《新概念英语》第二册第1课 A private conversation 私人谈话

　　【课文】

　　Last week, I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I didn't enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. "I can't hear a word." I said angrily.

　　"It's none of your business." The young man said rudely. "This's a private conversation!"

　　【课文翻译】

　　上星期我去看戏。我的座位很好，戏很有意思，但我却没办法欣赏。一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的身后，大声地说着话。我很生气，因为我听不见演员在说什么。 我回过头去怒视着那一男一女，他们却毫不理会。最后，我忍不住了，又一次回过头去，生气地说：“我一个字也听不见了!”

　　“不关你的事，”那男的毫不客气地说，“这是私人间的谈话!”
