對話
Kevin:I do. I read The Financial Times regularly, and I always check out the financial pages of any local,national,and international newspapers I read. The Internet also keeps me updated.
凱文:我有。我都會定期讀《金融時報》,而且看任何地方性、全國性或國際性的報紙時,我都會瀏覽財經版。網路也讓我能隨時知道最新消息。
Louise:Excellent,Kevin. What is it about Trade International that appeals to you?
路易絲:很好,凱文。國際貿易公司有什麼地方吸引你?
Kevin:Well,to be honest,part of the reason I applied here is due to the current economic recession. I’m concerned about my job security at my current firm──there are talks at the moment about downsizing,or even closure.
凱文:嗯,老實說,我來這兒找工作的部分原因是當前的經濟很不景氣。我很擔心目前就職公司的工作不保──現在有關公司要縮編甚至倒閉的傳言不斷。
