19. Bob on the Telephone 鲍勃在打电话

A: Hello, Pete. This is Bob. How are you?
B: Oh, I'm fine.
A: Where were you this afternoon? You missed an important lecture. Not sick, I hope. That's good. The next time you decide to skip class, check with me first. It wouldn't do for both of us to be absent. We need at least one complete set of notes. By the way, are you still in timewasting mood? Good. Why don't you come over after supper? Joe's off somewhere with date, and I don't feel much like working. About eight o'clock? Swell. And bring some records over, why don't you? Okay. See you then. Goodbye.

Notes

Feel like-want to
Swell 好极了(口头语)
Time-wasting 觉得无聊的，没事可干

A：哈罗，皮特，我是鲍勃，你怎么样？
B：啊，我很好。
A：今天下午你在哪儿？你错过了一堂重要课，我想你没生病吧？那很好，下次你决定要逃课的话，先告诉我一下，我们两人都缺席不太好。我们至少应有一套完整的笔记。顺便问问你，你现在还是觉得无聊吗？好，晚饭后你来好吗？乔出去约会了，而我不大想工作了。八点左右来怎样？好极了！带一些唱片来好吗？好，到时见，再见。
