PETS－2每日对话练习228

Linger brings Zinn to see Aduh and Amanda at a coffee shop
　　Aduh: Linger, did you hear? The school's tripling internet prices!
　　Linger: Wow. And that comes right after increasing tuition costs.
　　Aduh: I know, what should I do? If I get a job, I won't have time to study.
　　Linger: Let's worry about that later. First, I want you to meet someone.
　　Aduh: Can he solve this problem?
　　Linger: Maybe. This is Zinn. He has something to tell you about politics. Amanda, you should listen, too.
　　Aduh: OK. But make it quick. I have to go to the internet cafe.

　　玲儿：哇。学费调涨之后马上就调这个。
　　阿德：我知道，我该怎么办？如果去打工，我就没有时间念书了。
　　玲儿：我们等一下再来操心那个好了。我要你们先见见一个人。
　　阿德：他可以解决这个问题吗？

　　阿德：好。但是要快。我还得去网咖。
