Adam: Sit still and stop bouncing your leg like that!
亚当:坐着别动,不要那样抖腿!
Ellen: Sorry, I didn’t realize I was doing it. I’m just a little jittery.
艾伦:对不起,我没有意识到自己在抖腿,我只是有点紧张不安。
Adam: Well, try to chill out. We’re supposed to be studying and your restlessness is distracting.
亚当:嗯,试着放松。我们应该学习,而你这样坐立不安会让你分神。
Ellen: I can’t help it. I’m like this because I had a lot of coffee. That’s the only way I can do an all-nighter.
艾伦:我也没办法,这样焦躁不安是因为我喝了太多咖啡。对于通宵熬夜的人来说,只能多喝咖啡。
Adam: But how can you study when you’re fidgeting all the time? Stop tapping your pen on the table!
亚当:但是如果你一直坐立不安,怎么能学进去呢?不要在桌子上敲笔了!
Ellen: Sorry. It’s either I’m worked up or I fall asleep, and tomorrow’s test is a make-or-break one for me. I’ve got to do well.
艾伦:对不起,要么焦躁不安,要么就要睡着了。明天的考试对我来说成败在此一举,很重要,我得做好准备。
Adam: I don’t see how you can get any studying done when you’re strung out on caffeine. You’re so jumpy and I think you’re starting to twitch. Why don’t you try to counteract the caffeine by drinking lots of water?
亚当:我不明白你怎么能够依靠喝太多咖啡因学习进去。你这么紧张不安,我想你开始抽搐了,你为什么不多喝点水来中和一下你喝的咖啡因?
Ellen: Do you know how long it took me to get this keyed up? I’m not doing anything to reduce the effects.
艾伦:你知道我花了多长时间才让我兴奋、保持精神吗?我不会做任何会减少这个作用的事。
Adam: Fine.
亚当:好吧。
Ellen: Hey, where are you going?
艾伦:嘿,你要去哪儿?
Adam: Anywhere but here!
亚当:只要不是这儿,哪儿都行。
