聽力每日練習(xí) listen 3851 What's?holding?us?back?on?the?plant?expansion?project
1--What's holding us back on the plant expansion project? We were supposed to see the specs on that ages ago.Why haven't I heard anything about it? Did the whole project just vanish into thin air?
2--No, sir. The plant expansion project has been delayed.There was a snag up in the filng process to get the neccessary construction permits.It seems that the property we were slated to build on is also habitat for some endangered indigenous species.
1--You're joking, right? No wonder we've been tied up with this project. I know the environmental impact statement will take forever to get approval if they've found anything endangered on the site. Are they positive there is evidence of endangered species actually living there?
2-- The environmental review board has a team on it now.Hopefully we'll know more by the end of the week.

1--是什么阻止了我們擴(kuò)大工廠的計(jì)劃?我們本來(lái)很久以前就應(yīng)該看到任務(wù)書了.為什么我沒(méi)有聽到什么消息?整個(gè)計(jì)劃就這么消失得無(wú)影無(wú)蹤了?
2--沒(méi)有消失,先生.擴(kuò)大工廠的計(jì)劃被推遲了.在申請(qǐng)得到必要的建設(shè)許可證的過(guò)程中遇到了阻礙.好像是我們要在上面建廠的地產(chǎn)也是當(dāng)?shù)匾恍l危物種的棲息地.
1--你是在開玩笑吧?難怪我們一直受到阻撓.我知道如果他們那個(gè)地方已經(jīng)找到了瀕危物種的話,那環(huán)境影響報(bào)告就永遠(yuǎn)也不會(huì)被批準(zhǔn).他們肯定有證據(jù)來(lái)證明那里真的生活著瀕危物種嗎?
2--為此,環(huán)境調(diào)查委員會(huì)現(xiàn)在成立了一個(gè)調(diào)查小組.希望我們能在本周末之前了解更多的信息.
