  1. A

    Помнишь, как мы на физике опыт устроили? Весь класс в пене был.

    Remember that experiment we did in physics? The whole class was covered in foam.

  2. B

    Ещё бы! Учитель, увидев пену, чуть в обморок не упал.

    How could I forget! When the teacher saw the foam, he nearly fainted.

  3. A

    А потом родителей вызвали. Отец мне это ещё месяц вспоминал.

    And then they called our parents in. My dad kept bringing it up for a month.

  4. B

    Сейчас смешно, хотя тогда нам было совсем не до смеха.

    It's funny now, although back then we weren't laughing at all.

  5. A

    Одного не пойму: кто тогда туда столько соды насыпал?

    One thing I still don't get: who put so much baking soda in there back then?

  6. B

    Ну... Теперь уже можно сказать. Это был я.

    Well... I guess I can tell you now. It was me.
