1.2 points each.  That leaves 60 points for the essay—and our prof hasn't even told us the topic!

是的，每题2分。剩下60分就是论文的了——教授甚至还没有告诉我们题目呢！

2.P. S. please tel prof Nemur not to be such a grouch when pepul laff at him and he woud have more frends.

请告诉尼姆教受朝笑他时皮气不要么暴躁这样他就会有的朋友。

3.There's the textbook, probably 200 pages there (and that's slow going).  Also, the prof gave us a packet with 10 or more articles. We're to have the first four read before the test next week.

这是课本，大概有200页（而且读起来不轻松）。此外，教授还给了我们一套包含10篇以上文章的材料包。下周考试前我们要先读前四篇。

4.I know—but that doesn't keep me from feeling nervous about the test.  There are a few post-grads taking the course alongside us underclassmen.  I don't know if the prof is going to put us on the same curve or what.

我知道，但这并不能阻止我对考试感到紧张。有几个研究生与我们这些低年级学生一道上这门课。我不知道教授会不会把我们放在一起进行曲线评分，或者怎么样。
