別這樣!停止竊笑!Gabriel Voltaire是大獲好評的作者。你應(yīng)該表現(xiàn)出一點點的崇敬之情。

梅利莎：是的，但他似乎會怯場。我知道這是一種榮譽，聽到他的發(fā)言是種榮幸，但是看他緊張得渾身冒冷汗我就很難表現(xiàn)出尊敬了!
Kadir: He’s not sweating like a pig. He’s just talking passionately about his writing. I, for one,appreciate his level of dedication to his work.
他不是渾身汗。他只是在激情地談?wù)撍膶懽?。對我來說，欣賞他的工作的奉獻水平。

我很佩服他的工作，但他使自己出丑。說真的，當他這樣口吃地說話，誰能留意他說什么。

他使自己出洋相。我認為他應(yīng)堅持寫作，并放棄公開演講。
Kadir: Shh! That’s enough. I won’t hear another word said against him.

Melissa: Whatever you say. I’ll leave you to your hero worship. For me, enough is enough!
