Skill of Language
Serena: Most of our customers are foreigners. How many foreign languages can you speak, Pamela?
Pamela: Two. French and Spanish .
Serena: And how well can you speak them?
Pamela: Well, French was my best subject at school. I can read and write it pretty well.
Serena: And how about your Spanish?
Pamela: Well, it's not as good as my French. I can speak it reasonably well, but my written Spanish isn't very good.
Serena: I see. Well, we have a lot of Spanish customers, but you wouldn't need to write any Spanish here.
Pamela: In that case, I'm fit for the position, I think.
Serena: Yes, I think so. Our company begins to expand into Asia. Can you speak Chinese or Korean ?
Pamela: Yes, I can speak Chinese, but not very well.
Serena: Where did you learn it?
Pamela: At school. And I'm still learning it now.
Serena: How long have you been learning it?
Pamela: About three years.
Serena: That's terrific. I hope you can do someday.
Pamela: I'll do my best.
語言能力
塞麗娜: 我們的大多數(shù)客戶是外國人。你能說幾種外語?
帕梅拉: 兩種。法語和西班牙語。
塞麗娜: 說得好不好呢?
帕梅拉: 嗯,在學(xué)校我最好的科目是法語。我能讀和寫的很好。
塞麗娜: 西班牙語呢?
帕梅拉: 噢,那不如我的法語。我可以說相當(dāng)不錯(cuò),但我的書面西班牙語不太好。
塞麗娜: 我明白了。哦,我們有很多的西班牙客戶,但在這里你不需要寫任何西班牙語。
帕梅拉: 在這種情況下,我想我很適合這個(gè)職位。
塞麗娜: 我想是的。我們的公司開始向亞洲擴(kuò)張。你會(huì)講中文或者韓語嗎?
帕梅拉: 我會(huì)講一些中文,但講得不是很好。
塞麗娜: 你在哪里學(xué)的?
帕梅拉: 在學(xué)校里。我現(xiàn)在還在學(xué)。
塞麗娜: 你學(xué)了多久了?
帕梅拉: 大約三年。
塞麗娜: 那真是太好了。我希望有朝一日可以用的上。
帕梅拉: 我會(huì)努力的。
