感情若有波折,難免會影響到工作時的心情。失戀了,和關系好的同事說說,從同事那里得到的鼓勵會改善你工作時的心情的。

Mark: Hi, Jack, how have you been?
馬克:嗨!杰克,最近怎樣?
Jack: Not very well.
杰克:不怎么樣。
Mark: Why? Looks like you're feeling very down! What happened?
馬克:怎么了?你看上去心情不好啊,發(fā)生什么事了?
Jack: Nothing.
杰克:沒什么。
Mark: Come on. For a man who's feeling so down, there're usually two reasons.
Either his career is going downhill, or he has a broken heart. Since you're so
successful, it must be the
other.
馬克:說嘛。一個男人心情不好一般有兩個原因,不是他的事業(yè)滑坡,就是他感情出問題了。既然你事業(yè)這么成功,那一定是另一個原因了。
Jack: Well, you're right. I just broke up with Jane.
杰克:沒錯,你說得對。我剛和簡分手。
Mark: Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you two were made for each
other.
馬克:哦,我很抱歉。我覺得你們倆是天生一對呀。
Jack: Well, you never know. I'm ready for a commitment and want to settle
down, but she says she wants to pursue her career while she's still
young.
杰克:哎,誰知道呢。我已經(jīng)準備好承諾這一生,想定下來,可是她說她想趁年輕追求事業(yè)。
Mark: Well, you can't blame her. It's always difficult to choose between
career and family.
馬克:你不能怪她。事業(yè)與家庭兩者之間一直是很難選擇的。
Jack: Maybe you're right.
杰克:也許你說得對。
Mark: Jack, I don't know what to say to comfort you, but cheer up! There's
plenty of fish in the sea and you'll find your soul mate, your perfect
match!
馬克:杰克,我不知道怎么安慰你,但是振作起來!天涯何處無芳草,你會找到你的知音,你的那一半的!
Jack: Yeah, but it's hard to forget her at the moment. You know, we were
together for almost five years. It's really
hard...
杰克:是啊,但是現(xiàn)在很難忘記她。知道嗎,我們在一起快5年了,真是太難了。

Gary: Hi, Mike, we're having a party tonight, wanna come join us? You can
bring your girlfriend.
加里:嗨,邁克,我們今晚開派對,想來嗎?可以把你女朋友帶上。
Mike: Well...I'm breaking up with Cathy.
邁克:恩……我要和凱茜分手了。
Gary: What happened? Did you have a fight?
加里:怎么了?你們吵架了?
Mike: No. She's really a very nice girl....
邁克:沒有,她真的是個好女孩。
Gary: Yeah, she is. She's pretty, caring, and easy-going. And she's a great
cook! She's a gem!
加里:是啊,她漂亮、會關心人而且容易相處。她的廚藝一流,簡直是個寶貝哦。
Mike: Well, you're right. But sometimes she's too caring... well... no...
she's just possessive... and... uh... I kind of want a break...you know...for
some room for myself.
邁克:你說得沒錯。但是有時候她太關心我了,不,是占有欲太強了。我想要分開一段時間,想要給自己一些空間。
Gary: Oh?! Did you talk with her about it?
加里:哦?你和她談過了嗎?
Mike: I've tried, but... it didn't work.
邁克:我試過了,但是沒用。
Gary: Oh. So, when are you going to tell her?
加里:哦,那么你打算什么時候告訴她?
Mike: Maybe tonight. I don't know. I don't know how to tell
her.
邁克:可能今天晚上吧。我不知道,我不知道該怎么說。
Gary: I know she's head over heels in love with you. She'll be badly
hurt!
加里:我知道她非常愛你,她會很傷心的。
Mike: I know.
邁克:我知道。
