  1. A

    Тём, спасай, дай списать алгебру! Марина Ивановна завтра домашку проверяет.

    Tyoma, save me, let me copy the algebra! Marina Ivanovna is checking the homework tomorrow.

  2. B

    Не дам, потом сам на контрольной завалишься. Давай лучше объясню, это проще простого.

    No way, you'll only flunk the test later. Let me explain it instead, it's as easy as pie.

  3. A

    Тебе-то легко говорить, а я над третьей задачей уже час сижу.

    Easy for you to say, I've been sitting over the third problem for an hour.

  4. B

    Ладно, а первые две ты решил? Что у тебя получилось?

    All right, and did you solve the first two? What did you get?

  5. A

    В первой двенадцать, во второй минус три. Только я не уверен, что правильно.

    Twelve in the first, minus three in the second. Only I'm not sure it's right.

  6. B

    Вместо того чтобы списывать, лучше бы себе доверял: всё верно! А в третьей сколько?

    Instead of copying, you should trust yourself more: it's all correct! And what did you get in the third?

  7. A

    Семь, но ответ какой-то подозрительно простой... Только не говори, что у тебя тоже семь!

    Seven, but the answer is suspiciously simple... Don't tell me you got seven too!
