今天的這段對(duì)話,在討論學(xué)英語,
上了一天的班,為什么回家還會(huì)用功學(xué)英語
來聽今天的講解:
A: can we have dinner together?
一起吃飯可以嗎?
B: sorry, I'll have to rush to my English class after work.
對(duì)不起,下班了我得趕緊去上英語課.
A: Oh, then how about tomorrow?
好吧,那明天怎么樣?
B: I'm terribly sorry that my classed are scheduled from Monday to Saturday.
實(shí)在是對(duì)不起,我的課從周一一直排到周五.
A: that's all right. We can do it Sunday. But why do you study English so hard? You must be tired after a whole day's work. Why not simply take a break instead?
沒關(guān)系,可以等周日嗎.你學(xué)英語怎么這么用功啊?上了一天的班,肯定挺累的,為什么不回家休息呢?
B: well, my work demands prompt me to learn English. Our company is planning to start a branch in Australia. I must prepare in advance since one day I may have to use English in my daily work.
是這樣的,我的公司要求我去學(xué)英語.公司正計(jì)劃在澳大利亞開一家分公司,我必須提前準(zhǔn)備,因?yàn)槲铱赡軙?huì)在日常工作中用到英語.
A: oh, I see. You take the initiative to improve your English competency, and you have to pay the check, right?
哦,我明白了.你自己主動(dòng)去學(xué)英語,提高英語水平,然后自己買單,是這樣嗎?
B: absolutely. I have to do this, or someday I may lose the chance to earn my basic salary. Nowdays, when our company is recruting new employees, their English level is listed as an important criterion.
沒錯(cuò),我必須這樣做,不然有一天我可能連基本工資都拿不到了.現(xiàn)在公司招人的時(shí)候把英語水平作為一個(gè)很重要的錄用標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
A: yeah, many companies are doing the same thing. They believe the lack of English-speaking personnel may hold back their plans of going global.
是啊,很多公司都是這樣的.他們認(rèn)為如果少了英語人才,可能會(huì)阻礙公司國(guó)際化的進(jìn)程.
