Erina: So Mike, do you have any bad habits?
惠里奈：迈克，你有坏习惯吗？
Mike: Of course not. I'm perfect, I've no habits that are bad. Yes, I do have some bad habits. One of my bad habits is fidgeting and I think I'm a very high energy person so, especially when I'm on the phone, mixed with my slightly obsessive compulsive tendencies, I tend to arrange all the things on a desk so if there are pens and books and different things on the desk, I would be turning them and arranging them in order and pretty much always using my hands and keeping them busy and although this might not be such a bad habit, perhaps for people who are with me or next to me they might be a little bit uncomfortable because it seems like, you know, I'm a bit nervous or, you know, have something on my mind so...
迈克：当然没有。我非常完美，我没有坏习惯。好吧，其实我有一些坏习惯。其中一个坏习惯是小动作太多，我认为我是一个精力充沛的人，尤其是打电话的时候我会有轻微的强迫症，我要把桌子上的东西整理得井井有条，如果桌子上有铅笔、书或其他东西，我会把它们整齐摆好，而且我一直在使用双手，我的手闲不下来，不过这可能并不是坏习惯，也许我旁边的人会感觉有些不舒服，因为看上去像我很紧张或是我一直在想事情……
Erina: Not in confidence for your speech, yeah.
惠里奈：对你说的话感到不自信。
Mike: Right, in fact that's not the case but what happens is I start playing with things.
迈克：对，可是实际情况并不是那样，可是我就是会摆弄东西。
Erina: I've seen you do that before.
惠里奈：我以前看到你那样过。
Mike: Oh have you?
迈克：哦，你看到过？
Erina: Yeah.
惠里奈：对。
Mike: Well then I guess that really shows it is one of my bad habits. You know, I think that I do that to focus because, you know, while I'm speaking to somebody or while I'm on the phone, I arrange things on the desk and that is kind of metaphorically me arranging my thoughts in my head which is probably where this habit has come from.
迈克：嗯，我想这可以说明这的确是我的一个坏习惯。其实我这么做是为了集中注意力，因为我在和别人说话或是打电话时，我也会整理桌上的东西，我想这可能表明我的头脑正在整理思绪，可能这个习惯就是这么来的。
Erina: I see. Yeah, do you have any other bad habits other than fidgeting?
惠里奈：我明白了。除了小动作以外你还有其他坏习惯吗？
Mike: Well maybe a bad habit is driving quickly and I'm not sure if that's considered a bad habit but I guess when I get behind the wheel of a car I sometimes get impatient and that impatience drives me to put more weight on the gas pedal and in turn I go faster and of course speeding is not a good thing especially when you get pulled over by the police. So that's a bad habit that I might have to work on.
迈克：另外一个坏习惯是开车太快，我不确定这会不会被看作是坏习惯，不过我在开车时有时会变得不耐烦，这种不耐烦就会让我去猛踩油门，所以我越开越快，不过在你被警察截停的时候，速度就不是什么好事了。我想这是我要改掉的一个坏习惯。
Erina: Yeah, definitely. You don't want to lose your licence.
惠里奈：没错。你也不想被吊销驾照。
Mike: No.
迈克：对。
