美国校园口语 45：活多的干不完

A: If that man gives me any more letters to type I'll scream. He's given me ten already today, and there'll be more when I get back from coffee. I'll be here till midnight.
B: Simmer down, Franny. He can't make you stay after five.
C: Sure, francs. Finish what you can, and leave the rest for Minday.
A: But they're important letters, Joe. They should go out tonight.
C: That's not your worry. If they're that urgent, he should've given them to you earlier.
B: Joe's right, Fran. You won't catch him staying in the office after five on a Friday. He's got better things to do.

Notes
Scream 大叫大嚷(要做某事)
Simmer down 别激动
Make you stay 要你留下
You won't catch him-he would never

A：如果那个人再给我一些信要我打字，我就要大声嚷嚷了，今天他已经给了我十封信。等我喝完咖啡回来还会有更多的信。我在这儿要呆到午夜了。
B：别激动，弗兰尼。他不会让你呆到五点以后的。
C：是的，弗朗西斯，你能干多少就干多少，剩下的留到星期一再做。
A：可是这都是些重要信件，乔，今天晚上应该发出去。
C：这用不着你担心。如果这些信那么紧急，他应该早一点交给你。
B：乔说得对，弗朗。每星期五他从来不会在办公室呆到五点以后。他有意思的事要做。
