第10课：无趣的 - 8 【迷你小对话1】 A: You never talk about work anymore. B: Well, now that you are an international journalist, my job as a secretary seems too humdrum to mention. A: 你怎么不再谈你的工作了？ B: 你现在是国际资讯记者了，我那单调乏味的秘书工作还有什么好谈的。 【迷你小对话2】 A: Can you tell me, Mr. Gates, what you do on an average day? B: Well, I’ll be happy to tell you. But compared to most famous people, it’s pretty prosaic. I just get up, eat breakfast, go to work, come home, and go to bed. A: Gates先生，能告诉我您平时都做些什么吗？ B: 我当然愿意告诉你了。不过和大多数名人相比，我的生活平淡无奇——起床、吃早饭、上班、回家，然后睡觉。 【语言点精讲】 humdrum: 平凡的；单调的；乏味的。 average: 平常的；普通的。 prosaic: 平淡无奇的；无诗意的；乏味的。 |
