在英语角
At the English Corner
A: 星期日上午你准备做什么？
A: What do you plan to do on Sunday morning?
B：没什么特别的事情。
B: Nothing special.
A: 我和你一起去英语角怎么样？
A: How about going to English Corner with me?
B: 我不想去。
B: Oh, I’d rather not.
A: 为什么不去？
A: Why not?
B：你知道我的英语很糟糕，尤其是口语。在英语课上我都紧张得说不出话来，更不用说在英语角了，面对着更多的人。
B: You know, I am poor in English, especially at spoken-English. I feel too nervous to speak even in English class, not to speak of in English Corner, when facing more people.
A: 所以你才应该去那里。如果你因为怕说错而不敢说英语，你将永远也学不会。去英语角就是给你一个开口说英语的好机会。英语角里的人来自工厂、学院、大学、中学，甚至小学、他们中的一些人只学过几年英语。
A: That’s why you should go there. If you don’t dare to speak English owing to the fact that you are afraid of making mistakes, you simply will never learn English. To go to the Corner is to give you a good chance to open your mouth to speak. People there are from factories, institutes, colleges, middle schools or even primary schools. Some of them have only learned English for a couple of years.
