武汉是我去过最大的城市我叫梅根·梦露 。 我来到中国已经98天了 ， 其中56天在隔离 ， 其余42天我都可以自由行动 。
My name is Megan Monroe. And I have been in China for 98 days. We've been quarantined for 56 of those days, and I’ve been free for 42 of those days.
我的公司叫Pro-Stage 。 我在这里是想给孩子们做好榜样 ， 将来打算成为戏剧、舞蹈和公共演讲方面的教师 。 我们之前是与孩子一对一教学的 ， 现在都是在线教学了 。
I am part of a company called Pro-Stage. And I am over here so that I can be a good role model for kids and eventually become a theater, dance and public speech teacher.We got to work with the kids one on one and in person before. And now we've been working with students online.
我讲讲自己来做什么吧 ， 去年10月左右 ， 有人给我打电话 ， 问我想不想去剧团做艺术顾问 。 我问在哪 ， 她说在中国 。 我在加州生活 ， 从没出过国 ， 我就答应了 ， 来到了中国 。
I'm going to tell you about what I'm doing here. I got a phone call around October of last year, 2019, asking me if I wanted to be an artistic adviser for a theatre company. When I asked the location, she said China. And being in California and never have going abroad before, I said, okay, sure. And here I am.
武汉是我去过最大的城市 ， 我的故乡只有30万人口 ， 武汉则有1130万 。
Wuhan is the biggest city that I have ever been in. My hometown had 300,000 people in it, and Wuhan is home to 11.3 million people.
武汉还有160多个湖泊 ， 我住的公寓刚好在三角湖旁 ， 就是三角形的湖 。
There are over 160 lakes in Wuhan. And my apartment building just so happens to sit next to the Sanjiaohu, which is the triangle or Delta lake.
武汉的高楼大厦 ， 我之前从没见过 。 我现在住在10层 ， 公寓共30层 ， 我之前的家都只有一层 。 这里住的公寓和家里的房子 ， 比起来还是很不一样的 。
I haven't seen buildings as big as the ones in Wuhan in my entire life. I currently live in a 30-story building on the 10th floor. And my entire life I lived in a single-story house. So it's a little bit different for me to be in an apartment than being in my home.
现在很庆幸当时没回美国刚开始隔离的时候 ， 我和北京的美国大使馆联系 ， 他们过了几天打给我 ， 说可以帮我回国 ， 暂时离开这里 。
In the beginning of the quarantine, I got in contact with the U.S. embassy that's located in Beijing. And they called me back after a few days, saying that they could help me with departure assistance, so that I could get out of here.
但是 ， 我要向美国缴纳1100美元 ， 就是7700元 ， 才能坐飞机离开 ， 再去那边隔离14天 。
