DIALOGUE 45
I Intend to Go to University
1--You've just left school, haven't you, Sheila?
2--Yes, I finished last Friday.
1--You sound relieved.
2--Well, yes. I don't mind admitting that I am. I
enjoyed school. But I did object to having to go
in every day once we've done all our exams.
1--Well, what are you going to do now? Have you
made any plans?
2--Yes, I intend to go to university. That will be
in September. But it all depends on my A level
results.
1--You mean getting into university actually depends
on your passing your A level subjects, does it?
2--Oh, yes.
===================================
注解:
1)sound relieved是系表結(jié)構(gòu)。sound與you look
happy一句中的look一樣起系動詞的作用。relieved是
過去分詞作表語。
2)object to:反對,不贊成。
3)depend on:依靠;取決于。
4)A level=Advanced level
===================================
譯文:
1--你剛離開學(xué)校,是嗎,希拉?
2--是的,上星期五我剛畢業(yè)。
1--你聽起來輕松多了。
2--是的,我不在乎說我輕松了。我樂意上學(xué),但是我
確實不贊成考完試了還得去上學(xué)。
1--那么,現(xiàn)在你打算干什么?你有什么計劃嗎?
2--是的,我打算上大學(xué)。那是9月份的事。但是那
要看我的A級考試成績?nèi)绾瘟恕?/p>
1--你是說,上大學(xué)實際上要看你A級考試科目的成績,
是這樣嗎?
2--噢,是的。
