Jingjing: Hey, Mark. You looked a little lonely, so I thought I'd come talk to you.

　　京晶：嘿，马克。你看起来有点儿孤单，所以我过来和你聊聊天。

　　Mark: Lonely? You couldn't see that I had my head in a book? I was enjoying reading until you came by and ruined it!

　　马克：孤单？你看不出我正沉浸在这本书里吗？我刚一直在享受阅读的过程，直到你来并毁了一切！

　　Jingjing: Well, geez. Take a chill pill. I was just trying to be a good friend.

　　京晶：哦，天啊。冷静点儿，我只是想做一个好朋友该做的事情。

　　Mark: Well, I'm an introvert. People like me need a lot of alone time.

　　马克：我是内向性格。像我这样的人需要很多独处的时间。

　　Jingjing: You're a what?

　　京晶：你是什么？

　　Mark: An introvert! Our thoughts and energy are directed inwards. We're quieter than extraverts.

　　马克：内向的人！我们的思想和精力都指向内部。我们比外向的人更安静。

　　Jingjing: Oh, so does it drive you crazy when I come and talk to you?

　　京晶：哦，所以当我来找你说话时，你就发疯了吗？

　　Mark: Nah. But sometimes I really do need to be alone. The problem is that it's hard to let extraverts know that I want to be alone without hurting their feelings.

　　马克：没有。但有时我真的需要独处。问题是，很难既让外向的人知道我想一个人待着又不伤害他们的感情。

　　Jingjing: Well, now I understand so it's cool. What else do you struggle with?

　　京晶：嗯，现在我理解你了就没问题了。你还有什么苦恼吗？

　　人待着又不伤害他们的感情。

　　Mark: I have to make sure I verbalize my thoughts as much as I can.

　　马克：我得记着尽可能多地用语言来表达我的想法。

　　Jingjing: Ha! I have no problem saying what's on my mind!

　　京晶：哈！我想什么就说什么，完全没问题！

　　Mark: Yeah, I've noticed. Oh, and the other thing is that I have to remember to socialize.

　　马克：是，我已经注意到了。哦，还有，我还得记得多去社交。

　　Jingjing: Geez! You say that like it's a chore. I love socializing. Speaking of which, what do you say I take you to the club tonight? You can do some socializing there.

　　京晶：天啊！你把它说得像一个苦差事似的。我最喜欢社交了。既然说到这儿了，今晚我带你去夜店吧？你可以社交一下。

　　Mark: Sounds fun, let's do it.

　　马克：听起来很有趣，就这么定了。

　　马克：做一个外向的人肯定很轻松吧？
