What's the matter, Peter?
皮特,你怎么了?
I think I'm going to fail a math test, Dad.
爸爸,我覺(jué)得我這次數(shù)學(xué)考試會(huì)不及格的。
You are? Why?
是嗎?為什么?
Well, I missed the bus and I had to walk to school.
我沒(méi)趕上公交,我不得不走去學(xué)校。
So?
所以呢?
I'm not allowed to get to class late, and there was a big test today.
上課不能遲到的,而且今天有一場(chǎng)大考試。
And you weren't allowed to take the test?
沒(méi)有讓你進(jìn)場(chǎng)參加考試么?
That's right. But I know I could pass that test.
沒(méi)錯(cuò)。但是我知道我能通過(guò)那場(chǎng)考試的。
Well, Peter, the school has to have rules, you know.
好吧,皮特,學(xué)校必須有校規(guī),你知道的。
I know. But they should let me take the test later. It's not fair if they don't even give me a chance!
我知道。但是他們應(yīng)該讓我稍后參加考試。他們甚至都不給我一次機(jī)會(huì),這樣不公平!
Well, you might still be allowed. Maybe you could talk to the teacher after school.
好吧,你或許還有機(jī)會(huì)。或許放學(xué)后你該和老師談?wù)劇?/div>
Yeah. Maybe if I explain what happened, she'll understand.
是的。可能如果我解釋的話,她會(huì)理解的。
