23-1 忙赶作业
Fancy seeing you here! Working on homework?
没想到在这儿遇到你！正忙作业呐？
Yeah, I wish I could talk, but I’m totally swamped right now. Inever should’ve let them talkme into double-majoring.
是的，我真希望我能和你说会话，但我现在完全被学业淹没了。我不该让他们说服我学双专业。
I feel you. Anything I can do to help?
我懂你（我理解）。有啥我能帮忙的吗？
Unless you’ve got a way to churn out ten pages infive hours, probably not.
除非你有办法炮制出十页论文，五小时内就要，否则你也无力回天。
Man, that’s rough. Maybe you should think about dropping a class.
大哥，这也太（南）难了。也许你应该考虑放弃一门课了。
I’m already graduating a semester late. Thelast thing I need is to take out yet another loan to pay tuition.
我已经把毕业延迟一学期了。我最不需要的事就是再贷一笔款缴学费了。
Well, there’s always paper writing servicesonline.
那，总是有论文代写服务的，网上有。
I’m pretty sure that’s a one-way ticket to expulsion.They’re really good aboutchecking for plagiarismnow.
我确定那是一张单程票，绝对会被开除的。他们现在很在行，查剽窃论文有一手。。
Yeah, better not risk it. Well, I’ll letyou get to it, then. Good luck!
:是啊，最好别冒那个险。好了，那我不打扰了，忙你的吧，好运！
23-2 通过考试
Hi, Daniel, come on in. Have a seat. Youwanted to talk about your grade?
Hi，丹尼尔，快请进。请坐。你是想谈谈你的成绩（等地）？
Yes, I was wondering what I could do tomaybe pass this class…?
是的，我是想，我怎么样做也许能通过这门课？
I see. Let me take a look at your grades.So it looks like you’re sitting at 34 right now, with several missing assignments. There’s lessthan a month left before I have to submit the final grades, which doesn't leaveyou much time to make those up.
我明白了。让我看一眼你的成绩。所以看起来你现在分数是34，有几份作业没交。还有不到一个月了，我就必须提交最终成绩了，没有留给你太多时间把作业补上了。
I can do that. I want to do well, it's justthat my dad has been inand out of hospital lately, so...
我能做到。我想做好，只是我爸最近一直在医院进进出出（总是生病入院），所以…
Well, tell you what. If you can turn in all of yourmissing assignments by two weeks from today, and get at least a 2:1 on your final exam,I'll let you pass the class. But this is your only chance. You've gotta put inthe effort.
那，告诉你这样吧。如果你能把落下的作业都交上来，从今天起两周之内交齐，并且至少得2:1分在期末考试上，我就让你过这门课。但这是你唯一的机会。你必须付出努力了。
Thank you so much! I won't let you down!
太感谢了，我不会让您失望的。
Do it for yourself, not for me!
为了你自己，不是为了我。
23-3 选择副修
Do you have any ideas for what kind ofcourses you’d like to take?
你有什么好主意吗，对于你想学什么课程来说？
Yeah, I wrote up a list, actually. Here.These are all the courses I’m hoping to take next year. Do you think we could make this work? Because ifpossible I’d like to leaveenough time to study abroad.
是，我写了一个清单，其实，在这儿。这些是全部课程，我希望明年上的。您觉得我们这样可行吗？因为如果可能的话，我想留出足够的时间到国外学习。
Right, and the study abroad programme won’tnecessarily offereverything you need to graduate. All right, well, let’s take a look at these.This physics class here has a prerequisite, which you don’t seem to have taken…Oh, and it looks like that’s only offered in the spring semester…
好吧，这个出国学习的项目不一定提供你毕业所需要的一切条件。好吧,好吧, 让我们来看看这些课。这门物理课是有一个先决条件的，你好像没学过… 哎呀，看样子这门课只有春季学期才有。
Oh, seriously? How am I supposed to finishmy minor on time then?
啊，真的吗？那我应该怎样才能按时学完我的辅修课呢？
You’re hoping to study abroad during junior year, correct?
你目前是希望大三的时候出国学习吗，对吗？
Yeah, ideally for the whole year.
是的，理想的话一整年。
If you're willing, you could take some ofyour gen eds duringthe summer term, and that way you'd have more time to squeeze in your minor andstudying abroad.
如果你愿意的话，你可以上一些基础通识课，在夏季学期学，这样的话，你就有更多的时间可以挤出来用于你的辅修课程以及在国外学习了。
I'll have to ask my parents about that.
这我得问问我父母关于这事。
