第10课：无趣的 - 2

【迷你小对话】

A: I’m glad that classes are over. I find that teacher boring.
B: He seems to talk for an interminable amount of time without making a clear point. And his voice is so monotonous it nearly lulls me to sleep. He has been giving the same lectures for years.
A: Each time I hear him, it’s the same old humdrum.
B: Yes, his stale lectures are hard to take.

A: 课可算上完了，我真高兴！那个老师讲课太没劲了。
B: 他没完没了的讲，可我们根本不知道他到底想说什么；他说话的声音也很单调，听了就想睡觉；这么多年来他讲的内容从来没变过！
A: 每次他都讲他那些老掉牙的东西。
B: 是呀，他这样枯燥的课听起来真是难以忍受！
