力，而英語只是其中之一。

我計(jì)劃在未來的2到3年內(nèi)來中國，希望能見到你們?nèi)?，并且在中國旅游一番。在此之前，我希望你和瑞子能夠教我中文，這樣我至少能夠說一些簡單的句子哈哈。

在病毒方面，DARWIN非常安全，以至于我們在離開家時(shí)甚至不需要戴口罩。這里的生活非常正常，北領(lǐng)地目前沒有任何活躍的病毒病例。

期待收到您的回復(fù)。保持警惕。

問候

周六，2020年7月25日，下午12：43時(shí)，我收到了一封來自[411987841@qq.com]的郵件。

你好，我是王琴。上次不好意思的時(shí)候，我休息了三個(gè)月的英語課，我退縮了。對不起，我沒聽懂你說的話。

我想問一下您的電子郵件地址，我可以通過微信翻譯來進(jìn)行溝通，這樣會(huì)更方便一些。

澳大利亞的流行病怎么樣？你沒事吧？你說澳大利亞在一月份被解封了， 對吧？我正在度假，將于8月28日開始上學(xué)。你還忙于工作嗎？生活怎么樣？

射手座的人通常喜歡嘗試新鮮事物，他們對于廚房里的創(chuàng)意也是充滿了好奇心。因此，他們可能會(huì)在廚房里擁有一臺面包機(jī)，這樣可以方便地制作面包和其他烘焙食品。不僅如此，面包機(jī)還可以用來蒸雞蛋，這對于射手座來說非常方便。他們可以輕松地在早餐或者快餐時(shí)間制作出美味的蒸雞蛋。射手座的人喜歡享受美食，他們會(huì)盡可能地嘗試各種不同的食物，以滿足他們對于美食的追求。因此，無論是面包還是蒸雞蛋，射手座的人都會(huì)盡可能地制作出美味可口的食物。

上次你打電話時(shí)，我決定重新開始學(xué)習(xí)英語。你有興趣學(xué)習(xí)一些中文嗎？我們可以一起進(jìn)步。

未來，我會(huì)經(jīng)常與你保持聯(lián)系，以便能夠更好地學(xué)習(xí)英語。我希望我的英語能夠有顯著的進(jìn)步。

開心，開心。

王琴

我認(rèn)為微信翻譯功能很方便，但自己學(xué)習(xí)翻譯更有價(jià)值。因此，我堅(jiān)持每天學(xué)習(xí)一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)，不斷提升自己的翻譯能力。
