聽力原文及翻譯
B: My parents told me that I can't afford to goof around. They want me to be in the top of my class like graduation.
B:我父母告訴我,我不能混日子。他們希望我畢業(yè)時能成為班里最優(yōu)秀的學生。
A: Wow, that's a lot of pressure. But can't you skip studying just this once?
A:哇,壓力好大。但你就不能放下學習玩一次嗎?
B: No, I can't. I Learned my lesson at the beginning of the semester, I put off studying and I bombed my tests. My parents were so mad.
B:不行。學期開始時我就吸取了教訓,我推遲學習,考試不及格。我父母非常生氣。
A: I hate pop quizzes. Their purpose is to catch us off guard, to see if we've been studying. If I don't know a test is coming, I get a low grade on it.
A:我討厭突擊測驗。它們的目的是讓我們措手不及,看看我們是否一直在學習。如果我不知道考試就要到了,我就會得到一個低分。
B: I feel the same way about them! They're enough to keep me on edge every day at school, that's why I prefer scheduled quizzes. Anyway I had to drop out of one of my classes so that I could pull my grade back up.
B:我也這樣覺得!它們足以讓我每天在學校都緊張不安,所以我更喜歡有計劃的測驗。無論如何,我不得不退出其中一門課,這樣我才能把成績拉回來。
A: Really? What class did you drop?
A:真的嗎?你退了什么課?
B: History, it's much better to drop it than failing it or getting a C or D in it. But I'm going to retake it next semester, I'll study more during the Christmas break to catch up.
B:歷史,退掉它比不及格或得到C或D要好得多。但我下學期會重考,我會為了趕上進度在圣誕假期多學習。
A: Well you've become quite a bookworm, you should get an A for effort.
A:天啊,你真的成了一個書呆子,你的努力也該得到一個A了。
B: I hope my teachers agree.
B:希望我的老師們也這么認為。
