LINDA: Hey! How did your physics exam go?
FRANK: Not bad, thanks. I’m just glad it’s over! How about you …
how’d your presentation go?
LINDA: Oh, it went really well. Thanks for helping me with it!
FRANK: No problem. So … do you feel like studying tomorrow for 
our math exam?
LINDA: Yeah, sure! Come over around 10:00, after breakfast.
FRANK: All right. I’ll bring my notes.



LANGUAGE NOTES
• Hey! is a friendly expression meaning “hello.”
• How did your physics exam go? is a way of saying “How was your physics exam?”
• I’m just glad … Notice the stress on “glad.” “Just” is used for emphasis before an 
adjective here.
• How about you … Notice the intonation falls here because the speaker is going to 
follow it up with a detailed question.
• How’d your presentation … Notice the contraction for “How did” sounds like /howdj/ 
and “your” sounds like /yer/.
• Do you feel like here has the meaning of “do you want to.” Notice “do you feel like” is 
followed by an “-ing” verb (studying).
• Come over here has the meaning of “come to my house.”
• Notes Students take notes about what the teacher says during a lecture

第六颗行星则要大十倍。
The sixth planet was ten times larger than the last one.
上面住着一位老先生，他在写作大部头的书。
It was inhabited by an old gentleman who wrote voluminous books.
“瞧！来了一位探险家。”老先生看到小王子时，叫了起来。
"Oh, look! Here is an explorer!" he exclaimed to himself when he saw the little prince coming.
小王子在桌旁坐下，有点气喘吁吁。
The little prince sat down on the table and panted a little.
他跑了多少路啊！
He had already traveled so much and so far!
“你从哪里来的呀？”老先生问小王子。
"Where do you come from?" the old gentleman said to him.
“这一大本是什么书？你在这里干什么？”小王子问道。
"What is that big book?" said the little prince. "What are you doing?"
“我是地理学家。”老先生答道。
"I am a geographer," the old gentleman said to him.
“什么是地理学家？”小王子问。
"What is a geographer?" asked the little prince.
地理学家，就是一种学者，他知道哪里有海洋，哪里有江河、城市、山脉、沙漠。
A geographer is a scholar who knows the location of all the seas, rivers,towns, mountains, and deserts.
“这倒挺有意思。”小王子说。“这才是一种真正的行当。”
"That is very interesting," said the little prince. "Here at last is a man who has a real profession!"
他朝四周围看了看这位地理学家的星球。
And he cast a look around him at the planet of the geographer.
他还从来没有见过一颗如此壮观的行星。
It was the most magnificent and stately planet that he had ever seen.
“您的星球真美呀。上面有海洋吗？”他说。
"Your planet is very beautiful," he said. "Has it any oceans?"
“这我没法知道。”地理学家说。

"I couldn't tell you," said the geographer.
“啊！”小王子大失所望。“那么，山脉呢？”
"Ah!" The little prince was disappointed. "Has it any mountains?"
“这，我没法知道。”地理学家说。
"I couldn't tell you," said the geographer.
“那么，有城市、河流、沙漠吗？”
"And towns, and rivers, and deserts?"
这，我也没法知道。
I couldn't tell you that, either.
可您还是地理学家呢！
But you are a geographer!
“一点不错，”地理学家说，
"Exactly," the geographer said.
但是我不是探察家。我手下一个探察家都没有。
But I am not an explorer. I haven't a single explorer on my planet.
地理学家是不去计算城市、河流、山脉、海洋、沙漠的。
It is not the geographer who goes out to count the towns, the rivers, the mountains, the seas, the oceans, and the deserts.
地理学家很重要，不能到处跑。
The geographer is much too important to go loafing about.
他不能离开他的办公室。
He does not leave his desk
但他可以在办公室里接见探察家

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの26回目です。すっかり暑くなりました。最近は雨の日が多いですが、気温は高く、毎日Tシャツを着ています。今年も大阪は、いきなり暑くなったので、春はあまり感じられませんでした。記事の下書きもようやく終わりました。昨日は知り合いに誘われたので、二時間だけクラブに行きました。ああいう場所は招待で入ると無料なのでいいですね。知り合いの人はDJをやっています。

Hello. This is episode 26 of my podcast. It is nearly summer and it is hot everyday. It's been raining a lot lately, but the temperature is high and I wear a T-shirt everyday. This year, the temperature in Osaka increased suddenly, so I didn't feel like there was a spring. I have finally finished drafting my article. Yesterday I went to a club for two hours because someone I met online invited me. Places like that are nice because it's free if you enter by invitation. That person is a DJ.

あと、昨日は歯医者に行きました。ようやく、矯正している歯が動いてきました。7月ぐらいには終わるだろうと言われました。矯正は、ブラケットをつけるだけで終わると思っていましたが、実際は、何回も歯医者に行かなければいけません。歯医者に行って、ワイヤーを取り替えたり、歯を削ったりします。

Also, I went to the dentist yesterday. Finally, the teeth I'm having straightened have started to become straighter, and the dentist told me it should be done by about July. I thought the braces would be done just by putting the brackets on, but in fact I have to go to the dentist several times. I have to go to the dentist to get the wires changed, and to have my teeth ground.

日本の歯医者はほとんど民営です。「民営」とは、国ではなく、個人がしているビジネスのことです。国がしているビジネスは「国営」といいます。たとえば、日本の郵便局は国営でしたが、2007年に民営になりました。歯医者は民営ですが、国の保険が使えます。日本には国民保険があり、治療費は3割しか払わなくていいです。70歳以上は2割、75歳以上は1割です。無料ではありませんが、安いです。でも、矯正は保険が使えません。
