I know, it's a bit daunting. How about you take the large pieces and match them to the diagram on page two. I'll sort out all the hardware – the screws, nuts, and bolts – into little piles.

Sounds like a plan. So, these long ones are ‘Part A’, and the short, thin ones are ‘Part B’, got it. Wait, what about these oddly shaped ones? They're not on the first page.

听起来不错。所以，这些长的就是“零件A”，短而细的是“零件B”，明白了。等等，这些形状奇怪的呢？它们不在第一页。

Agreed. I'll grab some small bowls or cups from the kitchen. That always makes it easier. Don't worry, we'll get through this. It's always the sorting that feels the most overwhelming.
