1--Are you excited about your trip next month?
2--Yes and no. I can' t wait to go to Europe, but at the same time I am terrified.
1--Why?
2--Well, I have acrophobia. I have a chronic fear of flying.
1--Oh really? I have an uncle who is also terrified of flying. It' s not that bad though, I mean, it is pretty scary to be in this big machine flying through the air at seven hundred miles per hour. I actually have arachnophobia.
2--You' re scared of spiders? I actually have two more phobias. Acrophobia and glossophobia.
1--I guess that explains why you are afraid of flying, but public speaking is not that bad.
2--Are you kidding? When I get on stage, my palms start to sweat, I get really nervous and I can hardly speak.
1--Well, I must confess I am a bit claustrophobic. I hate being in an elevator for more than 5 seconds.
2--We are such weirdos right?

1--你對(duì)下個(gè)月的旅行期待嗎?
2--有些期待但也不是那么得期待。要知道我迫不及待地想去歐洲了,但同時(shí)我也很有些擔(dān)心。
1--為什么呢?
2--嗯,那是因?yàn)槲矣锌指甙Y。我有一種長(zhǎng)期的對(duì)風(fēng)翔的恐懼感。
1--噢,是真的嗎。我有個(gè)叔叔就很害怕飛翔。但是并不是那么的恐懼。我是說(shuō),就是會(huì)有些害怕待在以七百米每小時(shí)的速度在高空飛行的飛行器里的那種感覺(jué)。事實(shí)上我自己有蜘蛛恐懼癥。
2--你害怕蜘蛛?說(shuō)實(shí)話,我有兩個(gè)恐慌癥,恐高癥和演講恐慌癥。
1--我想這就是你為什么害怕飛翔的原因吧,但是你公眾演講還不錯(cuò)呀。
2--你在開(kāi)玩笑嗎?當(dāng)我在講臺(tái)上的時(shí)候,我的手心都在流汗,我會(huì)那么緊張到說(shuō)不出話來(lái)的。
1--好吧,我必須承認(rèn)我有幽閉恐慌癥。我厭惡在電梯里待超過(guò)5秒鐘。
2--我們都不是正常人,對(duì)嗎?
