第二十六课: 寻工面试
Lesson 26: A Job Interview
我们正在学习的是第二十六讲“寻工面试”。

接下来我们要学习新的对话内容，我会将对话的内容逐句译成中
文。
杰斯丁： 你有什么问题要问我吗？
Justine: Now, is there anything you would like to ask me?
鲍勃： 有，我想问问是否有人知道利奥到底怎么样了？
Bob: Yes, I was wondering if anyone has heard what happened to
Leo?
杰斯丁： 鲍波，我的意思是你对这个职位是否有问题要问？
Justine: I mean questions relating to this position, Bob.
鲍勃： 哦，当然有，，，啊，，我想问这个工作的上班时间是
否可以灵活掌握？
Bob: Oh, of course. Um… Yes, I would like to know if the hours of
duty are flexible.
杰斯丁： 是的，这个职位是三个班次轮换，另外在忙的时候也要
加班。
Justine: Yes, we have three shifts, and there is also overtime work
available when we’re very busy.
鲍勃： 我知道了。
Bob: That’s good.
杰斯丁： 鲍勃，我对你的资历很感兴趣，我们会在明天上午的时
候电话通知你面试的结果。
Justine: I’m very impressed with your qualifications Bob. We’ll ring you
and let you know the outcome tomorrow morning.
鲍勃： 谢谢您。再见。
Bob: Thank you. Goodbye.
杰斯丁： 再见。
Justine: See you later.
一般来说在面试结束之前考官都会给你一个提问的机会，你最好准
备一个相关的问题，这样也可以表明你对这个工作职位真的有兴
趣。但是在这里我要特别提醒您的是切忌不要询问薪水的数目。这
个问题你可以在申请工作之前自己设法查清楚。通常来说你可以利

用提问的机会问一些诸如工作时间，你将要和多少人一起共事这一
类无伤大雅的问题。你注意到了吗，鲍勃在提问时是以这样的短语
开始的：I was wondering …… I would like to know ……这两
个短语的意思都是：我想问问。。。。让我们跟着老师一起来练
习。
I was wondering if…
I was wondering if the hours are flexible.
I would like to know...
I would like to know if the hours are flexible.
现在让我们再听一遍这段对话的最后一部分。请在鲍勃的话之后重
复他的句子。
Justine: Now, is there anything you would like to ask me?
Bob: Yes, I was wondering if anyone has heard what happened to
Leo?
Justine: I mean questions relating to this position, Bob.
Bob: Oh, of course. Um… Yes, I would like to know if the hours of
duty are flexible.
Justine: Yes, we have three shifts, and there is also overtime work
available when we’re very busy.
Bob: That’s good.
Justine: I’m very impressed with your qualifications Bob. We’ll ring you
and let you know the outcome tomorrow morning.
Bob: Thank you. Goodbye.
Justine: See you later.
第二十六课到这里就要结束了，现在让我们把在第二十五课及第二
十六课中学习的对话内容完整地听一遍。
Justine: Come in, Bob. I’m Justine Asker, the manager. You can call
me Justine.
Bob: Pleased to meet you.
Justine: Sit down. Firstly, Bob, can I ask which job you are applying for?
Bob: I’m applying for the receptionist position.
Justine: I see that you have a Diploma in Hospitality. Have you done any
front desk work before?
Bob: I have work experience in front desk. You have my supervisor’s
report there. This will be my first paid position.
Justine: And why do you want to work at the Plaza Hotel?
Bob: Because it has a great reputation; not just for its service but as a
good place to work.
Justine: I’m glad to hear it. Bob, what strengths do you think you would
bring to the job?
Bob: Oh, ah. I am patient and I’ve been told I put clients at ease.

Justine: Uh huh. And what do you see as your weaknesses?
Bob: Do you mean, what am I not so good at?
Justine: Yes.
Bob: Well, I understand English much better than I speak it at the
moment. But I study at home and I look forward to learning
more on the job
Justine: Excellent. Now, Bob, I’m going to ask you a hypothetical
question. Would you compromise your own safety for the
comfort of your guests?
Bob: Do you mean, like the Legendary Leo, who jumped into shark
infested waters to save a guest’s hat?
Justine: Something like that.
Bob : If I must.
Justine: I don’t think you would be expected to show that level of
enthusiasm, Bob. Leo was an exceptional worker, but very
impetuous.
Bob: In that case, I would make sure I know the health and safety
requirements associated with my position and follow hotel
procedures.
Justine: Very good.
Justine: Now, is there anything you would like to ask me?
Bob: Yes, I was wondering if anyone has heard what happened to
Leo?
Justine: I mean questions relating to this position, Bob.
Bob: Oh, of course. Um… Yes, I would like to know if the hours of
duty are flexible.
Justine: Yes, we have three shifts, and there is also overtime work
available when we’re very busy.
Bob: That’s good.
Justine: I’m very impressed with your qualifications Bob. We’ll ring you
and let you know the outcome tomorrow morning.
Bob: Thank you. Goodbye.
Justine: See you later.
以上您听到的就是“寻工面试”这段对话的全部内容。这个讲座到
这里也就全部结束了。我想告诉您的是鲍勃最终如愿以偿地得到了
他所申请的这份工作，利奥也在墨尔本留学期间找到了自己的终身
伴侣。她的名字叫梅。梅是一个非常耐心和蔼的人，巧合的是她和
利奥都来自同一个城市，但却是在墨尔本学习服务业课程学位时认
识并终成眷属的。好了，我们言归正传，现在请您跟着英语老师一
起练习下列英语的短语。
Follow procedures
Follow procedures
Follow procedures, sir!
Health and safety

Health and safety
Health and safety first!
Follow procedures
Follow procedures
Follow procedures, sir!
Health and safety
Health and safety
