聽力原文及翻譯
A: How are you getting on with your art project, Tom?
A:湯姆,你的藝術(shù)項目進(jìn)展如何?
B: Okay. Like, they gave us the theme of birds to base our project on, and I'm not really all that interested in wildlife, but I'm starting to get into it. I've pretty well finished the introductory stage.
B:還好。他們給了我們鳥類作為項目的基礎(chǔ),而我對野生動物其實(shí)并不怎么感興趣,但我開始感興趣了。我已經(jīng)基本完成了入門階段。
A: So have I. When they gave us all those handouts with details of books and websites to look at, I was really put off! But the more I read, the more interested I got.
A:我也是。當(dāng)他們給我們所有那些帶有書籍和網(wǎng)站詳細(xì)信息的講義時,我真的很反感!但我讀得越多,我就越感興趣。
B: Me too. I found I could research so many different aspects of birds in art, color, movement, texture, so I was looking forward to the bird park visit.
B:我也是。我發(fā)現(xiàn)我可以從藝術(shù)、色彩、運(yùn)動、紋理等方面研究鳥類的許多不同方面,所以我很期待參觀鳥類公園。
A: What a let down! It poured with rain and we hardly saw a single bird, much less used than the trip to the Natural History Museum.
A:太令人失望了!大雨傾盆,我們幾乎看不到一只鳥,比去自然歷史博物館的次數(shù)少得多。
B: Yeah. I liked all the stuff about evolution there, the workshop sessions with Dr.Fletcher were good too, especially the brainstorming sessions.
B:是的。我喜歡那里所有關(guān)于進(jìn)化的東西,與弗萊徹博士的研討會也很好,尤其是頭腦風(fēng)暴會議。
A: I missed those, because I was ill! I wish we could have seen the projects last year
students did.
A:我錯過了那些,因為我病了!我希望我們能看到去年學(xué)生們做的項目。
B: I suppose they want us to do our own thing, not copy.
B:我想他們希望我們做自己的事情,而不是抄襲。
A: Have you drafted your proposal yet?
A:你已經(jīng)起草了你的提案了嗎?
B: Yes, but I haven't handed it in, I need to amend some parts. I've realized the notes from my research are almost all just descriptions, I haven't actually evaluated anything, so I'll have to fix that.
B:是的,但我還沒有交上去,我需要修改一些部分。我意識到我的研究筆記幾乎都只是描述,我實(shí)際上沒有評估任何東西,所以我必須解決這個問題。
A: Oh, I didn't know we had to do that, I'll have to look at that too. Did you do a timeline for the project?
A:哦,我不知道我們必須這樣做,我也必須看看。你為這個項目做了時間表嗎?
B: Yes, and a mind map.
B:是的,還有思維導(dǎo)圖。
A: Yeah, so did I. I quite enjoyed that but it was hard having to explain the basis for my decisions in my action plan.
A:是的,我也是。我很喜歡,但很難在我的行動計劃中解釋我做出決定的基礎(chǔ)。
B: What?
B:什么?
A: You know, give a rationale.
A:你知道,給出一個理由。
B: I didn't realize we had to do that, okay, I can add it now. And I've done the video diary presentation, and worked out what I want my outcome to be in the project.
B:我沒有意識到我們必須這樣做,好的,我現(xiàn)在可以添加它。我已經(jīng)完成了視頻日記演示,并確定了我希望在項目中取得的成果。
A: Someone told me it's best not to be too precise about your actual outcome at this stage, so you have more scope to explore your ideas later on, so I'm going to go back to my proposal to make it a bit more vague.
A:有人告訴我,最好不要在這個階段對實(shí)際結(jié)果過于精確,這樣你以后就有更大的空間去探索你的想法,所以我要回到我的提案,讓它更模糊一點(diǎn)。
B: Really? Okay, I'll change that too, then.
B:真的嗎?好的,那我也改一下。
