华尔街英语中级Lesson 74

- Ok, that’s all for now, everybody.
- Excuse me, David.
- Ah, yes, Melissa, you wanted to have a word with me. Look, I must apologize about your homework, I don’t seem to have it with me.
- I must have left if at home, I guess, I promise to bring it tomorrow, OK?
- I don’t care about your homework, nor do you.
- Well, no, I guess I don’t really, but, like, it is my job, that’s what I’m employed for.
- You aren’t happy, are you, David?
- Sorry?
- You’re not satisfied with your work, and you’re not at all satisfied with your life.
- How did you guess? I mean, what makes you think that?
- I can tell by looking into your eyes. You have such sad, sad eyes, David.
- Oh, do I? Mmm, well, I’ve got to say, there are several things I’d rather do than teach English.
- I’d quite like to be a writer, for instance.
- David, we only have one life, and one chance to be happy. Why throw it away?
- Quite so, but…
- I believe we should all do what we feel like doing, and to hell with what other people think!
- David, you’re wanted on the phone.
- Oh, I see.
- It’s your wife.
- Er… so long, Melissa, see you tomorrow.
- I told her you’re talking to one of your students.
- That’s right, yes, Melissa was worried about her…her grammar.
- Hi, there, honey, I was just chatting to one of the students, you know, about her grammar…his grammar.
- Listen, darling, can you get some more diapers for the baby on the way home? We’re completely out of them.
- Yes, certainly. Anything else, dear?
- No, that’ll be all. And come home soon, darling. Bye-bye!
- Bye-bye!
- Well, I’d better be off now.
- See you, David.
- So long.
- Washdon International School. Can I help you? I’m afraid Mr. Peters has just left.
- I can give you his home number, if you like…
