英语课

  A:Hey! How was your first day of class? I’m in level two and I’m loving my class this semester!  It’s great being in a class of international students!

B:Mine was ok,  except that no one in my class speaks English.  I guess it will force me to converse 1 in Chinese more in class so at least I should improve a lot this semester.

A: That’s both fortunate and unfortunate. It’s the United Nations in my class! We have people from all over the world!  There are three Germans, a Pole, a Scottish, two French, an American, a Brazilian, a Chilean, a New Zealander, though he  prefers to call himself a Kiwi.  Who else do we have? Oh, we also have a Moroccan, a Togolese, a Pakistani, and two Indonesians!

B:That’s quite the array 2 of nationalities.  Everyone in my class is from Asia, except me. There are a  few South Koreans, several Japanese, Malaysian, Thai,  Singaporean,  Filipino,  Kazakhstani,  and one Russian.

A:Well, I think you’re pretty lucky actually.  You’ll have  the  opportunity  to  learn  so  much  about Asian culture.

B:I guess so, but I think it’s going to be hard to relate to my classmates, especially with the language barrier. I think I might change classes.

A:Don’t! Stay the course! Your spoken Chinese will be eternally 3 grateful. I bet you it will even surpass 4 mine with all that practice.

B:I highly doubt it. Your girlfriend is Chinese.

A:Well, there is that, yes.


  United Nations 联合国

array n.一系列, 大批

opportunity n.机会

language barrier 语言障碍

stay the course 坚持到最后

 


  A: 嘿!上学第一天怎么样?我在第2年级,我喜欢这学期的课。在一个满是国际生的班级中感觉很棒。

B:我还可以,就是班里没人说英语。我想那会迫使我在课堂上多用中文交流,至少这学期我会大幅度提高中文水平。

A: 那既是幸运的又是不幸的。我们班就是个小联合国。学生来自全世界各地。有3个希腊人,1个波兰人,1个英国人,2个法国人,1个美国,1个巴西人,1个智利人,1个新西兰人。尽管他更愿称自己是Kiwi人。还有别国得人吗?还有1个摩洛哥人,1个多哥人,1个巴基斯坦人,2个印尼人。

B:有这么多国籍。我们班的每个人除了我都来自亚洲,有些韩国人,一些日本人,还有马来西亚人,泰国人,新加坡人,菲律宾人,哈萨克斯坦人,以及一个俄国人。

A: 我认为你很幸运。你有机会来学习亚洲的文化。

B:我也这么想,但我想和同学们交流有点难度,尤其是有语言障碍。我想我得换班。

A: 别。要坚持到最后。你说汉语的口语能力最终一定很强。我打赌在如此多的练习下你会超过我的汉语水平。

B:我对此很怀疑。你女朋友是中国人。

A: 确实是。
