悲观

Hello,is that Maggie?

Yes,why aren't you sleep? It's one AM.

I can't fall asleep.

Don't you have a speech contest tomorrow? You've got to sleep well tonight.

I'm too nervous. I'm afraid I'll fail.

You need to calm down. It's no big deal.

You know my pronunciation is not very good. And I believe it would get worse at the sight of the audience.

Forget about it and go to sleep.

All right,bye.

过度悲观

Too Pessimistic

Ula:How do you feel today?

Tim:I don’t know.

Ula:Don’t be so depressed. Has Nancy come to see you?

Tim:Not yet. She must be seeing someone else. Nobody wants to marry a lame guy.

Ula:Cheer up! She is not that kind of girl and you’re not seriously hurt.You’ll get

out of here in no time.

Tim:I’m not sure. They say it’ll take a long time and I can’t feel my left leg now.

What can I do to make a living in future? I’ll lose my job, my insurance, my pension. Maybe I’ll have to live on the dole.

Ula:You shouldn’t be so pessimistic. Everything will be all right.
