第11课:不感兴趣的 - 4

迷你小对话

A: Your cat is beautiful. She’s so peaceful, so languorous there in the sun.
B: Well, just because she looks incurious does not mean she is!
A: Why? Does she chase mice at night?
B: Oh, no! On the subject of mice she is lukewarm, but show her a mosquito and she goes crazy!

A: 你的猫好漂亮。她那么安静地晒着太阳,一副懒洋洋的样子。
B: 她只是看上去没好奇心罢了,实际上可不是!
A: 怎么?她晚上抓老鼠?
B: 噢,不是!她对老鼠不感兴趣,不过要是有只蚊子,那她可就疯狂了。
