Stop using movie stars as role models, and start caring about things like foreign policy[政策] and the social inequality[不平等] in your country. You might not be able to change them, but having an opinion is a good start.
不要再拿电影明星来做榜样,要开始关心国家大事,譬如外交政策和社会不平等问题。你或许不能改变什么,但能有自己的观点已是一个好开始。

Please stop overreacting[反应过强]; that gets on my nerves. I see it all the time on American Idolhenever something half-exciting happens, it's h, my God!"and all sorts of[各种各样的] screaming and crying.
请不要大惊小怪,那使我心烦。我在《美国偶像》节目上总看到这一幕一一有少许令人兴奋的事发生,就可以听见那些“噢,我的天啊!”之类的尖叫声和呼喊声。

If you meet someone who's interesting, you should get to know them, not just act nice for five minutes. We always make a call later to get to know each other better. But with you, there's no follow-up[跟进].
如果你遇上一个有趣的人,应该慢慢去了解他而非只有三分钟热度。我们总是随后通电话让彼此再作进一步了解。可是对于你们美国女孩,我们已没有继续做朋友的意愿了。

Because you start dating so young, you go through lots of cheaters[骗子] and breakupsnd then you don't trust guys later on. So think deeply about your past relationships[关系]ut know that not all guys are the same!

Learn where Greece is! Most of you don't know much geography[地理]. If it's not in the US, you act like you don't need to know about it. This country has so much history. You should at least know a little philosophy[哲学] and the origins[起源] of democracy[民主]褀hich started here. This is a great place to be.
好好搞清楚希腊在哪里!你们大多数都不太懂地理。如果某个地方不是在美国,你们就摆出一幅爱理不理的态度。(希腊)这个国家拥有悠久的历史。你们起码要知道一点哲学和民主的起源一它们起源于这里。这(希腊)是一个伟大的国家。

Don't have such a superior[高傲的] attitude about yourselves or look down on Asians. I don't know if it's a first-world-versus[对]-third-world thing, but I once met with a friend to watch a basketball game in the US, and a few girls giggled[哈哈地笑] and made a nasty[令人厌恶的] remark[话] about how they wondered if I had even heard of the game before.
不要对自己抱有那么高人一等的态度或是鄙视亚洲人。我不清楚这是不是典型第一世界的人对第三世界的人的态度,但在美国,我曾跟一位朋友去看篮球赛,一些女孩子嘲笑我,还说出些令人厌恶的话一她们怀疑我以前是否听说过(篮球)这种运动。

Please stop burping[打嗝] in public! Girls in Sweden don't ever burp when they're around guys because it's really not attractive. And guys don't do it around girls out of respect. But in America, I've seen good-looking girls have super-loud and nasty burps that made the whole room go quiet't made me feel like puking[呕吐]! I think it's funny but messed up.
请不要在公众场所打饱嗝!瑞典的姑娘从不在男孩身旁打饱嗝,因为这真的不礼貌。(瑞典的)男孩出于对女孩的尊重,与女孩一起时也不会有如此举止。但是在美国,我看过漂亮的女孩发出超级大声而又难听的打嗝声,使整个房间顿时鸦雀无声一那声音让我想呕吐!我觉得这很好笑却很不雅。
