美语情景对话 第1221期:What is your worst quality? 最大的缺点
JM: Hi everyone, my name is JM and I'm from the Philippines.
JM：大家好，我是JM，来自菲律宾。Phuong: And Phuong from Vietnam.
芳：我是芳，来自越南。JM: Now today's question is what is you. worst quality? So Phuong what is your worst quality?
JM：今天要讨论的问题是，你最大的缺点是什么？芳，你最大的缺点是什么呢？
Phuong: I have to confess now that I say I'm too thoughtful.
芳：我现在必须要承认，我过于体贴了。JM: Thoughtful?
JM：过于体贴？Phuong: Yes, I think a lot and sometimes of course I think a lot about my friends and the people that I care about but it's too much sometime, I feel that the people around me feel so tired of me and sometime I also feel tired because I think a lot about them and also sometime if they are not what I am expecting so I feel so disappointed. So I think it is the worst quality about me. How about you?
芳：对，我想得很多，有时我会为朋友还有我在乎的人考虑很多，不过有时因为我考虑得太多了，我身边的人会厌烦我，有时我也感觉很累，因为我为他们考虑得很多，有时如果他们没达到我所期待的那样，那我会感觉很失望。我想这是我最大的缺点。你呢？JM: I see. Well, my worst quality is my forgetfulness. Yes, when I was young my parents would also scold me for forgetting all kinds of things and even now I'm actually still pretty forgetful so whenever I have to do something very important, I have to make sure to write it down or else I will definitely forget.
JM：我明白了。我最大的缺点是健忘。我小时候经常因为忘掉各种事情而被父母责骂，即使是现在我仍然很健忘，所以每当我要做非常重要的事情的时候，我必须要把那件事写下来，否则我肯定会忘掉。Phuong: Hmm, maybe it's something like people getting old, like you and me.
芳：嗯，也许人们老了就会这样，就像你和我。JM: Yeah, maybe it's going to get worse when I get older.
JM：对，也许我老了以后会更健忘。Phuong: Sometimes I also forget things, I have to write down in a small notebook to remember what I have to do next day, something, something, so yeah that's a problem.
芳：有时我也会忘记一些事情，我必须要写在小笔记本上，记下我明天要做的事情等等，这的确是个问题。JM: All right, thank you.
JM：好，谢谢你。Phuong: Thank you.
芳：谢谢。
