Dialogue 1

Jingjing: Mark! I've got a bone to pick with you!
京晶:马克,有件事让我很不开心,我要跟你好好说说。
Mark: With me? What did I do this time?
马克:跟我有关?我又怎么了?
Jingjing: Last night was the third time this week you called me and woke me up just because you couldn't sleep.
京晶:昨天已经是这周第三次你半夜打电话把我吵醒了,就因为你睡不着觉。
Mark: Oh... I'm really sorry about that. I wasn't trying to be a thorn in your side. I don't know why, but I just can't fall asleep at night.
马克:哦,实在对不起,我不是想故意找你麻烦,但我不知道怎么了,就是睡不着。
Jingjing: Well, why do you feel like you have to call me every time you can't fall asleep?
京晶:那你为什么每次睡不着都给我打电话呢?
Mark: I don't know, I guess after I talk to you I feel relaxed. It really works! If you don't mind, I might call you a few more times this week because I have a test coming up. I have to make sure I get some quality shut eye.
马克:我不知道,我想是因为每次我跟你聊完天,我都能放松下来。真的非常有帮助!如果你不介意的话,我这周可能还要再给你打几次电话。我马上要考试了,我得确保我的睡眠质量。
Jingjing: Over my dead body you will! I've had it up to here with you! I think you've got sleep insomnia! Why don't you go see a shrink or some other kind of professional that can help you.
京晶:你想得美,我的忍耐已经达到极限了。我想你是失眠了,你怎么不去看看心理医生,或者找其他专业人士来帮助你呢?
Mark: Geez! Okay okay. I had no idea it was upsetting you so much. Is that why you've been giving me the cold shoulder lately?
马克:哎呀,好啦好啦,我不知道你这么不高兴。你最近对我爱搭不理的就是因为这个吗?
Jingjing: Yes! You really need to get a clue! Look, Mark, we're really good friends, but I can't solve this sleep problem you have. If you're not willing to visit the doctor, then I suggest that you do some research on better sleep techniques.
京晶:没错!面对现实吧!马克,我们确实是非常好的朋友,但是我不能帮你解决你的睡眠问题,如果你不愿意去看医生,那我建议你去研究一下有没有更好的助眠方法。
Mark: Okay, but if I can't find anything useful, I might start calling you again.
马克:好吧,但是如果我还是找不到有用的方法,我可能还是要给你打电话。
Jingjing: You better not! From now on I'm turning my phone off at night when I sleep. Talk to you later.
京晶:最好不要,从今天起我每天晚上睡觉时都会关机,拜拜。
Mark: Later.
马克:拜拜。

Dialogue 2

Jingjing: Hey, Mark, I noticed those bags under your eyes have gone away, and I haven't been getting any phone calls in the middle of the night. You must be sleeping better?
京晶:嘿,马克,我注意到你的眼袋都不见啦,而且最近也没有半夜给我打骚扰电话,你的睡眠问题解决了?
Mark: Yeah, I have been sleeping better. I'm so happy I lost my panda eyes. I took your advice and learned some really great tricks to getting better sleep.

Jingjing: Oh, yeah? Like what?
京晶:哦,真的吗?比如什么方法?
Mark: Well, I think the biggest problem was that I never really had a specific time I went to bed. Now, I make sure I go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.
马克:嗯,我原来最大的问题就是,我没有一个固定的睡觉时间,但是现在我会确保我每天上床和醒来的时间都是规律的。
Jingjing: Yeah, that's important. You should also make sure you don't sleep in too much on the weekends. That will really mess up your sleep cycle too.
京晶:是啊,那很重要。你还应该保证不要在周末赖床太久,那样也会扰乱你的睡眠规律。
Mark: Yeah, I cut that out as well. Another thing is, when I feel drowsy, I try to take a nap during the day, but no longer than thirty minutes, otherwise I'll end up having worse insomnia.
马克:是的,赖床的习惯我也改了。还有,当我白天犯困的时候我会尝试小睡一下,但是不会超过30分钟,否则我晚上就更睡不着了。
Jingjing: Taking too long of a nap during the day will definitely mess up your sleep cycle.
京晶:白天午睡太久肯定会影响你的睡眠规律。睡一下,但是不会超过30分钟,否则我晚上就更睡不着了。
Mark: Oh, and one last thing, I used to think that having a nightcap before bed made me more relaxed, but later I found out that alcohol just makes me sleep even worse.
马克:哦,还有最后一件事,我原来以为睡前小酌几杯会帮我放松,但是后来我发现酒精会让失眠更加严重。
Jingjing: Well, I'll have to remember all of these things. In fact, it's getting late. I think I'm gonna call it a day and go cop some z's.
京晶:看来我也得谨记这些。说起来,现在就已经很晚了。我觉得咱们今天就这样吧,都赶紧回家睡觉。
Mark: Glad I could help. Good night!
马克:嗯,很高兴能帮到你。晚安!
Jingjing: Night night!
京晶:晚安!
