聽力每日練習(xí) listen 779 Nationality

1--Hey! How was your first day of class? I’m in level two and I’m loving my class this semester! It’s great being in a class of international students!
 
2--Mine was ok, except that no one in my class speaks English. I guess it will force me to converse in Chinese more in class so at least I should improve a lot this semester.
 
1--That’s both fortunate and unfortunate. It’s the United Nations in my class! We have people from all over the world! There are three Germans, a Pole, a Scottish, two French, an American, a Brazilian, a Chilean, a New Zealander, though he prefers to call himself a Kiwi. Who else do we have? Oh, we also have a Moroccan, a Togolese, a Pakistani, and two Indonesians!
 
2--That’s quite the array of nationalities. Everyone in my class is from Asia, except me. There are a few South Koreans, several Japanese, Malaysian, Thai, Singaporean, Filipino, Kazakhstani, and one Russian.
 
1--Well, I think you’re pretty lucky actually. You’ll have the opportunity to learn so much about Asian culture.
 
2--I guess so, but I think it’s going to be hard to relate to my classmates, especially with the language barrier. I think I might change classes.
 
1--Don’t! Stay the course! Your spoken Chinese will be eternally grateful. I bet you it will even surpass mine with all that practice.
 
2--I highly doubt it. Your girlfriend is Chinese.
 
1--Well, there is that, yes.

1--嘿！上學(xué)第一天怎么樣？我在第2年級，我喜歡這學(xué)期的課。在一個滿是國際生的班級中感覺很棒。
2--我還可以，就是班里沒人說英語。我想那會迫使我在課堂上多用中文交流，至少這學(xué)期我會大幅度提高中文水平。
1--那既是幸運(yùn)的又是不幸的。我們班就是個小聯(lián)合國。學(xué)生來自全世界各地。有3個希臘人，1個波蘭人，1個英國人，2個法國人，1個美國，1個巴西人,1個智利人，1個新西蘭人。盡管他更愿稱自己是Kiwi人。還有別國得人嗎？還有1個摩洛哥人，1個多哥人，1個巴基斯坦人，2個印尼人。
2--有這么多國籍。我們班的每個人除了我都來自亞洲，有些韓國人，一些日本人，還有馬來西亞人，泰國人，新加坡人，菲律賓人，哈薩克斯坦人，以及一個俄國人。
1--我認(rèn)為你很幸運(yùn)。你有機(jī)會來學(xué)習(xí)亞洲的文化。
2--我也這么想，但我想和同學(xué)們交流有點難度，尤其是有語言障礙。我想我得換班。
1--別。要堅持到最后。你說漢語的口語能力最終一定很強(qiáng)。我打賭在如此多的練習(xí)下你會超過我的漢語水平。
2--我對此很懷疑。你女朋友是中國人。
1--確實是。
