May: Gucci, do you have time this Sunday? I want to drive to the countryside nearby.

Gucci: Oh, you can drive? Of course I'll go with you. When did you learn how to drive?

May: Just a month ago. I got my driver's license. Here it is.

Gucci: Super. Did you learn how to drive in a driving school?

May: Yes. And I stayed in the dormitory at the driving school for a whole month.

Gucci: That must be very interesting. Tell me about the life in the driving school.

May: We got up at 6 o'clock every morning, did morning exercise.

Gucci: It's like in a military school. How was the meal then? Did you have 3 meals all at the school?

May: No, they only offered lunch. We went out for breakfast and supper by ourselves.

Gucci: How many hours did you have for learning everyday?

May: Six hours a day. We learned the laws and regulations all day long at the beginning.

Gucci: That must have been very boring.

May: Yeah, sometimes I really wanted to quit. But fortunately that's only for the first week of the program. We have practice driving classes for the rest of the program.

Gucci: Were your instructors strict with you? Have you ever been yelled at?

May: Yeah, they were very strict. After all, it is a serious thing, concerning one's life and safety. I was yelled at several times and I cried. But I think it's for my benefits.

Gucci: May, I can't wait to see you drive. Is anyone else going with us this Sunday?

May: Yes, my classmates in training school. We've become very good friends after a month of learning in the driving school.

阿美: 古奇，这个星期天你有空吗？我想开车去附近的郊区。

古奇: 哦，你会开车吗？我当然跟你一起去。你什么时候学的开车？

阿美: 一个月以前。我拿到了驾照，看！

古奇: 棒极了。你是在驾校学的开车吗？

阿美: 嗯，我在驾校的宿舍里住了一个月。

古奇: 肯定很有趣。说说你在驾校的生活吧。

阿美: 我们每天早上6点起床，做早操。

古奇: 好像是在军校。他们的伙食怎么样？你们三餐都在学校吃吗？

阿美: 不，他们只提供午餐。我们自己出去吃早餐和晚餐。

古奇: 你每天学习多长时间？

阿美: 一天6个小时。开始时，我们整天都在学交通法规。

古奇: 肯定很枯燥吧。

阿美: 嗯，有的时候我真想放弃，但幸运的是只有第一周是这样。我们后来就上实践驾驶课了。

古奇: 教练对你很严吗？你被骂了吗？

阿美: 嗯，他们非常严格。毕竟，这是一件很严肃的事情，关系到一个人的生命和安全。我被骂了几次，我都哭了。但是我想这对我是有好处的。

古奇: 阿美，我迫不及待想看你开车了。这周日还有别人跟我们一起去吗?

阿美: 嗯，还有我在驾校时的同学。在驾校共同学习一个月后，我们都成了好朋友。
