High and Low Voice

“Can you explain to me what the difference is between a high-pitched and low-pitched voice?”

“A high-pitched voice is when my father scolds me；a low-pitched voice is when my father speaks with his boss.”

高音和低音

“你能解释一下高音和低音的区别吗？”

“高音就是我父亲责备我的时候，低音就是我父亲对他老板说话的时候。”

Notes

(1)high-pitched、low-pitched:这里的pitch意为“音调、音域”。pitch的常用意思是“沥青”，如：Touch pitch, and you will be defiled.近朱者赤，近墨者黑。

(2)scolds:动词原型为scold，意为“责备”。
