A(参加者 · Participant): 我在家照顾我妈妈,这算工作吗? "I care for my mom at home — does that count as a job?"
B(CSC): 您现在已经在照顾家里的老人,IHSS 可能会付钱给你。 "You're already caring for an elder — IHSS may pay you for it."
A: 真的吗?要怎么开始? "Really? How do I start?"
B: 您母亲先申请 IHSS,合格后可以选您当护理员。每小时约 $18.50,需要工作授权 — CSC 帮您填表。 "Your mom applies first; once approved she can pick you. ~$18.50/hr, needs work authorization — CSC helps with the form."
练习 Practice: 两人一组,先用中文读一遍,再用英文读一遍。换角色再来。 Pair up, read it once in Chinese and once in English, then switch roles.
