　　课文内容：
        　　Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very
interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting
behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the
actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not
pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. ‘I
can't hear a word!’ I said angrily.
        　　‘It's none of your business, ’ the young man said rudely. ‘This is a
private conversation!’

        　　上星期我去看戏。我的座位很好，戏很有意思，但我却无法欣赏。一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的身后，大声地说着话。我非常生气，因为我听不见演员在说什么。我回过头去怒视着那一男一女，他们却毫不理会。最后，我忍不住了，又一次回过头去，生气地说：“我一个字也听不见了!”
        　　“不关你的事，”那男的毫不客气地说，“这是私人间的谈话!”
