波士顿英语口语 - 3 第 7 课 - 1

Dialogue 1 B刚买了一辆新车，花了他很多钱。B邀请A一起去试车，但A被B开车的速度吓坏了。

A: This is a nice set of wheels. How much did the dealer charge you for this?

B: A lot. I probably got to moonlight for the rest of my life, but so what, it's worth it. Come on, get in. Let's take a drive.

A: Okay then, let's go fast! Whoa! This thing can really accelerate fast.

B: Check out what happens when I put on the brakes suddenly. It can stop quickly.

A: Hey, just watch out for cops or you're gonna end up in the slammer. You know you tend to go fast?

B: Yes, I know it. I went through my last set of tires fast. I even had three flat tires in two weeks.

A: Now watch…some guys probably run a light and hit your car.

B: Cut out, would you?

Dialogue 2 B不想再住宿舍了，A极力劝他留下，因为外租公寓十分昂贵。

A: You should have seen the line at the housing office. It took me an hour to make my dormitory deposit for next year. Have you made yours yet?

B: No, I'm not sure I'm going to .

A: Why not? There's not much time left. Are you short of cash?

B: No, thanks. I am okay.

A: You'd better hurry up if you wanna a dorm room next September…

B: Well, actually, I am thinking about living off campus.

A: Do you have any idea how much that would cost?

B: I know it would be more expensive. I think I could handle it though. It's that this dorm is so noisy that I can't get anything done.

A: You should study in the library the way I do. Think of the money you'd save.

B: I've got to think it over some more.

A: I hope you will have second thoughts.
