Conversation Two
对话二
W: How are things going, Roald?
W：罗德，最近怎么样？
M: Not bad, Jane. I'm involved in several projects and it's a long working day. But I'm used to that so it doesn't bother me too much.
M：不错，珍。我参与了几个项目，工作时间很长。但是我已经习惯了，所以我不是很介意。
W: I heard you have moved to a new house in the suburb. How do you like commuting to London every day? Don't you find it strained?
W：我听说你搬进了郊区的新房子。你觉得每天通勤伦敦怎么样？你不会觉得很紧张吗？
M: It was terrible at first, especially getting up before dawn to catch that 6:30 train. But it's bearable now that I' m used to it.
M：开始的时候是很麻烦，特别是为了赶6：30的火车要在黎明前起床。但是既然我已经习惯了它还是可以忍受的。
W: Don't you think it's an awful waste of time? I couldn't bear to spend three hours sitting in a train every day.
W：你不会觉得太浪费时间吗？我不能忍受每天花3个小时坐在火车上。
M: I used to feel the same as you. But now I quite enjoy it.
M：我以前跟你一样的感觉。但是我现在很享受。
W: How do you pass the time? Do you bring some work with you to do on the train?
W：你怎么打发时间？你会带工作在火车上做吗 ？
M: Ah, that's a good question. In the morning, I just sit in comfort and read the papers to catch up with the news. On the way home at night, I relax with a good book or chat with friends or even have a game of bridge.
M：啊，好问题。早上的时候，我只是舒服地坐着，读报纸来了解时事。在晚上回家的路上，我会用一本书或者跟朋友聊天甚至打桥牌来放松。
W: I suppose you know lots of people on the train now.
W： 我猜你现在认识火车上的很多人。
M: Yes, I bumped into someone I know on the platform every day. Last week I came across a couple of old school friends and we spent the entire journey in the bar.
M：是的，我每天都会在月台上碰到我认识的人。上周我偶遇了几个旧校友，我们整个旅程都在酒吧度过。
W: It sounds like a good club. You never know. I may join it too.
W：听起来是个不错的社团。很难说，我也许也会加入。
