Lesson 103 The French test¶
How was the exam, Richard?
Not too bad. I think I passed in English and Mathematics. The questions were very easy. How about you, Gary?
The English and Maths papers weren't easy enough for me. I hope I haven't failed.
I think I failed the French paper. I could answer sixteen of the questions. They were very easy. But I couldn't answer the rest. They were too difficult for me.
French tests are awful, aren't they?
I hate them. I'm sure I've got a low mark.
Oh, cheer up! Perhaps we didn't do too badly. The guy next to me wrote his name at the top of the paper.
Yes?
Then he sat there and looked at it for three hours! He didn't write a word!
考试考得怎么样，理查德？
不太坏。我想我英语和数学及格了。题目很容易。你呢，加里？
英语和数学试卷对我来说不够容易。希望我没不及格。
我想我法语考试不及格了。我能回答16道题。它们很容易。但其余的题我答不上来。它们对我来说太难了。
法语考试太可怕了，不是吗？
我讨厌它们。我肯定得了低分。
哦，振作点！也许我们考得不是太糟。坐在我旁边的那个家伙在试卷顶端写上了他的名字。
是吗？
然后他就坐在那里看了3个小时！他一个字也没写！
