第10課:無趣的?- 2

【迷你小對話】

A: I’m glad that classes are over. I find that teacher boring.
B: He seems to talk for an interminable amount of time without making a clear point. And his voice is so monotonous it nearly lulls me to sleep. He has been giving the same lectures for years.
A: Each time I hear him, it’s the same old humdrum.
B: Yes, his stale lectures are hard to take.

A: 課可算上完了,我真高興!那個(gè)老師講課太沒勁了。
B: 他沒完沒了的講,可我們根本不知道他到底想說什么;他說話的聲音也很單調(diào),聽了就想睡覺;這么多年來他講的內(nèi)容從來沒變過!
A: 每次他都講他那些老掉牙的東西。
B: 是呀,他這樣枯燥的課聽起來真是難以忍受!
