Dialogue 2
Mark: I've been reading about procrastination 2.
马克:我最近在读一些关于拖延的资料。
Jingjing: How is procrastination different from being too busy to do something right away.
京晶:拖延跟因太忙而不能立即做某事有何不同?
Mark: When someone procrastinates 3, they know they have time,but make excuses to delay a work project.
马克:当一个人拖延的时候,他们知道他们还有时间,但是找借口推迟一个工作项目。

Mark: Well, one piece of advice is to not make so many deadlines for yourself.
马克:嗯,其中一条建议就是,不要给自己设那么多的完成任务的最后期限。
Jingjing: Wait, not make so many deadlines for yourself?
京晶:等会儿,不要给自己设那么多的最后期限?
Mark: No, not make so many deadlines for yourself. Let other people remind you, even if it's your friends.
马克:不要。不要给自己设那么多的最后期限,让别人来提醒你(催你),哪怕是你的朋友。
Jingjing: Anything else?
京晶:还有别的吗?
Mark: Yes. It's best to set those reminders 6 closer to the actual deadline.
马克:有,最好把那些提醒设置在离真正的最后期限更近的时候。
Jingjing: That sounds like a way of putting things off.
京晶:这听上去就像推迟事情的一种方式呢。
Mark: It isn't. If people remind themselves too early, they get used to ignoring the work project.
马克:并不是。如果人们太早提醒自己,他们就会习惯性忽略工作项目。
Jingjing: Hmm. That makes sense. But I still don't understand why people don't do work as soon as they have the chance to get started.
京晶:嗯,有道理。但是我还是不明白人们为什么不在有机会立即开始的工作的时候就着手开始呢?
