上期听力文本中英对照:

Dialogue:
Ah! I’m so down.My bestie lied to me yesterday!
小漫:哎!真郁闷,昨天我的闺蜜欺骗了我!
Really? A good friend wouldactually lie to you? Something must’ve compelled her to,right?
小祺:是吗?好朋友竟然也对你撒谎?她一定是迫不得已吧?
I was gonna go chitchat with her yesterday, but she rejected me, saying she was working over time. But in reality she was busy on a date.
小漫:昨天我打算找她聊天,她居然拒绝了我,说她在加班。其实她当时正忙着相亲呢。
Haha. That’s forgivable.After all, her boyfriend is more important. And who knows? Maybe her parentsset it up and she had no other choice.
小祺:嘿嘿,这个到是可以原谅,毕竟她找男朋友的事更重要嘛,说不定是她父母安排的,非去不可呢。
Good point. But Istill really hate being lied to by other people.
小漫:有道理,不过我很讨厌被人欺骗的。
Me too. Do you remember when we were little we would ask our parents where we came from? Ourmoms and dads would always lie to us: “Oh, we picked you up out of a garbagecan!” or “You fell from heaven”, and there’s an even more outrageous one,“It was a gift from topping up your phone card!”
小祺:我也是,你记得吗,我们小时候问爸爸妈妈:"我是从哪里来的呢?",爸爸妈妈总是会骗我们:"哦,你是从垃圾桶里捡来的!"“你是从天上掉下来的”,有的更夸张,说是充值电话费送的!
Haha, that’shilarious. I guess we grew up hearing lies!
小漫:哎,真滑稽,原来我们小时候就是听着谎言长大的呢!
Actually, after we grow up, we still often subconsciously tell lies.
小祺:其实,我们长大后,也会常常不自觉地说谎。
The most commonexample is: for example, sometimes when you’re really ticked off butyou don’t want to explode, you just lie and say “I’m fine”.
小漫:最常见的是:比如,有时候你非常愤怒,但你不想爆发,你会撒谎说:我没事。
And also, whenI’ve obviously gotten a lot fatter, my coworkers all say I got thinner. Itmakes me so confused.
小祺:还有,我明明胖了好多,同事们见到我时都说我瘦了,把我都弄糊涂了。
Haha. That’s a whitelie, right? Sometimes we tell lies on purpose. For exampledoctors sometimes conceal serious diseases from their patients, allowing themto relieve a little stress and positively heal it. There’s nothing wrong withthese kinds of white lies.
小漫:哈哈,那是善意的谎言吧?有时我们会故意说谎,比如医生会对病人隐瞒严重的疾病,让病人减少心理压力,积极治疗,这些善意的谎言没有错。
So, there’s goodand bad lies. Grasping when to lie is the key. The most important thing is to not everintentionally hurt someone else.
小祺:所以,谎言有好有坏,把握好分寸才是关键!最重要的是:不要恶意伤害他人。
