B:It should be, but there are too many options. My grades are good enough that I have a lot of choices, but after that…应该是容易,但选择太多了。我的好成绩足够使我有许多选择,但除此之外还有……
A:I know. You have to decide if you want to attend a school in a city or in the country, a big school or a small school, a public or private school…我知道。你必须决定是去城市还是去乡村上大学,是去大学校还是去小学校,是去公立的还是私立……

He gave me some information, and next week I'm going to take a look at some of the colleges he recommended.我明白。唔,别忘了跟学校里的大学指导老师谈谈。他通常能提出很好的建议,能帮助你指出正确的方向。他给了我一些信息,下周我打算去看一看他给我推荐的几所大学。
