外教讲解地道美语 第244期:描述缺点

Mr Parsons: Okay Rebecca, well I think you’ve given me a clear impression of your positive qualities, but let’s talk a little bit about your weaknesses.

Rebecca:Okay, well it’s always more difficult to describe them isn’t it?

Mr Parsons: Definitely, but if you had to pinpoint one weakness what would it be?

Rebecca:Well as I mentioned before, I do tend to get frustrated if I don’t see progress in my work or career. I suppose I’m quite a restless character.  My father always taught me to be a high achiever so.

Mr Parsons: So would you say if things don’t go your way at work it could easily get you down?

Rebecca:Well, in a way yes.  But  I  must  say that even if I’m not completely happy in my work I always give  110% I would never shirk my responsibilities.  I suppose sometimes I expect too much too soon.

Mr Parsons: Well, you know journalism is a highly competitive world,  so you do need to keep pushing yourself it’s true. Okay, well let’s move on to talk about the job position here, shall we?

Rebecca:Yes, please.
