Language points
1. My parents don’t allow me to hang out with my friends.
allow作動詞，意為“允許，準許”，常用的結構如下：
allow sb. to do sth. “允許某人做某事”。
allow doing sth. 意為“允許做某事”。
老板不允許我在工作時間使用電話。
My boss doesn’t allow me to use the
telephone during the working hours.
我們不允許在公共場所吸煙。
We don’t allow smoking in public places.
2. Although she’s wrong, it’s not a big deal.
盡管她做的不對，但沒什么大不了的。
(1)big deal 是英語中的一個固定搭配，表示“重要的事情或是狀況”多用于非正式交流，做否定用時，常說 it’s not a big deal. 或it is no big deal.
表示說話人并不認為某事有什么大不了的。
There’s a soccer game on TV this evening but I don’t have to watch it. It’s not a big deal.
(2) although意為“盡管”，較正式，語氣強。
Although he was tired, he went on working.
although引導的從句放在主句前后均可，有時還放在句中。
He often helps me with my English although he is quite busy. 盡管他相當忙，但是還常常幫我學英語。
although引導的從句不能與but, however連用，但與yet, still連用。
2. Hope things work out. 希望事情會好起來。
這是一種常見的表達法，表示某些不如人意的事情會隨著時間的推移逐漸有所改變。句中work out為動詞短語，表示“解決（問題）；改善（狀況）”之意。e.g.
Don’t worry. Things will work out.
別擔心，事情會慢慢解決的。
3. They fight a lot, and I don’t really like it.
他們經常吵架，我真的不喜歡這樣。
此處“fight ” 為“吵架，爭吵”
Although they just got married, they’re fighting almost every day.
fight 另有“打架”之意。
My little brothers are always fighting.
As kids, we always fight for toys in the kindergarten, but now we’re pretty good friends.
