PETS－2每日对话练习345

Candy comes back a week later
　　Ian: Wow, Candy! This new statement of purpose is great! You may make it, after all! How about the letters?
　　Candy: I asked two professors to write them. They told me to do it myself and they'd sign them. So, I copied these from my friends who've gone abroad.
　　Ian: [Reading] “Candy Lin is the best student I've ever had. She will undoubtedly make a monumental contribution to the entire world.” Sounds too good. I don't think an admissions committee would believe it.

　　伊恩：哇，凯蒂！这份新的读书计划真棒！你毕竟还是做到了！那推荐信呢？
　　凯蒂：我请两位教授写。他们叫我自己写，他们会签名。所以我从已经出国朋友的推荐信里抄了这些出来。
　　伊恩：（读信）‘林凯蒂是我教过的学生。她肯定将对全世界做出不朽的贡献。’听起来太好了。我不认为入学许可委员会会相信这个。
　　重点解说： 　　★ after all 毕竟
　　★ monumental (a.) 不朽的
　　★ contribution (n.) 贡献
