On a busy year-end afternoon, two coworkers use their break to share their plans for the coming year and promise to work hard together.
An Afternoon Break
下午三点，办公室里很安静。
It was three in the afternoon, and the office was very quiet.
Xiao Zhang
今年快过去了，你想做什么呀？
This year is almost over. What do you want to do next year?
Xiao Wang
我想好好学，以后去中国工作。
I want to study Chinese properly, so I can go work in China someday.
Plane or Train
Xiao Zhang
真好！我也有——春天去北京玩几天。
That's great! I have a plan too. Next spring I'm going to Beijing for a few days of fun.
Xiao Wang
那你坐飞机还是坐火车去呢？
So are you flying or taking the train?
Xiao Zhang
飞机快，可是火车，我还没想好。
Flying is fast, but the train is cheap, so I haven't decided yet.
Working Hard Together
Xiao Wang
那我们说好了，都要自己的！
Then it's a promise: next year we both have to follow through on our plans!
Xiao Zhang
好！一起，我等你的好。
Deal! Let's work hard together. I'll be waiting for your good news.
两个人笑着碰了碰咖啡杯。
The two of them smiled and gently clinked their coffee cups together.
