The team I work in just had 2 new interns, and I happen to be their supervisor .

我所在的团队新来了两个实习生，而我恰好是他们的主管。

After today's lunch break, I saw that one of them was reading things on her smartphone, maybe on some social network, I guessed.

今天午休过后，我看见他们中的一个正在悠闲地刷手机，可能是在上社交网络吧，我猜。

I went to her and said "There's another document here needing traslation. Do you have time to finish it for me?"

我走过去问她：“我这正好有一份文档要翻译，你有时间帮忙完成一下吗？”

That document was not in her assigned workload. But I thought I could let her challenge herself a little bit with it, seeing that she seemed to have time.

这份文档并不在她的工作量里面，不过我看她似乎有空，就打算让她用着锻炼一下。

"Yes, I do have time." She said, "But I'm just an intern."

“有啊。”她说。“可是我只是个实习生啊。”

I didn't quite know what to say back then. After a while I mumbled "Right. Yes."

我当时突然不知道说什么好，愣了一下说道：“哦，对。”

And I turned around and left.

然后便转身离开了。

I recalled the time when I was an intern for the first time. I, too, managed to finish my workload so fast, just like her.
