Do you think cash will still be popular in the future?
我认为大概在未来现金不会再流行，毕竟网络支付是如此的便捷实用，除去一部分不太擅长使用电子产品的老年人之外，剩下的人没必要去拒绝这种方式。而且在中国，现在的网络支付已经渗透到了生活的方方面面，我们早已对这种无现金交易的模式习以为常。
I don't think cash will be popular in the future - after all， online payments are so convenient and practical that there's no need for the rest of us to reject them， except for some older people who aren't very good at using electronics. And in China， where online payments have permeated every aspect of life， we've long since bee accustomed to cashless transactions.
SOCIAL MEDIA
(Q1)
When did you start using social media?
我记得当我还是一名小学生的时候，腾讯旗下的qq是当时最流行的社交媒体，而我被我的舅妈帮助着注册了一个账号，从此开始了我的网络社交之旅。当时的我并不怎么常用这个软件，因为那个时候的我觉得flash小游戏明显更有意思。

I remember when I was a primary school student， Tencent's qq was the most popular social media at that time， and I was helped by my aunt to register an account， and from then on began my online social journey. At that time， I didn't use this software very often， because at that time I thought flash games were obviously more interesting.
（Q2）
Do you think you spend too much time on social media?
我不认为我在社交媒体上花费了太多的时间，事实上在当今这个现代社会，社交媒体同样也是一种非常重要的社交手段。这类媒体将不同地区的人们链接在一起，共同组建虚拟社区，成为好朋友，这是非常难得的事情。
I don't think I spend too much time on social media， in fact in today's modern world， social media is an equally important means of socialising. This type of media links people from different parts of the world together to form virtual munities and bee good friends， which is a very rare thing.
（Q3）
Do your friends use social media?
是的，我的大多数朋友们都是社交媒体达人，我和她们也是在互联网上认识的，大多数时候我们都通过社交媒体来进行交流。老一辈或许可能觉得这有些荒谬，我们之间的友情简直一触即溃，但是我们很享受这样。
Yes， most of my friends are social media mavens and I met them on the internet and most of the time we municate through social media. The older generation might probably think this is a bit ridiculous and that our friendships are literally touch and go， but we enjoy it.
（Q4）
What do people often do on social media?
在我的印象中，人们最常在社交媒体上分享自己的生活，或者是一些他们找到的美图照片。当然在我最常使用的qq空间之中，我的朋友们经常和大家讲述自己的OC（OWN CHARACTER），也就是他们的原创角色之间的故事。
As far as I can remember， people most often share their lives on social media， or some beautiful pictures they found. Of course， in qq space， which I use most often， my friends often tell people about their OCs (OWN CHARACTER)， which is the story between their original characters.
FEEL BORED
(Q1)
Do you often feel bored?
我并不常感到无聊，在当今社会之中，很少有人会感到无聊，因为我们的手机几乎从来不离手，无事不刻都在接受着碎片化的讯息以此来填补我们的大脑。虽然就科学而言这不太好，但是生活习惯已经养成了。
I don't get bored very often， and in today's society very few people do because we're almost never without our mobile phones， filling our brains with fragmented messages all the time. It's not good science-wise， but it's a habit.

（Q2）
When would you feel bored?
虽然我几乎不会感到无聊，但是当我一个人在家，并且所有工作，游戏的每日任务都完成的时候我或许会感受到十分无聊。因为不仅这意味着我的工作都完成了，而且代表着今天的游戏时间也结束了。我或许会看看书来打发这些时间。
Although I hardly ever get bored， I might feel very bored when I'm home alone and all my work， gaming daily tasks are done. Because not only does this mean that all my work is done， but it also means that gaming time is over for the day. I might read a book to pass the time.
（Q3）
What do you do when you feel bored?
当我切实感到无聊的时候，我大概会找一些书来读，毕竟我平日里是一名小说家，看书总归对我来说是没有坏处的。或许很多人觉得应该出门去找朋友一起玩大概是更健康的一种生活态度，但我觉得看书对我来说正好，也不会有社交压力。
When I'm actually bored I'll probably find some books to read， after all I'm a novelist on a regular basis and it never hurts me to read. Maybe a lot of people think they should go out and find friends to hang out with probably a healthier approach to life， but I think reading a book is just right for me and there's no pressure to socialise.
（Q4）
Do you think childhood is boring or adulthood is boring?
我认为这两者之间没有什么比较的必要，毕竟一个人在不同的年龄段所拥有的兴趣和认知都是不同的，就像是大多数小孩子会觉得钓鱼是一件无聊的事情，但是当许多男孩变成中年男人的时候他们又会疯狂地沉迷这种活动。难以理解。
I don't think there is any need to pare the two， after all， the interests and perceptions that a person possesses at different ages are different， just like how most small children would find fishing to be a boring activity， but when many boys turn into middle-aged men they bee crazily obsessed with this activity. It is difficult to understand.
