丹尼爾對大學不了解，于是阿美就跟他慢慢解釋。其實阿美同樣也有疑惑，是學中文還是經濟，她自己還在考慮當中。

Daniel: May, is the university a terrible place?
May: Surely not. Life in the university is fun. Why did you ask?
Daniel: Because you study day in and day out for the entrance exam. So I figure you would study even harder after you’ve got in.
May: Studying in the university is not easy, but it's not as arduous as you think.
Daniel: How do you know that? You haven't got in yet.
May: Of course I know. I once attended Lisa's class, sitting quietly at the back of the classroom.
Daniel: Oh, really? Were you not caught?
May: Of course not. You are allowed to attend any lecture, only if there are empty seats for you and you don't disturb the class. In universities, you study in a free and creative environment.
Daniel: What do you want to study in the university? Have you thought about it?
May: This question has really been bothering me. I like Chinese literature, you know. But economics is really hot now, and it has a very good career prospect.
Daniel: I will choose what I like. You don't know what a torture it is for me to study English, because I don't like English.
May: Though I like Chinese literature very much, I'm also interested in economics. It's a tough choice to make.
Daniel: You can decide later. You will have choices before you submit your university application form.
May: Right. I have lots of time to think carefully before I make my final decision.
聽看學
丹尼爾: 阿美，大學是個恐怖的地方嗎？
阿美: 當然不是，大學生活很有趣。你為什么問這個問題呀？
丹尼爾: 因為你為了高考不分晝夜地學習，所以我想你進入大學以后會更加努力地學習。
阿美: 大學的學習不那么容易，但也不是像你想象的那么枯燥。
丹尼爾: 你怎么知道？你還沒上大學呢。
阿美: 我當然知道了，我曾經安安靜靜地坐在教室后面，跟利莎一起上過課。
丹尼爾: 哦，真的嗎？你沒被抓？
阿美: 當然沒有。只要教室里還有空位，你又不擾亂課堂，你就可以旁聽任何課。在大學里，你可以在輕松而富有創造性的環境中學習。
丹尼爾: 你在大學想學什么呢？你有沒有想過？
阿美: 這個問題一直困擾著我。你知道，我喜歡中國文學，但是經濟學現在很熱門，而且它的職業發展前景也挺好的。
丹尼爾: 我會選擇我喜歡的。你不知道對我來說學習英語有多么痛苦，因為我不喜歡英語。
阿美: 雖然我非常喜歡中國文學，但我對經濟學也很感興趣。真是很難決定呀。
丹尼爾: 你可以晚點再決定。在你提交志愿表以前你還可以選擇。
阿美: 是呀，在做最后決定前，我還有很多時間仔細想想。
