Tlotlo: Hi, my name is Tlotlo and I am from Botswana.

特罗特洛:嗨,我是特罗特洛,来自博茨瓦纳。

Resse: And my name is Resse from Botswana as well.

里斯:我是里斯,同样来自博茨瓦纳。

Tlotlo: And our question is what is the first thing you do in the morning?

特罗特洛:今天要讨论的问题是,你早上做的第一件事是什么?

Resse: The first thing I do?

里斯:第一件事?

Tlotlo: I think for you it's complaining, he complains a lot.

特罗特洛:我想你应该是发牢骚,他经常抱怨。

Resse: No.

里斯:不是。

Tlotlo: No, wait here, he was complaining a lot.

特罗特洛:不对,他就是经常抱怨。

Resse: I don't complain, I'm just not a morning person you know. I think you are too happy in the morning.

里斯:我不是发牢骚,我只是不是那种早起的人。我认为你在早上太兴奋了。

Tlotlo: Well let me tell you why I am so happy in the morning. When I wake up the first thing I do is just switch on my computer and just listen to the great music. It really gets me thru the day, with that I can have a smile all day long and like you just said you complain a lot.

特罗特洛:我来告诉你我为什么早上很开心。我醒来以后做的第一件事是把电脑打开,听美妙的音乐。那会陪伴我一整天,听着音乐我可以一天都保持微笑,可是你经常抱怨。

Resse: If I get enough sleep, I'll never complain.

里斯:如果我睡眠充足,我从不抱怨。

Tlotlo: Yeah, but I don't get the logic of it. Mornings are supposed to symbolize the grace that God has given us to experience a brand new day with new memories and experiences. You shouldn't have to complain at all. You should be happy, smile like I do.

特罗特洛:好吧,不过我没明白这里面的逻辑。早上代表着上帝赐予我们的恩典,让我们去经历全新的一天,创造新的回忆和体验。你完全不应该抱怨。你应该高兴,像我一样微笑。

Resse: No, I think mornings are the most stressful part in anyone's life.

里斯:不对,我认为早上是所有人生活中压力最大的时刻。

Tlotlo: What? I cannot believe you just said that. I think mornings are great, mornings actually celebrate so when you wake up in the mornings celebrate it.

特罗特洛:什么?我简直不敢相信你刚才说了什么。我认为早晨非常棒,早上是颂扬的时间,你早上醒来以后要赞美生活。

Resse: Ah, I'm going to take a long time for me to celebrate in the mornings.

里斯:嗯,如果在早上赞美生活,那会占用很长时间的。

Tlotlo: I'll remind you. Each morning I'll call you and remind you.

特罗特洛:我会提醒你的。我会每天早上给你打电话,提醒你。

Resse: If I answer.

里斯:我接电话再说吧。
