About School

1--How many hours a week do you work, Sue?

2--We have to start at nine o'clock in the morning.

but I'm always at school by a quarter past eight, in fact. Erm, we finish at four o'clock 4 days a week, and I usually do go home at four o'clock, and I'm usually home by half past four. Wednesday afternoon is free, so we finish at twelve o'clock on Wednesday.

1--How long have you been intereted in computers, Sue?

2--Interested. I suppose I got interested when I did

my master's degree.

1--What sort of things do you do with your computer?

2--Well, I use my computer, personally, as a word processor, quite a lot, but I also use it for playing around creating programs.

===================================

注解：

1)How long have you been interested in computers?

此句直譯：你對計算機感興趣有多長時間了?

2)I got interested in...：got是系動詞，與be interested

相比，前者強調(diào)"action"，后者強調(diào)"state"。

3)master's degree：碩士學位。大學授予的學位分三級，最低級稱作“學士”(Bachelor's degree)，中級稱“碩士”，最高級稱“博士”(Doctor's degree)。

4)sort：種類，類別。與kind同義。

5)word processor：文字處理機。

6)play around creating programs：他在計算機上編制程序等等只是為了娛樂消遣，并非正經(jīng)的工作，所以才這樣說。play around作"spend time having fun","to amuse oneself with..."解。

===================================

譯文：

1--你一個星期工作多少小時，休?

2--我們早上必須9點開始工作。但實際上我總是8點15分就到學校了。每個星期有四個下午是4點結束

工作。所以我經(jīng)常是4點鐘就往家走。4點半鐘到家。星期三下午沒事，所以我們星期三中午12點就完事了。

1--休，你從什么時間起對計算機感興趣的?

2--我想是從碩士學位時我就對計算機感興趣。

1--你都用計算機干些什么事?

2--嗬，我自己是用計算機進行文字處理，用得很多，但有時也用計算機編程序取樂。
