　　Part II：极速句法

　　对话1

　　Bill:Congratulations! You did a really good job, Jack!

　　Jack:Thanks. I could have done better. I got a little nervous when I stood on the stage.

　　Bill:Come on, man. It was already good enough. But you really shouldn’t have got nervous.

　　Jack:I simply couldn’t help it. You know, I had never spoken to such a large crowd before.

　　Bill:No, you hadn’t.

　　Jack:And I might have begun my speech in a different way.

　　Bill:Speaking of that, yes. You might have begun by telling that joke first. It was really funny.

　　Jack:And I should have spoken a little bit slowly.

　　对话2

　　Penny:Hi, Angel. Why are you looking so depressed?

　　Angel:Well, I said something that I shouldn’t have said, and now I’m regretting it.

　　Penny:That’s interesting. What did you say?

　　Angel:Don’t ask! I won’t tell you. You know, if I did, I would regret it again.

　　Penny:Come on, Angel. Cheer up! You shouldn’t be like that.

　　Angel:I know, but I can’t help it.

　　Penny:Anyhow, what has been done has been done, and what has been said has been said. You can’t change it!

　　Angel:No, I can’t. I know I shouldn’t have thought of it again, but I simply can’t get it out of my mind.

　　Penny:Now, tell me what you had said, and then you’ll feel better.
