So how long have you been a Market ResearchConsultant?

你做市场调查顾问多长时间了？
W:
Well, I started straight after finishing university.
女：
我大学毕业后就开始做了。
M:
Did you study market research?
男：
你学的是市场调查吗？
W:
Yeah, and it really helped me to get into theindustry,
女：
是的，这帮助我进入了这个行业，
but I have to say that it's more important to get experience in different types of marketresearch to find out exactly what you're interested in.
但是我不得不说，你需要有各种市场研究的经验才能找出你真正感兴趣的事物，这很重要。
M:
So what are you interested in?
男：
你对什么感兴趣？
W:
Well, at the moment, I specialize in quantitative advertising research, which means that Ido two types of projects.
女：
目前来说，我专门做量化广告调查，也就是说我做两个项目。
Trackers, which are ongoing projects that look at trends or customer satisfaction over a longperiod of time.
追踪调查，这是个正在进行的项目，研究很长一段时期内的趋势和客户满意度。
The only problem with trackers is that it takes up a lot of your time.
追踪调查的唯一问题是太费时间。
But you do build up a good relationship with the client.
但是你真的能和客户建立良好的关系。
I also do a couple of ad-hoc jobs which are much shorter projects.
我也做一些临时工作，这些项目的耗时较短。
M:
What exactly do you mean by ad-hoc jobs?
男：
你说的临时工作是什么？
W:
It's basically when companies need quick answers to their questions about their consumers'habits.
女：
主要是，当企业需要快速解答关于消费者习惯的问题时，
They just ask for one questionnaire to be sent out for example, so the time you spend on anad-hoc project tends to be fairly short.
比如，他们需要发出一份问卷调查，所以你花费在临时工作上的时间非常短。
M:
Which do you prefer, trackers or ad-hoc?
男：
你更喜欢哪种工作，最终调查工作还是临时工作？
W:
I like doing both and in fact I need to do both at the same time to keep me from goingcrazy. I need the variety.
女：
我两个都喜欢。
实际上，需要同时做这两种工作以防我疯掉。
我需要工作多样化。
M:
Can you just explain what process you go through with a new client?
男：
你能解释一下你和新客户的交流过程吗？
W:
Well, together we decide on the methodology and the objectives of the research.

我们一起找到研究方法并设定研究的目标。
I then design a questionnaire. Once the interviewers have been briefed, I send the client aschedule and then they get back to me with deadlines.
然后我设计一份问卷调查。
问题的摘要制定好后，我把计划书发给顾客，然后他们给我最后期限。
Once the final charts and tables are ready, I have to check them and organize a presentation.
把最终的图标准备好后，我需要进行检查，然后整理报告。
M:
Hmm, one last question, what do you like and dislike about your job?
男：

As I said, variety is important and as for what I don't like, it has to be the checking ofcharts and tables.

Conversation Two
对话二
W:
Hello, I'm here with Frederick.
女：
大家好，今天我要和弗雷德里克聊聊。
Now Fred, you went to university in Canada?
弗雷德里克，你是在加拿大念的大学？
M:
Yeah, that's right.
男：
是的。
W:
OK, and you have very strong views aboutuniversities in Canada. Could you please explain?
女：
好的，那你很了解加拿大的大学。
你能介绍一下吗？
M:
Well, we don't have private universities in Canada. They're all public.
男：
加拿大没有私立大学，全是公立的。
All the universities are owned by the government, so there is the Ministry of Education in chargeof creating the curriculum for the universities
所有大学都是政府运营的，加拿大教育部负责大学课程的设置，
and so there is not much room for flexibility.
所以没有太多灵活变通的空间。
Since it's a government operated institution, things don't move very fast.
大学是政府运营的机构，事情进展的速度不会太快。
If you want something to be done, then their staff do not have so much incentive to help youbecause he's a worker for the government.
如果你想做件事，工作人员没有太大的积极性去帮助你，因为他是为政府工作的。
So I don't think it's very efficient.
我认为这样就导致效率不太高。
However, there are certain advantages of public universities, such as the fees being free. Youdon't have to pay for your education.
不过公立大学也有优点，比如学费免费。
你不用交教育费用。
But the system isn't efficient, and it does not work that well.
不过这种体系不仅效率低，而且效果不太好。
W:
Yeah, I can see your point, but in the United States we have many private universities, and Ithink they are large bureaucracies also.
女：
我明白你的观点，我们美国有很多私立大学，我认为私立大学也是庞大的官僚机构。
Maybe people don't act that much differently, because it's the same thing working for a privateuniversity.
工作人员的行为看起来没什么不同，因为为私立大学工作没什么不一样的。
They get paid for their job. I don't know if they're that much more motivated to help people.
他们通过工作获得薪水。
我不知道他们在帮助别人时是否有积极性。
Also, we have a problem in the United States that usually only wealthy kids go to the bestschools and it's kind of a problem actually.
美国的问题是，只有有钱人家的孩子才能去最好的学校上学，这是问题所在。
M:
I agree with you. I think it's a problem because you're not giving equal access to educationto everybody.
男：
我同意你的看法。
我认为这的确是个问题，因为这样没有让所有人享有同等的受教育权利。
It's not easy, but having only public universities also might not be the best solution.
这个问题不容易解决，不过我觉得只设有公立大学而没有私立大学可能并不是最好的解决方法。
Perhaps we can learn from Japan where they have a system of private and public universities.
或许我们可以像日本学习，他们既有公立大学又有私立大学的教育体系。
Now, in Japan, public universities are considered to be the best.
日本的公立大学被认为是最好的学校。
W:
Right. It's the exact opposite in the United States.
女：
是的。
这与美国的情况完全相反。
M:
So, as you see, it's very hard to say which one is better.
男：
可见，很难说哪种体系更好。
W:
Right, a good point.
女：
对，你说的没错。

一位国际劳工组的专家织帕特里克·贝尔塞表示工资增长率的降低与失业率有关。
The quite dramatic unemployment features, which we now see in some of the countries,strongly suggest that there will be a great pressure on wages in the future as more people willbe unemployed,
我们看到现在一些国家的失业率十分惊人，这强烈表明未来工资会因失业人数增加而面临更大压力。
more people will be looking for jobs and the pressure on employers to raise wages to attractworkers will decline.

Under this scheme, the number of individual working hours is reduced in an effort to avoidlayoffs.
按照这项政策，减少个人工时来避免裁员。
For this scheme to work, the government must provide wage subsidies to compensate forlost pay due to the shorter hours.

短文二
Is there really a magic memory pill or a herbal recallremedy?
魔力记忆药片或者回忆补救草药真的存在吗？
I have been frequently asked if these memorysupplements work.

But your memory doesn't need a cure.

What your memory needs is a good workout.
你的记忆需要的是很好的锻炼方式。
So really those supplements aren't going to give you that perfect memory in the way that theypromise.
所以那些补品真的不会给你带来他们所承诺的那种完美的记忆。
The other thing is that a lot of these supplements aren't necessarily what they claim to be, andyou really have to be wary when you take any of them.
另一件事是很多补品并不像他们所说的那样，你需要谨慎服用。
The science isn't there behind most of them.
很多补品并没有得到科学的证实。
They're not really well-regulated unless they adhere to some industry standard.
其实他们的管理并不良好，除非他们遵守产业标准。
You don't really know that what they say is in there, isn't there.
你不能确定他们所说的东西里面一定有，不是吗？
What you must understand is that those supplements, especially in some eastern cultures, arepart of a medical practice tradition.
你必须明白的是，尤其是在一些东方国家，这类补药是医疗实践传统的一部分。
People don't just go in a local grocery store and buy these supplements.

In fact, they are prescribed and they're given at a certain level, a dosage that is understood bya practitioner who's been trained.
