第10課:無(wú)趣的?- 1

迷你小對(duì)話

A: The applied mathematics conference was absolutely dry. Hardly an interesting word was said.
B: Yes, those are totally arid of interest. What tedious material to have to listen to all day!
A: That’s right. And most of the speakers took that lifeless subject and made it worse.
B: It was totally monotonous. I was glad to get away from there.

A: 這次的應(yīng)用數(shù)學(xué)討論會(huì)實(shí)在是無(wú)聊,一點(diǎn)有意思的東西都沒(méi)有涉及到。
B: 可不是,太枯燥無(wú)味了。整天聽(tīng)些冗長(zhǎng)乏味的材料,真沒(méi)勁。
A: 沒(méi)錯(cuò),更糟糕的是大多數(shù)發(fā)言者選的還都是些毫無(wú)生氣的話題。
B: 簡(jiǎn)直是單調(diào)極了。幸好我從那兒逃出來(lái)了。
