4. Before Class 上课前
A: Hello, Bob. Have you got your work done for today?
B: No, But maybe the teacher won't ask for it.
A: No such luck. The last time he forgot to collect our homework was
the day he came down with the flu. He's in better
shape now. He won't forget again.
B: I know. That was a great week. I went out with Mary three nights
running.
A: Who's Mary?
B: You know, the dark-haired girl who sits in the front row.
A: Oh, her. I've never met her.
B: Sorry, friend. You won't if I have my way.

译文:
A:喂,鲍勃。今天的功课做完了吗?
B:没有,也许老师不会收作业。
A:没那么运气。上次他忘了收我们的家庭作业,是因为那天他患流感病倒了。现在他已痊愈,不会再忘了。
B:我知道。上星期实在太忙了。连续三个晚上我和玛丽有约会。
A:谁是玛丽?
B:你知道,就是坐在前排的那个黑发姑娘。
A:哦,她。我同她从没有接触。
B:对不起,朋友。如果我按照自己的愿望行事,你当然见不到她
