聽(tīng)力每日練習(xí) listen 694 College Life

 
2--Oh, hey, no kidding! I haven't seen you since orientation three months ago! So how've you been? Settling into college life OK?
 
1--Yeah, I think so! I pledged Phi Iota Alpha, so I'm living at the frat house now.
 
2--Oh, so you're a frat boy now, huh?
 
1--Yeah, yeah, I know, it's totally cliche, but really, I think it's been a good decision. I've got a lot of support and good suggestions from the guys. What about you? What have you been up to?
 
2--Not much. I'm still living at home and commuting to school. I ended up dropping that metalworking class I was so excited about. It just wasn't as interesting as I'd hoped. The guidance counselor suggested that I focus on my prerequisite courses so that I can make sure the credits count.
 
1--That sounds smart... but kind of boring.
 
2--Yeah, it is, a little bit. I joined the Great Outdoors Club, though, which has been a lot of fun. We've gone on two camping trips already, and I've made some good friends.
 
1--That's cool. Hey, so have you decided on your major yet?
 
2--Definitely pre-med. What about you?
 
1--I still have no clue... but we don't have to declare a major till our sophomore year, so I've got time! Oops, I'm late for class. Gotta run!
 
2--OK, take care! Hey, nice running into you!
 
1--Yeah, you too!

1--嘿，喬丹，是你嗎？好久不見(jiàn)！
2--哦，嘿，真的是這樣?。∽詮纳洗畏珠_(kāi)我們已經(jīng)有三個(gè)月沒(méi)見(jiàn)了！你現(xiàn)在好嗎？開(kāi)始你的大學(xué)生活了嗎？
1--是的，我是這么想的！我向ΦIA起誓了，所以我現(xiàn)在住在兄弟會(huì)的房子。
2--哦，你現(xiàn)在是兄弟會(huì)的人了，額？
1--是的，是的，我知道，這完全是陳詞濫調(diào)。但是，我真得覺(jué)得這是一個(gè)好決定。那兒的兄弟們給了我很多很好的建議。你怎么樣了？你后來(lái)做了什么？
2--沒(méi)做太多。我還是住在家里然后往返學(xué)校。我沒(méi)有上我很喜歡的金工課。這可不是我希望的。咨詢顧問(wèn)建議我把注意力放在預(yù)學(xué)課程上，這樣才能確保能拿到學(xué)分。
1--聽(tīng)起來(lái)這樣做是明智的……但是有點(diǎn)無(wú)聊。
2--是的，是有點(diǎn)無(wú)聊。但是我加入了戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)俱樂(lè)部，那里很好玩。我們已經(jīng)去露營(yíng)兩次了，并且結(jié)交了一些好朋友。
1--酷。嘿，你已經(jīng)決定你的專業(yè)了嗎？
2--當(dāng)然是醫(yī)學(xué)預(yù)科。你呢？
1--我還是沒(méi)有頭緒……但是我們直到大二那年才須要定下專業(yè)，所以還有時(shí)間做決定！哎呀，上課快遲到了。得走了！
2--好的，保重！嘿，很高興見(jiàn)到你！
1--是的，你也是！
