Talking about a bad habit-sleeping late晚睡

原文：

Ms. Jones, David's teacher talks to David's father about David.

A: Mr. Williams, it seems that David is a bit[1] under the weather[2] these days. He looks tired all the time. And he would doze off[3] in class. I'm afraid you'd better take him to see a doctor.

B: Thank you for caring about David, Ms. Jones. He's ok. I know what the problem is. He's recently been going to bed too late.

A: When does he go to bed?

B: Er, around 11 o'clock, sometimes even later.

A: Well, that's too late. Please send him to bed earlier, say[5], around half past nine.

B: Ok. We'll do that. You know, David's mother and I are both freelancers[6]. We don't have a fixed schedule[7], so we often sleep late and get up late. Recently David seems to have also got into the bad habit of going to bed late[8].

A: But David has to get up very early. I'm really worried about his health and study.

B: Ok. I promise we'll try to change our habits - to set a good example for[9] David.

譯文：

不良生活習慣（1）-晚睡

大衛(wèi)的老師瓊斯夫人和大衛(wèi)的父親談論關于大衛(wèi)的事情。

A: 威廉姆斯先生，大衛(wèi)近來身體似乎不大好。他看起來總是很疲倦而且經(jīng)常在課上打瞌睡。恐怕您最好得帶他去看醫(yī)生。

B: 謝謝您關心大衛(wèi)的情況，瓊斯夫人。他很好。我知道問題在哪。他最近睡覺太晚了。

A: 他通常什么時候睡覺？

B: 呃，十一點左右，有時候還晚一些。

A: 哦，那太晚了。請早點讓他上床睡覺，比如說，九點半左右。

B: 好的，我們會那么做的。你知道，大衛(wèi)的媽媽和我都是自由職業(yè)者。我們沒有一個固定的時間表，所以我們經(jīng)常是睡得晚，起得也晚。最近大衛(wèi)似乎也養(yǎng)成了晚睡的壞習慣。

A: 但是大衛(wèi)得很早起床。我很為他的健康和學習擔心。
