Laura: The performance is amazing. I'm curious about how they did it. I mean the way they sing.

Shirley: They must have practiced a lot. The perseverance has made them they are today.

Laura: So cool. Someone gave me this flier at the exit. What's it about?

Shirley: Let me have a look. Well, it lists some shows that will be on next week.

Laura: Oh, tell me about it. Anything interesting?

Shirley: Hmm…Oh, this one, "The Drunken Beauty". This is a real classic.

Laura: "The Drunken Beauty"? It's funny that we have "Sleeping Beauty" in my country. Anyway, what's it about? Is the beauty a drunkard?

Shirley: Of course not. She was said to be the most beautiful woman in her time and that made her become the queen. They play was famous for its singing and dancing.

Laura: Sure, people do that when they are drunk. What about the actress?

Shirley: She is an opera star in China. Her teacher's teacher is Mei Lanfang.

Laura: Oh, I've heard about him before. He even created a special dance of sleeve shaking.

Shirley: You are such an expert on it. I don't know that.

Laura: You know, interest is the best teacher.

Shirley: So, want me to book the tickets again?

Laura: Please do that. I can't wait to come back again. The performance must be really amazing.

Shirley: We can do that if you like. Maybe next weekend.

Laura: That will be great.

聽看學

羅拉：演出太精彩了。我很好奇他們是怎么做到的。我是指他們演唱的方式。

雪莉：他們一定進行了很多練習。是毅力讓他們達到今天這樣的地步。

羅拉：真酷。在出口處有人給我發(fā)了這張傳單。它上面說的什么啊？

雪莉：讓我看看。哦，它列出了下周要上演的一些劇目。

羅拉：哦，快給我講講。有什么有趣的嗎？

雪莉：嗯……哦，這場不錯，"貴妃醉酒"。這是一場經(jīng)典劇目。

羅拉：喝醉酒的美人？真有趣，在我的國家我們有"睡美人"。那么，它講的是什么？那美人是酒鬼嗎？

雪莉：當然不是。據(jù)說，在她那個時代，她是最美麗的女人，這使得她成為當時的皇后。該劇目因其唱腔和舞蹈而著名。

羅拉：一定是，人們喝醉酒的時候就會那么做。那女演員怎么樣？

雪莉：她是中國的戲曲明星。她師傅的師傅是梅蘭芳。

羅拉：哦，我以前聽說過他。他還發(fā)明了一種舞水秀的特殊舞蹈。

雪莉：你真是這方面的專家啊。我還真不知道這個呢？

羅拉：知道嗎，興趣是最好的老師。

雪莉：那么，還要我去訂一次票嗎？

羅拉：請幫忙吧。我都等不及想回來看了。那演出一定特別精彩。

雪莉：只要你喜歡當然可以。要不就下周。

羅拉：那太好了。
