1. When was the last time you did something in a hurry?

Um… when was it?...Let me have a think…I guess it was probably um… a few weeks ago, when I was on holiday, and I had booked a taxi to arrive at the place where I was staying, at about noon-ish, and I still had some clearing up to do, you know, I didn’t want to leave the place in a mess. So yeah, I was basically in a hurry tidying everything up and getting all my things packed before the taxi arrived.

嗯……什么时候?……让我想想……我想大概是……几个星期前，当我度假时，我预订了一辆出租车去我住的地方，大约中午时分，我还有一些清理工作要做，你知道，我不想把地方弄得一团糟。是的，我基本上很匆忙整理一切，在出租车到来之前把所有东西收拾好。

2. Do you like to finish things quickly?

Yeah I do, cos I really don’t like things to hang over me, you know, it’s just not a nice feeling when you’ve got stuff to do hanging at the back of your mind. So I like to get stuff done as quickly as I can,but saying that, I still want to do it well of course! I mean, I’m not gonna do something haphazardly just to get it done quickly, I still wanna make sure I do it well!

是的，我喜欢，因为我真的不喜欢事情缠着我，你知道，当你有事情要做的时候，这种感觉并不好。所以我喜欢尽可能快地把事情做完，但是说，我还是想把它做好!我的意思是，我不会随便做一些事情，只是为了尽快完成，我仍然想确保我做得很好。

3. What kinds of things do you never do in a hurry?

It’s an interesting question!... I’ve never really thought about that one! What kinds of things will I never do in a hurry?...um… I suppose things I would never do in a hurry would be important things, like coursework which counts towards my final grade, and what else?...I’m kind of hard pressed to think! Um… oh yeah, getting to the airport to catch a flight! You know, I’ll always give myself lots of time to get there, even if it means I arrive at the airport several hours in advance, cos it just gives me peace of mind. I mean, if you miss a flight, then your holiday’s probably gone down the drain, so it can be pretty disastrous!

这是个有趣的问题!…我从来没有真正想过那个!什么事我都不会匆忙去做?……嗯……我想我永远不会匆忙做的事会是很重要的事情，比如课程作业，它关系到我的期末成绩，还有什么别的?…我有点难以思考!嗯……哦，是的，到机场赶飞机!你知道，我总是给自己很多时间去那里，即使这意味着我提前几个小时到达机场，因为这样让我心情平静。我的意思是，如果你错过了一个航班，那么你的假期可能会被耗尽，所以它可能是相当灾难性的!

4. Why do people make mistakes more easily when they are in a hurry?

Um… well thinking about it, I suppose it’s simply because when people are in a hurry, they’re not really thinking clearly. You know, their mind’s kind of um.. how can I put it… I guess you could say flustered, thinking about lots of things at the same time, and not really being focused. So in that state of mind, I think you’d agree it’s easy to overlook things, especially small details, which will likely lead to mistakes being made!

嗯…好好想想，我想这只是因为当人们匆匆忙忙的时候，他们并没有很清楚地思考。你知道，他们的头脑是这样的…我怎么说呢……我想你可以说慌乱，同时想很多事情，却没有真正专注。所以，在这种心态下，我认为你会同意很容易忽略一些事情，尤其是小细节，这可能导致犯错误!
