May: The season of university enrollment hasn't ended. Maybe you will receive their admission letter soon.

Gucci: I must have done terribly in my College Entrance Exams in English and math. I think they have rejected my application.

May: Come on, don't loose heart. Ask for the telephone number of the school and give them a call.

Gucci: I have called them. But they said they didn't have my information about their computer.

May: What does that mean?

Gucci: It means my score is under their requirement and my application was automatically eliminated from the system.

May: I am so sorry, Gucci.

Gucci: Don't worry about me, May. I am just so proud of you. You've got admitted by Peking University!

May: What are you going to do next?

Gucci: I am going to apply for some vocational schools. I like fashion design and I want to study it.

阿美: 我已经收到北大的录取通知书了。

古奇: 恭喜呀!

阿美: 你怎么样?有大学来通知吗?

古奇: 没有,我已经等了有三个月了,没有一封信来。

阿美: 大学录取的时间还没有结束呢。也许很快你就能收到通知。

古奇: 高考时,我的数学和英语没有考好。我想他们已经拒绝我的申请了。

阿美: 别灰心呀。问问学校的电话号码,给他们打个电话。

古奇: 我给他们打过电话,但是他们说电脑里没有我的信息。

阿美: 那是什么意思?

古奇: 那就是说我的分数没有达到他们的要求,我的志愿表被系统自动删除了。

阿美: 我真为你感到难过,古奇。

古奇: 别为我担心,阿美。我为你自豪。你被北京大学录取了。

阿美: 那你接下来怎么办?

古奇: 我想申请一些职业学校。我喜欢服装设计,我想学这个。

阿美: 别伤心,古奇。你将来还是有机会上大学的。

古奇: 谢谢你,阿美。但是我不伤心,相反,我很高兴。我终于可以学自己喜欢的东西了。
