这一课的课题叫做《A Private Conversation》。翻译如下:
上星期我去看戏。我找到了一个很好的座位。那出戏很有趣,但我却无法欣赏。一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的后面,大声地说着话。我非常生气。因为我听不见演员在说什么。我转过身来。我怒视着这一男一女,他们却毫不理会。最后我实在无法忍受了,又转过身来。“我一个字也听不见了!”我生气地说。“这不关你的事,”这个男的毫不客气地说,“这是私人间的谈话!”
A Private Conversation
Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. "I can't hear a word!" I said angrily.
"It's none of your business," the young man said rudely. "This is a private conversation!"
