莫莉：情況可能會好一些。我昨天進行了一個面試，我肯定他們會聘我。

戈登：你總是樂觀地對待事物，這樣很好。我希望我也能找到一份工作。

Molly: Hang in there. And try to keep a positive attitude. Always look on the bright side of life.
莫莉：等等看，保持積極樂觀的態(tài)度。要始終找到生活中好的一面。

戈登：我現在沒有工作，可是我有很多空閑時間找到一些女朋友。

Molly: Plus, girls like guys who have jobs a little better. You need money to buy flowers, right?

莫莉：做夢去吧，你。我想有些事情光靠積極樂觀的態(tài)度是無法改變的，但是大多數的事情可以。
