中学生の基礎英語 レベル２ Lesson 171 気分転換になるよ
Story Time
美術館で写真展が行われているので、ブランドンはミンジュンを誘って、美術館の前で待ち合わせました。
Brandon: Hey, Min-jun. How are you feeling? Are you still upset about your disagreement with Ayane?
Min-jun: Sort of. I don’t think that I fully understood Ayane’s ideas. Also, I probably didn’t communicate my ideas well enough.
Brandon: I know what you mean. Collaboration is important in journalism, too.
Min-jun: That’s true.
Brandon: Have you found a different partner for the fashion contest?
Min-jun: Not yet. I’m running out of time.
Brandon: Well, let’s check out the exhibition! Maybe this will help to take your mind off your problems.
Min-jun: Yeah, OK!
