【话匣子英语】小孩子的游戏

加拿大冬天下那么大的雪，人们是怎么出行的呢，小孩子又有什么新的游戏呢

 Sample transcript¹

 

Harp²: You know something funny that I saw one day in the winter last year, I saw a woman with a stroller and it had skis on it.

Maura: I saw that too.

Harp: Yeah, because we have so much snow in the winter that if you have wheels on a stroller, you’re gonna be stuck. So she had skis and she was just floating along, on top of the snow.

Maura: I thought that was so awesome³ when I saw that.

Harp: Genius!

Maura: Yes, and definitely necessary on the streets in Canada.
