Moving into the Dorm: Meeting My New Roommate

Hey! You must be my new roommate!

嘿！你一定是我的新室友！

Hi, I'm Oliver! Sorry, I've got so many bags.

嗨，我是Oliver！不好意思，我的行李太多了。

No worries! Here, let me grab that one.

沒事！來，那個我幫你拿。

Thanks. Oh wow, it's smaller than the photos!

謝謝。哇，比照片上小好多！

Ha, yeah. The photos always lie.

哈，對啊。照片都是騙人的。

So, um, I already took the bed by the door. Is that okay?

那個，嗯，我已經睡靠門那張床了。可以嗎？

Perfect, actually. I like being near the window.

其實剛好。我喜歡靠窗。

Where are you from, by the way?

對了，你是哪裡人？

Chicago. And you're from England, right?

芝加哥。你是從英國來的吧？

That's right, Manchester! I'm here for an exchange year.

沒錯，曼徹斯特！我來這裡交換一年。

So, what time do you usually get up?

那你平常幾點起床？

Um, about eleven? I'm not really a morning person.

嗯，十一點左右？我不太是早起的人。

Oh no. I go running every day at six.

糟了。我每天六點去跑步。

Six? In the morning? Are you serious?

六點？早上六點？你認真的嗎？

Don't worry, I'll be really quiet. I promise.

別擔心，我會很安靜的。我保證。

And, um, I practise guitar at night. Is that a problem?

還有，嗯，我晚上會練吉他。會不會有問題？

Let's make a rule. No music after eleven.

我們訂個規則吧。十一點以後不能有音樂。

Fair enough. But no loud alarms before six. Deal?

公平。但六點前不准開大聲的鬧鐘。成交？

Deal. And whoever makes a mess, cleans it up.

成交。還有，誰弄亂誰收拾。

Ugh, now you sound like my mom!

唉，你現在講話跟我媽一樣！

Ha, sorry! My mum taught me well.

哈，抱歉！我媽教得好。

Wait, is that a soccer shirt in your bag?

等等，你包包裡那是足球衣嗎？

It's a football shirt. You call it soccer, remember?

這是「football」球衣。你們才叫它「soccer」，記得嗎？

Right, right! Do you want to play this weekend?

對對對！這週末要不要一起踢？

Really? I'd love to! I've been missing it.

真的？好啊！我好想念踢球。

Awesome! But first, dinner. I'm starving!

太棒了！不過先吃晚餐。我快餓死了！

Me too. Lead the way, roommate!

我也是。帶路吧，室友！
