会話
父親が娘を注意している場面です。上記の設問で習った表現、アクセントに注意しながら、以下の会話を聞いてみましょう。
| Father: | Where have you been! I’ve been worried sick! It’s 5am in the morning! |
| Daughter: | Sorry. I was at a club in Roppongi. |
| Father: | You’ve been where! I told you I don’t want you going there. Plus, you’re very drunk. What have you been drinking? |
| Daughter: | Wine. But only 4 small glasses. |
| Father: | You had how many? By looking at you, it looks more like 14. How did you get home? |
| Daughter: | I took a taxi. It was expensive though. Over ¥20,000. |
| Father: | It was how much! That money you got from me today was a present from your grandmother. What a complete waste! Where is the other 80,000. |
| Daughter: | All gone. I was playing pachinko earlier today. |
| Father: | You were doing what! How incredibly stupid! |
| Daughter: | Yes. And I was only in the parlour for one hour. |
| Father: | For how long? You must be the worst pachinko player in history! I hope you have learned your lesson. |
| Daughter: | It wasn’t my idea to go in there. I was with Yuiichi, and……… |
| Father: | You were with who? I thought you had broken up with him – saying you never wanted to see him again. |
| Daughter: | I never said that. In fact, we are going to get married next week! |
| Father: | Get married when! You’re only 20! Far too young for marriage. |
| Daughter: | Well, you can tell him that yourself! He’s coming over here to ask your permission at 12 today. But you can’t stop us marrying! |
| Father: | He’s coming at what time? You’ll still be in bed, and I won’t be here. |
