   It was my first time that I stayed up so late last night since I came here. I was struggling to get up this morning as there are a lot of tasks that are awaiting to be done.Anyhow ,I still need to finish my everyday story translation first and then devote into other tasks.I should insist on.
   This is Lesson 19 from New Concept English.
   Lesson 19 Sold Out
    “剧马上就要开演了,”我说。
    “也许已经开演了呢,”苏珊回答说。
    我匆匆赶到售票处,问:“我可以买两张票吗?”
    “对不起,票已售完。”那位姑娘说。
    “真可惜!”苏珊大声说。
    正在这时,一个男子匆匆奔向售票处。
    “我可以退掉这两张票吗?”他问。
    “当然可以,”那姑娘说。
    我马上又回到售票处。
    “我可以买那两张票吗?”我问。
    “当然可以,不过这两张票是下星期三的,您是否还要呢?”
    “我还是买下的好,”我垂头丧气地说。
My translation:   
     "The play will start soon,"I said.
     "Maybe it has already begun,"Susan answered.
      I was hurry to the ticket counter ,and asked:" Can I buy two tickets?"
      "Sorry , the tickets have been sold out ."The girl said.
      "What a pity!" Susan said loudly.
       At the moment, a man hurried to the tickets counter.
      "Can I cancel this two tickets?"He asked.
      "Of course you can."The girl said.
       I returned back to the tickets counter again.
       "Can I buy those two tickets?"I asked.
       "Of course,but they are for next Wendesday,are you sure you want?"
       "I'd better buy it."I felt disappointed.
The original translation:
       'The play may begin at any moment,' I said.
       'It may have begun already,' Susan answered.
        I hurried to the ticket office. 'May I have two tickets please?' I asked.
       'I'm sorry, we've sold out,' the girl said.
       'What a pity!' Susan exclaimed.
        Just then, a man hurried to the ticket office.
       'Can I return these two tickets?' he asked.
       'Certainly,' the girl said.
        I went back to the ticket office at once.
       'Could I have those two tickets please?' I asked.
      'Certainly,' the girl said, 'but they're for next Wednesday's performance. Do you still want them?'
       'I might as well have them,' I said sadly.
