Joey loves being with Grandma and it’s always a fun time when he visits her. Today is Grandma’s 85th birthday and Joey’s family are all busy.
“I’m giving her a picture,” says Brian. “I took it with my new camera (照相机). What are you going to give her?” he asks his brother Joey.
“I don’t know,” says Joey. “I don’t have a camera. So I can’t take a picture.”
Joey goes into the kitchen. His mom is busy making something delicious. “Mom, what are you giving Grandma?”
“I’m making her favorite cake,” says Joey’s mom.
“I can’t make cakes. I don’t know how,” says Joey.
Joey goes to his sister’s room. She is busy knitting (编织). “Susan, what are you giving Grandma?"
“I`m making her a warm sweater. She’ll love it!” says Susan.
“I can’t knit sweaters. I don’t know how,” says Joey.
Joey then goes and sits next to Grandma on the sofa. “Everyone has a gift for you, but me. I don’t have anything to give you,” says Joey.
Grandma puts her arm around Joey. “Only you have the time to come and sit with me. That’s what you can give me,” says Grandma.
Joey snuggles (依偎) in close to Grandma. “Happy birthday!” he says.
