May: Gucci, do you have time this Sunday? I want to drive to the countryside nearby.
Gucci: Oh, you can drive? Of course I'll go with you. When did you learn how to drive?
May: Just a month ago. I got my driver's license. Here it is.
Gucci: Super. Did you learn how to drive in a driving school?
May: Yes. And I stayed in the dormitory at the driving school for a whole month.
Gucci: That must be very interesting. Tell me about the life in the driving school.
May: We got up at 6 o'clock every morning, did morning exercise.
Gucci: It's like in a military school. How was the meal then? Did you have 3 meals all at the school?
May: No, they only offered lunch. We went out for breakfast and supper by ourselves.
Gucci: How many hours did you have for learning everyday?
May: Six hours a day. We learned the laws and regulations all day long at the beginning.
Gucci: That must have been very boring.
May: Yeah, sometimes I really wanted to quit. But fortunately that's only for the first week of the program. We have practice driving classes for the rest of the program.
Gucci: Were your instructors strict with you? Have you ever been yelled at?
May: Yeah, they were very strict. After all, it is a serious thing, concerning one's life and safety. I was yelled at several times and I cried. But I think it's for my benefits.
Gucci: May, I can't wait to see you drive. Is anyone else going with us this Sunday?
May: Yes, my classmates in training school. We've become very good friends after a month of learning in the driving school.
聽看學
阿美: 古奇，這個星期天你有空嗎？我想開車去附近的郊區。
古奇: 哦，你會開車嗎？我當然跟你一起去。你什麼時候學的開車？
阿美: 一個月以前。我拿到了駕照，看！
古奇: 棒極了。你是在駕校學的開車嗎？
阿美: 嗯，我在駕校的宿舍裏住了一個月。
古奇: 肯定很有趣。說說你在駕校的生活吧。
阿美: 我們每天早上6點起牀，做早操。
古奇: 好像是在軍校。他們的伙食怎麼樣？你們三餐都在學校吃嗎？
阿美: 不，他們只提供午餐。我們自己出去吃早餐和晚餐。
古奇: 你每天學習多長時間？
阿美: 一天6個小時。開始時，我們整天都在學交通法規。
古奇: 肯定很枯燥吧。
阿美: 嗯，有的時候我真想放棄，但幸運的是隻有第一週是這樣。我們後來就上實踐駕駛課了。
古奇: 教練對你很嚴嗎？你被罵了嗎？
阿美: 嗯，他們非常嚴格。畢竟，這是一件很嚴肅的事情，關係到一個人的生命和安全。我被罵了幾次，我都哭了。但是我想這對我是有好處的。
古奇: 阿美，我迫不及待想看你開車了。這週日還有別人跟我們一起去嗎?
阿美: 嗯，還有我在駕校時的同學。在駕校共同學習一個月後，我們都成了好朋友。

May: After one month of driver's learning, I finally get my driver's license. Going to driving school is very attractive to me. Though the instructors are very strict, and sometimes they even yelled at me, I do think it's for my own good. On Sunday I'll drive to the countryside with all of my classmates in training school and Gucci.
