What's the matter, Peter?
皮特，你怎么了？
I think I'm going to fail a math test, Dad.
爸爸，我觉得我这次数学考试会不及格的。
You are? Why?
是吗？为什么？
Well, I missed the bus and I had to walk to school.
我没赶上公交，我不得不走去学校。
So?
所以呢？
I'm not allowed to get to class late, and there was a big test today.
上课不能迟到的，而且今天有一场大考试。
And you weren't allowed to take the test?
没有让你进场参加考试么？
That's right. But I know I could pass that test.
没错。但是我知道我能通过那场考试的。
Well, Peter, the school has to have rules, you know.
好吧，皮特，学校必须有校规，你知道的。
I know. But they should let me take the test later. It's not fair if they don't even give me a chance!
我知道。但是他们应该让我稍后参加考试。他们甚至都不给我一次机会，这样不公平！
Well, you might still be allowed. Maybe you could talk to the teacher after school.
好吧，你或许还有机会。或许放学后你该和老师谈谈。
Yeah. Maybe if I explain what happened, she'll understand.
是的。可能如果我解释的话，她会理解的。
