Lesson Four
Short Conversations
Two-faced Connie
Donna: Well, Connie said you didn't mean to say I was bossy 1.
Jessie: She also said that you didn't mean to call me unreliable.
Donna: Yeah, well, unreliable might not have been the right thing to say. I admit it.
Jessie: I suppose bossy wasn't very nice, either. I'll take that back if you take back unreliable and that part about me being unorganized.
Donna: You're not unreliable.
Jessie: And unorganized?
Donna: But Jessie, you are unorganized.
Jessie: I don't believe it!
Donna: You are! Why do you keep denying 2 it? Even Connie said you are.
Jessie: She did?! Well, she said you're bossy, too! What does that prove?
Donna: She said I'm bossy?
Jessie: Yep, she said you always have to take charge.
Donna: What a two-faced thing to say.
Whittaker: Well, here's your water, girls.
Donna: No, thanks, Mr. Whittaker. I'm going home!
Whittaker: Oh, Jessie?
Jessie: I'm leaving, too.
Whittaker: But what...?
Connie: Hi, guys. Sorry I'm late but I had to...uh, what's going on?
Donna: We're leaving.
Connie: Leaving? What happened?
Donna: I'm not interested in working with people who talk behind other people's back about people who...oh, never mind! Goodbye!
Jessie: Connie, I really thought a woman of your age would know better.
Connie: Know better? What did I do?
- She turned me off with her bossy manner.她态度专橫很讨我嫌。
- She moved out because her mother-in-law is too bossy.她的婆婆爱指使人,所以她搬出去住了。
