Listen Read Learn

Gucci: I've almost finished today's task. I gotta go home and have a good sleep. Oh, I haven't got enough sleep since the beginning of this semester.

May: Me too. The college entrance exam is coming. We gotta work harder than ever before, if we want to pass.

Gucci: I don't care about the exam. Are you leaving?

May：No, I gotta stay for a few minutes.

Gucci: But it's getting late. The last bus leaves at 9.m. You will miss it if you don't go now.

May: It's alright. My father is coming to pick me up. I have to memorize these math formulas.

Gucci: Your father has been picking you up everyday since the beginning of this semester, right?

May: Yeah, and my mother takes good care of my daily life, making sure that I eat well and sleep well. My parents have really done a lot for my success in the college entrance exam.

Gucci: What university do you want to go to anyway?

May: I want to go to Tsinghua, It's one of the best universities in China. But it's very hard to get in.

Gucci: I believe you can get in! You are so excellent! And your whole families are working together to support you.

May: Gucci, you don't understand. It's just their hope and support that gives me the pressure. Sometimes I do feel tired and hope they could leave me alone. What if I fail?

Gucci: Don't be silly. You put too much pressure on yourself. Look, you have big dark pouches.

May: Oh, my gosh! Does it look serious? I didn't sleep until one o'clock last night.

Gucci: What were you doing up so late at night? Sleep-walking?

May: No, I was studying. I always go to bed after one o'clock recently.

Gucci: May, you are burning yourself out. You really need to relax. Don't give yourself too much pressure. I gotta run or I will miss the bus. Bye!

May: Thank you, Gucci. I will. Bye.

聽看學

古奇: 今天的任務差不多完成了。我得回家好好睡一覺。自從這個學期開始，我就沒有好好睡過覺。

阿美: 我也是。高考馬上就要到了，如果我們想通過的話，我們就必須比平時更加努力。

古奇: 我不在乎這個考試。你現(xiàn)在走嗎？

阿美: 不，我還得等幾分鐘。

古奇: 可是很晚了，末班車晚上9點發(fā)車。你現(xiàn)在不走的話，就會錯過末班車。

阿美: 沒關系，爸爸會來接我的。我得把這些數(shù)學公式背下來。

古奇: 你爸爸是不是從這學期一開始就每天晚上來接你？

阿美: 是的，我媽媽就負責照顧好我的日常生活，確保我吃得好，睡得好。他們?yōu)槲夷軌蛟诟呖贾腥〉贸晒Ω冻隽撕芏唷?br />
古奇: 你想去哪所大學？

阿美: 我想去全國最好的大學清華大學，但是很難考上。

古奇: 我相信你能考上。你這么優(yōu)秀。還有你們全家都在跟你一起并肩作戰(zhàn)。

阿美: 古奇，你不明白。正是他們的希望和支持給了我壓力。有時候，我感到非常疲倦，只想自己一個人好好靜靜。如果我考砸了怎么辦??？

古奇: 別說傻話了。你給自己太多的壓力了?？茨愕暮谘廴?。

阿美: 噢，天吶！看起來很明顯嗎？昨天晚上我到1點鐘才睡。

古奇: 那么晚才睡，你都干嘛了？夢游？

阿美: 沒有，我在學習。最近我總是1點鐘以后才睡覺。

古奇: 阿美，你太累了。你需要好好放松。不要給自己太多的壓力。我得走了，不然我就趕不上末班車了。再見。

阿美: 謝謝你，古奇，我會的。再見。
