珍妮：对，我给其他人看他的照片。他有个同卵孪生兄弟，我把他们的照片拿给别人看，他们会说：“哇，他们真年轻。那不可能是你爸爸”，我会说“对，那就是我爸爸。”

Todd: Well, why do twins do that? Why do they often where the same clothes?
托德：为什么双胞胎会这样？他们为什么会经常穿一样的衣服？
Jeanie: Well, I don't know. For my dad it's always been a thing of, they like to make a big impression on people so they always want to dress in the best suits. They always got to look flashy, so that when they go out, they're like the show stoppers, and they happen to look exactly like the twins from a music group called the Whispers.
珍妮：嗯，我也不知道。对我爸爸来说，他们喜欢给别人留下深刻的印象，所以他们总是会穿最好的衣服。他们看上去很华丽，所以他们外出时，他们就像演出终结者，而且凑巧的是他们和组合The Whispers中那对双胞胎很像。
Todd: Oh, no kidding.
托德：哦，开玩笑的吧。
Jeanie: Yeah, so they get lots of people taking their photos and screaming, "Oh, my gosh. It's the Whispers."
珍妮：是这样的，所以有很多人会给他们拍照并尖叫，“哦，我的天哪。是The Whispers。”
Todd: Really.
托德：真的吗？
Jeanie: Yeah. They get a lot of publicity for that.
珍妮：对。他们也因此得到了很多宣传。
Todd: Well, does your father have a good voice? Can they sing?
托德：嗯，你父亲的声音好听吗？他会唱歌吗？
Jeanie: Oh, no, they can't sing for anything. They can pretend to some background music but they can't actually do it.
珍妮：哦不，他们完全不会唱歌。他们可以跟着背景音乐假唱，但不能真唱。
Todd: That's cool. So you dad looks like he's 35. Wow! And who else is in your family?
