1 Lesson 1 - A private conversation
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!‟

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！”

  由此引申出privacy n.隐私 : private life 私生活 
  It’s privacy.这是我的隐私!(不愿让别人知道的) 
  新东方是private school(私立学校), 与此相反, 公立学校是public school.所以, private的反义词是public.
