(Back in the bar, Ben and Jim return to their conversation about Jim’s former life in China, when a friend of Ben’s walks into the bar and joins them for a drink. )

Ben:So, Jim. After you kicked your bad habit, what did you do?

Jim:I had to look for a job, of course!

Ben:Hey, there’s my friend Alex! Alex!

Alex:Ben, long time no see! How’s it going?

Ben:Not good. The engagement’s off!

Alex:No way! That’s too bad!

Ben:Yeah, well, things happen. By the way, this is Jim.

Alex:Alex.

Ben:How are things with you?

Alex:I’m looking for a new job.

Jim:What’s wrong with your job?

Alex:My job’s going nowhere; it’s time to move on.

Ben:What’s up? Having boss troubles?

Alex:No, it’s not that. This job’s a no-brainer; it’s time to move on.

Jim:I’ve been on the job hunt for two months now.

Alex:Yeah, I can’t find anything that I like either!

Ben:But haven’t you already got a job?

Jim:Sure I do, but the money’s no good.

Alex:Yeah, but I’m having money troubles. It’s not cheap being a student.

Ben:I know. I hate living paycheck to paycheck.

Jim:I heard that in America, many students often have two jobs at the same time!

Ben:That’s right. University students often look for a second part-time job to increase their income.

Alex:Yeah, and many men change careers when they are in their forties. It’s called a ‘mid-life’ crisis!

Jim:Boy, you Westerners sure a strange lot!

(在酒吧里,Ben 和Jim的话题又回到Jim以前在中国的生活,这时Ben的一个朋友走进酒吧,加入了他们的谈话。)

Ben:Jim.你改掉了你的坏习惯之后又怎么样了呢?

Jim:我当然就得找份工作了。

Ben:嘿,这是我的朋友Alex! Alex!

Alex:Ben, 好久没见啦,怎么样啊!

Ben:不太好,我的订婚取消了。

Alex:不能吧,那太糟了!

Ben:是啊,意外总是发生的。对了,这是Jim。

Alex:Alex.

Ben:你的近况如何?

Alex:我正在找一份新工作。

Jim:你的工作出什么问题了?

Alex:我的工作没什么发展,是换工作的时候了。

Ben:怎么呢?和老板有矛盾?

Alex:不,不是的。做这个工作是不怎么用脑的, 而我需要更具挑战性的工作!

Jim:我现在找工作已经两个月了。

Alex:是呀,我也找不到喜欢的工作.

Ben:但你不是已经有工作了吗?

Jim:是,但是我觉得薪水不高。

Alex:是呀,但是我正在闹财政危机,当学生也不是那么便宜的。

Ben:我知道。我讨厌账单一张接一张的。

Jim:我听说在美国很多学生都同时有两份工作。

Ben:是啊,为了增加收入大学生经常找兼职来做。

Alex:是的,许多人在他们四十岁的时候都会换工作。这被称为“中年危机”!

Jim:天啊,你们西方人真是奇怪啊!
