DIALOGUE 52

About School

1--How many hours a week do you work, Sue?
2--We have to start at nine o'clock in the morning.
   but I'm always at school by a quarter past eight,
   in fact. Erm, we finish at four o'clock 4 days a
   week, and I usually do go home at four o'clock,
   and I'm usually home by half past four. Wednesday
   afternoon is free, so we finish at twelve o'clock
   on Wednesday.
1--How long have you been intereted in computers, Sue?
2--Interested. I suppose I got interested when I did
   my master's degree.
1--What sort of things do you do with your computer?
2--Well, I use my computer, personally, as a word
   processor, quite a lot, but I also use it for playing
   around creating programs.

===================================
注解：

1）How long have you been interested in computers?
此句直譯：你對計算機感興趣有多長時間了？
2）I got interested in...：got是系動詞，與be interested
相比，前者強調(diào)"action"，后者強調(diào)"state"。
3）master's degree：碩士學(xué)位。大學(xué)授予的學(xué)位分三級，最低
級稱作“學(xué)士”(Bachelor's degree)，中級稱“碩士”，最高級
稱“博士”(Doctor's degree)。
4）sort：種類，類別。與kind同義。
5）word processor：文字處理機。
6）play around creating programs：他在計算機上編制
程序等等只是為了娛樂消遣，并非正經(jīng)的工作，所以才這樣
說。play around作"spend time having fun","to amuse oneself
with..."解。

===================================
譯文：

1--你一個星期工作多少小時，休？
2--我們早上必須9點開始工作。但實際上我總是8點
15分就到學(xué)校了。每個星期有四個下午是4點結(jié)束
工作。所以我經(jīng)常是4點鐘就往家走。4點半鐘到家。星期
三下午沒事，所以我們星期三中午12點就完事了。
1--休，你從什么時間起對計算機感興趣的？
2--我想是從碩士學(xué)位時我就對計算機感興趣。
1--你都用計算機干些什么事？
2--嗬，我自己是用計算機進(jìn)行文字處理，用得很多，
但有時也用計算機編程序取樂。
