Audiobook Dictation: “Well, mother, said the young student…”

"Well, mother," said the young student, looking up, with a shade of impatience.

“怎么了，母亲？”年轻的学生抬起头，带着一丝不耐烦说。

"I wanted to talk with thee a little about thy plans."

“我想跟你稍微谈谈你的打算。”

"Mother; thee knows I couldn't stand it at Westfield; the school stifled me, it's a place to turn young people into dried fruit."

“母亲，你知道我在韦斯特菲尔德待不下去；那所学校让我窒息，那是个把年轻人变成果干的地方。”

"I know," said Margaret Bolton, with a half anxious smile, "thee chafes against all the ways of Friends, but what will thee do?

“我知道，”玛格丽特·博尔顿带着半是担忧的微笑说，“你对教友会的一切规矩都不耐烦，可你打算怎么办呢？

Why is thee so discontented?"

你为什么这样不满足呢？”

"If I must say it, mother, I want to go away, and get out of this dead level."

“如果非说不可，母亲，我想离开，走出这死气沉沉的平庸日子。”
