課文講解
This morning, I woke up and went straight to the living room to play "Zombies." Mom was sitting on the couch, and she seemed angry. She pointed at the calendar and asked, "When does school start?" I answered, "Next week." She asked, "Did you finish your homework for summer vacation?" I didn't even start!
今天早上，我起床就直接去客厅玩「殭尸」，老妈坐在沙发上，而且好像在生气。她指着月历问我：「学校什么时候开学？」我回答：「下星期。」她说：「那你的暑假作业写完了吗？」我根本就还没开始动咧！
I tried to explain, "I was busy this summer. I had to work." Mom said sternly, "You quit at the end of July!" "I'm sorry. I'll start my homework now," I answered. Mom said, "No more video games until you finish!"
我努力解释：「今年夏天我很忙啊！我还得打工。」老妈严肃地说：「你七月底就辞职了！」「对不起，我现在会开始写作业。」我只好这么回答。老妈又说：「在你写完前不准玩电动！」
