在出租车停靠的站点处，妈妈发现广告牌上贴着一张钢琴辅导班的广告宣传，随即抄下了相关内容。丹尼尔在一旁露出了不悦的神情，这是为什么呢？
(Daniel speaks to himself.)
Daniel: That's great! We made 20 minutes earlier.
Mom: Good thing, we took a taxi.
Daniel: Mom, you are the best!
Mom: Hey, look there. It is an advertisement of the piano training class on the billboard. The place is not far from our home.
Daniel: Mom, come on. What are you thinking about?
Mom: Your sister is in high school now; no one plays the piano at home.
Daniel: Don't tell me you want me to do that?
Mom: Why? Why not! The piano is right there.
Daniel: But I don't like playing the piano. And the homework keeps me busy enough.
Mom: Anyway, I will have a look at the piano class after work by myself.
Daniel: How depressed!
（丹尼尔自言自语。）
丹尼尔：太好了！我们早到了20分钟。
妈妈：是啊，幸好我们搭了出租车。
丹尼尔：妈妈，你最棒了！
妈妈：喂，看那里。广告牌上有个钢琴培训班的广告。那个地方离我们家不远。
丹尼尔：妈妈，求你了。你又在想什么呢？
妈妈：你姐姐现在读高中了，家里的钢琴没人弹了。
丹尼尔：不要告诉我你想让我弹。
妈妈：为什么不呢？钢琴就摆在那里呢。
丹尼尔：但是我不喜欢弹钢琴。并且家庭作业已经够我忙了。
妈妈：不管怎样，下班后，我会自己先去看一下那个钢琴培训班。
丹尼尔：真郁闷。
Daniel: Mom always wants me to take different training classes. These days she says I should learn to play the piano. That's really a disaster for me. The homework already keeps me busy enough. My poor little spare time! I am just a little boy!
