男:我刚发现我的舍友Jim下学期要搬出我们在校外的公寓,去和他一大堆朋友一起住进一个更大的房子。
Woman: Oh, really?
女:真的吗?
Man: Yeah.

Woman: Does this mean you'll be living by yourself next semester?
女:这是不是意味着你下个学期要一个人住了?
Man: Yeah, but that's OK cause I really want to live alone next semester anyway.
男:对啊,不过这没关系,反正我下个学期也很想自己一个人住。
I have to concentrate on my senior project for the history department. I have a lot to write and I don't want any distractions.
我得专心研究我大四的历史系课题。有好多东西要写,所以我不希望有任何人或事来分散我的注意力。
The only major problem, though, is how I'll be getting to campus.
不过,唯一的问题是,到时候我要怎么去学校。
Woman: Oh, yeah?
女:哦?
Man: See, the apartment's a little far from campus and Jim has a car and he gives me rides to and from campus everyday. But I can't afford a car now.
男:你看,我的公寓离学校有点远,Jim有车,每天都顺便捎着我上下学。但是我现在可买不起车啊。
Woman: So have you thought about taking public transportation, uh, the bus to campus?
女:那你有没有考虑过坐公共交通工具去学校呢,比如公交车?
Man: Yeah, I have. The thing is that there's no bus going directly to the campus from that part of town.
男:考虑过啊。可是问题是,从我住的那个区域没有直达的公交车可以去学校。

Woman: Hmm, well, maybe you should move back into a dormitory on campus. Request a single room. There's lots of them.
女:也许你应该搬回学校的宿舍去住。学校宿舍里有很多单人房,你可以申请一间啊。
Man: Yeah, I thought about that. You know, I could live alone and get my work done but, I don't know, I would miss my apartment.
男:嗯,我有考虑过这么做。你知道的,这样我也可以一个人住,还能完成作业,但是......我也不知道,我会想念我的公寓的。

女:我理解,但是你必须得做出选择啊。
