Lesson 103
The French test
法语考试
Listen to the tape then answer this question. How long did the exam last?
听录音,然后回答问题。 考试持续了多长时间?
GARY: How was the exam, Richard?
RICHARD: Not too bad. I think I passed in English and Mathematics. The questions were very easy. How about you, Gary?
GARY: The English and Maths papers weren't easy enough for me. I hope I haven't failed.
RICHARD: I think I failed the French paper. I could answer sixteen of the question. They were very easy. But I couldn't answer the rest. They were too difficult for me.
GARY: French test are awful, aren't they?
RICHARD: I hate them. I'm sure I've got a low mark.
GARY: Oh, cheer up! perhaps we didn't to do badly. The guy next to me Wrote his name at the top of the paper.
RICHARD: Yes?
GARY: Then he sat there and looked at it for three hours! He didn't write a word!
参考译文:
加里:考试考得怎样,理查德?
理查德:不算太坏,我想我的英语和数学及格了。题目很容易。加里,你怎么样?
加里:英语和数学试题对我来说不很容易。我希望别不及格。
理查德:我想我的法语及不了格,我能回答其中的16道题。这些题很容易。但我回答不出其作的题。那些题对我来说太难了。
加里:法语太可怕了,你说呢?
理查德:我讨厌法语。我的法语成绩肯定很低。
加里:啊,别灰心!或许我们考得还不太糟。坐在我旁边的那个人只在试卷顶端写自己的名字。
理查德:是吗?
加里:然后他就坐在那里,对着考卷看了3个小时,一个字也没写!
