[ — Audio description, listen and read along for greater understanding. — ]

Eu sou pequeno, me dizem,
e eu fico muito zangado. 😠
Tenho de olhar todo mundo
com o queixo levantado.

e me visse lá do chão,
ia dizer, com certeza:
— Minha nossa, que grandão!

大家晚上好啊，我是丹霞。您现在收听的是中文台词频道，今天的台词出自电影《后来的我们》，由周冬雨和井柏然主演。

"能在北京生活对我来说一直是一个梦，在北京 好像每天都能遇到新鲜事儿，遇上有趣的人，所有的梦想都能实现。虽然挣的钱不多，空气和水也没有家乡的好，但是我得试过了 才甘愿回到小城市，去过结婚生子、柴米油盐、平淡的下半生，我一定得坚持下去，北京，谁怕谁!" 
   ——电影《后来的我们》/<Us and Them>
