第16課:有禮貌的?- 17

迷你小對(duì)話

A: I can’t get my son stay in line these days. He keeps on getting trouble at school.
B: Like how? Is he stubborn or lazy?
A: A little of both. He persists in writing his homework longhand, even though the teachers wanted it all typed. He says it is his right.
B: Wicked! You have raised a rebel.

A: 這些天我的兒子一直不聽話。他在學(xué)??偸侨锹闊?。
B: 怎么個(gè)惹麻煩?是固執(zhí)還是懶惰?
A: 都有點(diǎn)兒。他的老師要求把作業(yè)打印出來(lái),可他非要用手寫。他說(shuō)這是他的權(quán)利。
B: 天哪!你可養(yǎng)了個(gè)叛逆的孩子。
