Todd: Have you heard the term second brain?
托德：你聽說過“第二大腦”嗎？
Jen: No.
珍：沒有。
Todd: Yeah, somebody at some teacher conference was saying that phones are students' second brain, so they use it, you hold it and you have two brains, one in your hands and one in your head.
托德：有人在教師大會上說，手機是學生的“第二大腦”，所以他們用手機，拿著手機，也就是說你有兩個大腦，一個在手里，另一個在腦部。
Jen: I would agree.
珍：我同意。
Todd: It's weird. So how about music? How addicted are you to music? Do you have to have music playing all the time?
托德：這太奇怪了。那音樂呢？你對音樂的上癮程度有多深？你必須一直聽音樂嗎？
Jen: Not all the time but then I would have to listen to music at least once a day because it just refreshes your mind and you can relieve from your stress through music. But it depends upon what kind of music you have. What about you? Do you like listening to music?
珍：不是一直，不過我每天至少要聽一次音樂，因為聽音樂可以令頭腦恢復精神，音樂可以緩解壓力。不過這要取決于你聽的是哪種音樂。你呢？你喜歡聽音樂嗎？
Todd: No. I do, but I'm not a music aficionado, and I always listen to the same ten songs. I think a lot of older people, we kind of get into that rut where I listen, honestly, to music. And I'm from the 80s, so I'm 48, I'm almost 50. So I love music from the 70s and 80s and that's all I listen to.
托德：不喜歡。我喜歡聽音樂，不過我不是音樂狂熱愛好者，我總是聽那10首歌。我認為許多年紀稍大一些的人，在聽音樂時都會陷入這種成規。我是80年代人，我今年48歲，馬上就50歲了。所以我喜歡上世紀七八十年代的音樂，我一直在聽那時的音樂。
Jen: That's understandable. Actually, I also have a lot of old songs, but I just don't listen, I just, it's not like I just keep on listening to those music. I actually keep on adding more music, more songs to it so that my play list is updated every now and then. I think, if you have good music, you will actually be addicted to it. Maybe you don't have good music.
珍：這可以理解。實際上，我也有很多老歌，不過我只是不聽，我不會一直聽那些老歌。我會不斷往播放列表里添加新的歌曲，所以我的播放列表時不時就會更新。我認為如果是好歌，那就會令人著迷。也許你只是沒聽到好的音樂。
Todd: No, the music from the 80s is good. Okay, so what about TV? Do you watch TV every day?
托德：不是，80年代的音樂很好。那電視呢？你每天都看電視嗎？
Jen: Not so much because lately I've been so busy at school so I cannot really, yeah, I don't watch much TV. But, during weekends, yeah, I do like to watch new movies or different series.
珍：看得不多，因為最近學校非常忙，所以我沒有太多時間看電視。不過我喜歡在周末看新電影或電視劇。
Todd: What about, are you one of those people that will stay up till 2:00, 3:00, 4:00 in the morning just watching YouTube videos?
托德：你會熬夜在Youtube網上看視頻嗎？就像有的人一樣，熬到凌晨兩點或三四點？
Jen: Not YouTube videos but yes, if I'm addicted to some series then I would just binge watch and watch them till 5:00 in the morning.
珍：我不會熬夜看YouTube視頻，不過如果我迷戀某部電視劇，那我會一直看，可能會看到凌晨五點。
Todd: What shows do you watch?
托德：你看什么電視劇？
Jen: Shows. Recently I've been watching Suits, it's like, it's a new series and it's really good. You should try it, too.
珍：電視劇。最近我一直在看《金裝律師》，這是一部新劇，非常不錯。你也應該看看。
Todd: Okay, I'll have to check it out. Thanks.
托德：好，我會看的。謝謝。
Jen: You're welcome, Todd.
珍：不客氣，托德。
