聽力原文及翻譯
A: Okay, let's have a look at the current job vacancies at Milos. The first one is in Wyvernhoe Street.
A:好的,我們來看看米洛斯目前的職位空缺。第一個在 Wyvernhoe 街。
B: Sorry, where?
B:對不起,在哪里?
A: Wivenhoe, W-I-V-E-N-H-O-E, it's quite central, just off Cork Street.
A:Wivenhoe,W-I-V-E-N-H-O-E,很中心,就在 Cork 街旁邊。
B: Oh, right.
B:哦,對。
A: They're looking for a breakfast supervisor.
A:他們在找早餐主管。
B: That would be okay.
B:可以的。
A: So you're probably familiar with the kind of responsibilities involved, obviously checking that all the portions are correct etcetera, and then things like checking all the procedures for cleaning the equipment are being followed.
A:所以你可能熟悉所涉及的職責,顯然要檢查所有部分是否正確等等,然后檢查所有清潔設(shè)備的程序是否得到遵守。
B: Okay, and what about the salary? In my last job, I was getting £9.50 per hour, I was hoping to get a bit more than that.
B:好的,工資怎么樣?我上一份工作每小時能掙 9.50 英鎊,我希望能多掙一點。
A: Well, to begin with, you'd be getting £9.75. But that goes up to £11.25 after three months.
A:嗯,一開始你的工資是 9.75 英鎊。但三個月后漲到 11.25 英鎊。
B: That's not too bad. And I suppose it's a very early start.
B:還不錯。我想這份工作需要起很早。
A: That's the only unattractive thing about this job, but then you have the afternoons and evenings free. So the restaurant starts serving breakfast from 7 am, and you'd have to be there at 5:30 to set everything up, but you'd be finished at 12:30.
A:這是這份工作唯一不吸引人的地方,不過下午和晚上可以自由支配。餐廳從早上7點開始供應(yīng)早餐,你必須在5:30到那里準備一切,但12:30就能下班。
A: Well, as you say, there are advantages to that.
A:嗯,正如你所說,這樣做有好處。
B: Now you might also be interested in the job at the City Road branch, that's for a junior chef, so again, a position of responsibility.
B:現(xiàn)在你可能也對City Road分店的工作感興趣,那是初級廚師的工作,所以同樣,這是一個責任重大的職位。
A: I might prefer that actually.
A:其實我可能更喜歡那個。
B: Right. Well, obviously, this role would involve supporting the sous chef, and other senior staff, and you'd be responsible for making sure there's enough stock each week and sorting out all the deliveries.
B:對。很明顯,這個職位需要支持副廚師和其他高級員工,你要負責確保每周有足夠的存貨并整理所有的送貨。
A: I've never done that before, but I imagine it's fairly straightforward once you get the hang of it.
A:我以前從未做過,但我想一旦你掌握了竅門,就會相當簡單。
B: Yes, and you'd be working alongside more experienced off to begin with, so I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem. The salary is slightly higher here, it's an annual salary of £23,000.
B:是的,一開始你會和更有經(jīng)驗的人一起工作,所以我相信這不會有問題。這里的薪水稍微高一點,年薪是23,000英鎊。
A: Right.
A:好的。
B: I know that if they like you, it's likely you'll be promoted quite quickly. So that's worth thinking about.
B:我知道如果他們喜歡你,你很可能會很快升職。所以這值得考慮。
A: Yes it does sound interesting, what are the hours like?
A:是的,聽起來很有趣,工作時間是怎樣的?
B: The usual I think, there's a lot of evening and weekend work, but they're closed on Mondays.
B:我認為和往常一樣,有很多晚上和周末的工作,但他們周一不上班。
