Have you finished? I have been waiting and thought you had left long ago. The activity is about to start and everyone feels rushed.

我wǒ刚gāng才cái才cái把bǎ最zuì后hòu一yī张zhāng纸zhǐ写xiě完wán。别bié喊hǎn快kuài点diǎn儿er，我wǒ想xiǎng先xiān把bǎ姓xìng名míng检jiǎn查chá清qīng楚chu，不bù能néng只zhǐ求qiú快kuài。

I only just finished the last page. Please do not rush me; I want to check the names rather than focus only on speed.

安安

我wǒ不bù是shì让ràng你nǐ不bù检jiǎn查chá。现在xiàn zài正zhèng好hǎo有yǒu五wǔ分钟fēn zhōng，等děng到dào老师lǎo shī来lái，我们wǒ men就jiù要yào开kāi始shǐ了le。

I am not asking you to skip checking. We have five minutes, and will start as soon as the teacher comes.

那nà我wǒ把bǎ纸zhǐ准zhǔn备bèi好hǎo，其qí他tā事shì情qing等děng有yǒu空kòng儿er再zài说shuō。完成wán chéng重zhòng要yào的de一yī步bù，不bù表示biǎo shì全quán部bù问题wèn tí都dōu完wán全quán解jiě决jué了le。

Then I will prepare the papers and leave other matters until there is time. One important completed step does not solve every issue.
