英语大赢家 下册 199.Scene 10.Topic 3校园夜生活School Night Life

 Gucci: So what do you feel like doing this evening? How about going to the cinema?

 

May: Ah, that's a good idea. But I heard the film club of our school would show a film for free. Maybe we don't need to go to the cinema.

 

Gucci: That's good! I've also heard there will be a party held by the Students' Union tomorrow evening. Would you like to go with me tomorrow night?

 

May: I'd like to, but I'm afraid I can't.

 

Gucci: Why? Do you have to prepare for your examination¹? Oh, come on, girl, relaxation² is also very important.

 

May: That's not the reason. I have to go to the English Corner tomorrow evening. You know, I've been going there every week.

 

Gucci: Oh, God, I've forgotten it.

 

May: You said you wanted to improve your English, so how about coming with me tomorrow? I can also introduce some friends to you.

 

Gucci: Oh, no, I don't want to know any more geeks like you.

 

May: They are not geeks. They are also interested in singing, dancing, and so on. They are excellent, and they can always help me a lot.

 

Gucci: Really? Is there a foreign teacher for every class?

 

May: It depends. If they are not busy, they will come to join us, and talk with us.

 

Gucci: So you just talk all the time?

 

May: Of course not. The foreign teachers also teach us English songs, and play games with us.

 

Gucci: That sounds interesting. I'll go with you tomorrow evening.

 

May: You won't be disappointed³.

 

听看学

 

古奇：你今天晚上想干什么呢？去看电影怎么样啊？

 

阿美：这是个不错的主意。我听说我们学校的电影俱乐部会免费放映电影。或许我们不用去电影院。

 

古奇：太好了！我还听说明晚学生会会举办一个晚会。明天晚上和我一块儿去怎么样啊？

 

阿美：我非常想去，但是，我恐怕去不了。

 

古奇：为什么啊？你要准备考试吗？噢，得了吧，放松也非常重要啊。

 

阿美：不是的。明晚我要去英语角。你也知道的，我每周都会去那儿的啊。

 

古奇：噢，天啦，我忘了。

 

阿美：你说过你想提高你的英语成绩，那么明天晚上和我一起去吧。我还可以给你介绍一些朋友。

 

古奇：噢，算了吧，我可不想再认识像你一样的书呆子。

 

阿美：她们不是书呆子啊。她们也喜欢唱歌、跳舞。她们非常棒，而且她们总能帮我很多忙。

 

古奇：真的吗？那每次都会有外教吗？

 

阿美：那要看情况。如果他们不忙，就会过来和我们聊天。

 

古奇：那么就一直聊天吗？

 

阿美：当然不是啊，外教还教我们唱英文歌，和我们一起玩游戏。

 

古奇：嗯，似乎还不错。我明晚和你一起去。

 

阿美：不会令你失望的。
