第10課:無趣的?- 10

迷你小對(duì)話1

A: How was your trip to Las Vegas?
B: We had a great time going to shows and gambling all night. It’s hard to come home; Kansas City seems pretty tame by comparison.

A: 在拉斯維加斯玩得好嗎?
B: 我們整晚看表演、賭博,開心極了。真不想回去。相比之下堪薩斯市就顯得沉悶乏味了。

迷你小對(duì)話2

A: I’ve been waiting all my life to study with Dr. Newton.
B: Well, you’re going to be disappointed to find that although his books are interesting, his lectures are quite tedious. He talks in a monotone, repeats himself, and usually ends class a half-hour late.

A: 一直以來我都很想聽Newton博士的課。
B: 那你會(huì)失望的。他寫的書挺有意思,可他的課卻又臭又長(zhǎng)。他說話的聲音單調(diào),愛重復(fù),還常推遲半小時(shí)下課。

語言點(diǎn)精講

tame: 平淡的;枯燥乏味的;不緊不慢的。
tedious: 單調(diào)乏味的;令人生厭的;羅嗦的。
