H: Hank L: Lily
Hank and Lily are talking about the goals they set for themselves last New Year.
H: Happy New Year, Lily! Can you believe it’s already 2026?
L: I know. Another year flew by. How did your goals from last year turn out?
H: It was a mixed bag, honestly. I learned a bit of guitar, and I can now strum a few songs without scaring the neighbors.
L: That’s something! Mine were all over the place. I said I’d finish my novel. Spoiler alert: I didn’t.
H: But didn’t you write over half of it? I’m pretty sure we talked about that recently.
汉克和莉莉在谈论他们去年新年所订下的目标。
汉 克： 莉莉，新年快乐！妳敢相信现在已经 2026 了吗？
莉 莉： 我知道。一转眼又过了一年。你去年的目标结果如何？
汉 克： 说实话，有好有坏。我学了一点吉他，现在能弹几首歌而不会吓到邻居了。
莉 莉： 这样算不错了啊！我的计划一塌糊涂。我说我要完成我的小说。我先剧透：我没做到。
汉 克： 可是妳不是已经写超过一半了吗？我很确定我们最近还聊过这件事。
