Gucci: Congratulations!
May: How about you? Have you got any news from any university?
Gucci: No. I have been waiting for three months, there is just no letter coming.
May: The season of university enrollment hasn't ended. Maybe you will receive their admission letter soon.
Gucci: I must have done terribly in my College Entrance Exams in English and math. I think they have rejected my application.
May: Come on, don't loose heart. Ask for the telephone number of the school and give them a call.
Gucci: I have called them. But they said they didn't have my information about their computer.
May: What does that mean?
Gucci: It means my score is under their requirement and my application was automatically eliminated from the system.
May: I am so sorry, Gucci.
Gucci: Don't worry about me, May. I am just so proud of you. You've got admitted by Peking University!
May: What are you going to do next?

阿美: 我已經(jīng)收到北大的錄取通知書了。
古奇: 恭喜呀！

古奇: 沒有，我已經(jīng)等了有三個(gè)月了，沒有一封信來。

阿美: 別灰心呀。問問學(xué)校的電話號(hào)碼，給他們打個(gè)電話。
古奇: 我給他們打過電話，但是他們說電腦里沒有我的信息。
阿美: 那是什么意思？
古奇: 那就是說我的分?jǐn)?shù)沒有達(dá)到他們的要求，我的志愿表被系統(tǒng)自動(dòng)刪除了。
阿美: 我真為你感到難過，古奇。
