Jerome: Did you hear what the speaker said?
杰羅姆：你聽清楚演講者的致辭了嗎？
Elise: No, I didn’t catch that either. She’s racing through her presentation like she’s late for her train.
伊莉斯：沒有，我也沒有跟上。她的演講全程加速，像是要趕火車一樣。
Jerome: I know. She speaks at such a fast rate of speech that it’s dizzying. I wish she’d slow down so I could make out what she’s saying. Most of it is mumbled or garbled.
杰羅姆：我知道。她說話的語速太快，讓人暈頭轉向。真希望她能放慢語速，我好聽清楚她的演講內容。大多時候不是含糊不清，就是語序混雜。
Elise: She’s got to be breaking a record for the number of words per minute. Hey wait, she’s done. The next speaker has to be better.
伊莉斯：她像是要打破一分鐘說話記錄了。嘿，等一下，她的演講結束了。下一位演講者應該會好一些。
Jerome: Oh my God, she’s worse! She must be the slowest speaker alive. Every utterance is drawn-out and every sentence seems interminable. She just keeps droning on and on and on.
杰羅姆：上帝啊，這位更糟糕！她應該是地球說話最慢的演講者。每次吐字都那么漫長，每句話似乎沒玩沒了。她只是在不停的絮叨，絮叨，絮叨。
Elise: At least we can understand her.
伊莉斯：至少咱們能聽清楚她說的內容。
Jerome: Yes, but I wish she’d pick up the pace. She’s making a lengthy speech even longer. At this rate, we’ll be here until midnight!
杰羅姆：沒錯，我希望她能加快語速。這應該是世上最冗長的演講了。照這個速度，咱們得呆到半夜了。
Elise: Maybe we should try to pay attention and take notes like we’re supposed to.
伊莉斯：也許咱們應該集中注意力，開始記筆記。
Jerome: How can we when her voice is so hypnotic?
杰羅姆：如此催眠的聲音，讓我怎么能夠專心？
Elise: I know what you mean. I think I need some coffee. Do you want some?
伊莉斯：我知道你的意思。我想我得喝杯咖啡。你要來點嗎？
Jerome: (snores)
杰羅姆：呼嚕聲
Elise: Jerome, Jerome!
伊莉斯：杰羅姆，快醒醒！
