A: Hey! What are you reading? You almost lost yourself in it.
A: 嘿!你看什么呢?这么投入。
B: A newspaper.
B: 看报纸呢。
A: Is there any big news?
A: 有什么头条新闻吗?
B: No, but the report about freelancers is very interesting.
B: 头条新闻倒没什么,不过这篇关于自由职业者的报道倒是蛮有趣的。
A: Being a freelancer sounds very stimulating. You can control your working time and don't need to get up early.
A: 自由职业者昕着就让人兴奋。自己掌握工作时间,不用每天那么早起床。
B: That's true, but it's not a good choice for everyone to be a freelancer. It needs a strong ability in self-control.
B: 那倒是,不过自由职业者也不是每个人都能当的。它需要很强的自我控制能力。
A: If I have power to decide my working hours one day, I will get up at eleven o'clock in the morning.
A: 如果哪天我能向己控制上班时间的话,我一定早上十一点再起床。
B: Haha, then you will be dying of hunger. In addition to self-control ,I think a freelancer must be patient and persistent enough. The report says that at the beginning, the freelancer may gain nothing for months.
B: 哈哈,那你就等着饿死吧。除了自控力,我觉得自由职业者还要有足够的耐心,经得起时间的考验。报道说自由职业者在刚起步阶段有可能会连续几个月都分文不进。
A: It seems that a freelancer should also be a good saver.
A: 这么看来自由职业者都应该有存钱的好习惯。
B: I think so. From this point, both of us I have been denied being a freelancer.
B: 我想是的。从这点来讲,我们俩都当不了自由职业者了。
