Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. "I can't hear a word!" I said angrily.
"It's none of your business," the young man said rudely. "This is a private conversation!"
参考译文:
上星期我去看戏. 我的座位很好, 戏很有意思, 但我却无法欣赏. 一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的身后, 大声地说着话. 我非常生气, 因为我听不见演员在说什么. 我回过头去怒视着那一男一女, 他们却毫不理会. 最后, 我忍不住了, 又一次回过头去, 生气地说 : 我一个字也听不见了!
“不关你的事, 那男的毫不客气地说, 这是私人间的谈话!
Last week I went to the theatre. 上星期我去看戏。
go to the theatre:去看戏
动词go的原义是离开一个地方去另一个地方,与介词to连用后,常加上主语所要去的目的地来代表主语的动作目的。
go to the +地点  表示去某地干嘛
go to the theatre = go to the theatre to see a play去剧场看戏
go to the cinema =see a film  去电影院看电影
go to the + 人 + 's 表示去这个人开的店
go to the doctor's 去看病;
go to the butcher's 买肉
以下短语中名词前不加冠词:
go to school 去上学;
go to church 去做礼拜;
go to hospital(医院) 去看病;
go to bed  上床,睡觉;
go home(跟home相连一定表示没有事情可做,回家休息)
I am at home. 在家休息
I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting.我的座位很好,戏很有意思,
seat一般指戏院、汽车等配置的固定座位,也可以抽象地表示“座位”或“位子”等概念。
the front seat of a car  汽车的前座
Take a seat, please.  请坐。
have a good seat/place,这里的seat指place(指地点),而不是chair.
take a seat/take your seat  坐下来, 就坐
Is the seat taken?  这个位置有人吗?
请坐的3种说法 :
Sit down, please.  (命令性)
Take your seat, please.
Be seated, please.  (更礼貌)
作为动词的seat与sit的区别
sit(sat,sitten)  vi. 就座
He is sitting there.  他坐在那儿。
seat  vt.让某人就座 ,安排……坐下
seat sb.  让某人就坐,后面会加人
Seat yourself.
You seat him.你给他个位置.
I did not enjoy it. 但我却无法欣赏。
enjoy的用法:
enjoy +n.  喜欢,从当中得到一种享受(后面不能跟人)
I enjoy the music.
enjoy the dinner/film/program/game
enjoy oneself/代词  玩的开心
We always enjoy ourselves.
enjoy +动名词
Jane doesnt enjoy swimming. She enjoys going to the theatre.
A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. 一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的身后,大声地说着话。
I got very angry. 我非常生气,
I got very angry. 
get在这里有“逐渐变得”的含义,接近become,是个表示过程的动词,表示状态的变化。而I was very angry则仅表示当时的状态是生气,并不暗示过程。
I am/was angry. 是一个事实
I got angry.  强调变化过程
It is hot.
It got hot.
got取代be动词,got是一个半联系动词,可以直接加形容词。
I could not hear the actors. 因为我听不见演员在说什么。
hear+人:听见某人的话
I could not hear you. Beg your pardon?
I couldn't hear you./I couldn't hear a word./I couldn't catch your words.
I couldn't hear you clearly./I couldn't catch your words.
Beg your pardon? /I couldn't catch your words.
I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. 我回过头去怒视着那一男一女,他们却毫不理会。
turn round=turn around:转身
pay attention:注意
Attention ,please. 请注意!(口语)

pay a little attention  稍加注意

  pay special attention 特别注意
In the end, I could not bear it. 最后,我忍不住了,
I could not bear it:我不能忍受
bear:
① vt. 承受,支撑,承担,负担
Can the ice bear my weight?
Who will bear the cost?  谁来承担这笔费用?
② vt. 忍受(一般与can/could连用于疑问句及否定句中)

bear =stand =put up with

bear/stand/endure  忍受的极限在加大
bear n.熊  white bear 白熊
bear hug :热情(热烈)的拥抱

in the end 最后,终于,表示一段较长的时间之后或某种努力之后

I could not bear it/you/the noise.
I turned round again. 'I can't hear a word!' I said angrily. 又一次回过头去,生气地说:我一个字也听不见了!
美音:肯定I can否定I can't ,它的/t/是吞进去的, 在读音上很难区别, 只能根据上下文来定

none of your business:不关你的事
none相当于not any或no one,但语气较强。

none of 这个短语有时可以表达一种断然、甚至粗暴的口气,尤其是在祈使句中:
None of your silly remarks!  别说傻话了!
'This is a private conversation!'.这是私人间的谈话!
