差一点儿没及格
Almost did not pass



故事 Story

萌萌:爷爷,老师说"差一点没淹死"和"差一点淹死了"是一个意思,真的吗?
爷爷:对啊,都是没淹死的意思。
小丸子:哦,这样啊!期中考试成绩出来了,我差一点没及格。
爷爷:什么?是及格了还是没及格?
萌萌:爷爷自己想!


Méng meng: Grandpa, our teacher told us that "almost did not drown" has the same meaning as "nearly drowned." Is that true?
Grandpa: Yes, that's right. They both mean that the person did not drown.
Méng meng: Oh, I see. The mid-term exam results came out. I almost did not pass.
Grandpa: Huh? Pass or not?
Méng meng: Just think about it!
