(Brendan and Patricia are talking about the New Year. Brendan asks Patricia what her resolutions are.)
Brendan: I can’t believe it’s a new year already.
Patricia: Like they say, time flies like an arrow!
Brendan: That’s so true. We should cherish every single moment.
Patricia: That is exactly something I need to work on.
Brendan: Do you have any New Year’s resolutions?
Patricia: Well for one, I want to do better in school.
Brendan: Wait, I thought you got good grades at school?
Patricia: I failed two classes last year, but I promise to be more hard-working.
Brendan: That’s good. You’re realizing your mistakes and making changes.
Patricia: OK, enough about me. What about you?
(布蘭登和派翠莎正在談論新年。布蘭登問派翠莎她的新年新計劃是什麼。)
布蘭登：我真不敢相信已經是新的一年了。
派翠莎：就像人們所說，光陰似箭啊！
布蘭登：真的。我們應該珍惜每分每秒。
派翠莎：那正是我必須努力的地方。
布蘭登：妳有任何的新年新計劃嗎？
派翠莎：嗯，其中之一，我想要在學業上更進步。
布蘭登：等等，我以為妳在學校成績都不錯呀？
派翠莎：我去年兩堂課被當了，但是我發誓要更努力。
布蘭登：很好啊，妳了解妳的缺點並且做出改變。
派翠莎：好啦，別說我了。那你呢？
(Brendan and Patricia continue their conversation.)
Brendan: There is something, but I’m afraid to talk about it.
Patricia: I’m your best pal. So, don’t be shy. I am all ears.
Brendan: Don’t laugh; but, I really want to find a girlfriend.
Patricia: Oh, you’re looking for love this year!
Brendan: I feel like a loser. Nobody likes me.
Patricia: Don’t be silly. I know a lot of girls interested in you.
Brendan: Really? Why didn’t you tell me sooner?
Patricia: I didn’t know you felt so troubled about it.
Brendan: Will you help me out then?
Patricia: Of course, it’s a new year, so we should have a fresh start!
(布蘭登和派翠莎繼續他們的對話。)
布蘭登：有一件事，但我不敢談它。
派翠莎：我是你最好的朋友。所以，就別害羞囉，我願洗耳恭聽。
布蘭登：別笑喔，我真的想要交女朋友。
派翠莎：哦，你今年想要尋找愛情啊！
布蘭登：我覺得我像是個失敗者，都沒有人喜歡我。
派翠莎：別說笑了，我知道有很多女生對你感興趣耶。
布蘭登：真的嗎？妳怎麼不早點跟我說？
派翠莎：我不知道你對感情那麼困擾啊。
布蘭登：那麼妳會幫我嗎？
派翠莎：當然囉，這是新的一年，所以我們應該都有個新的開始！
