托福TPO/Official 57 Con 2听力原文Why does the man need to talk to his sister?【新东方在线】

旁白：听一段学生和图书管理员之间的对话。

NARRATOR:Listen to a conversation between a student and a librarian.

图书管理员：您好，有什么可以帮助您的吗？

学生：我需要在一本名为《当代语言学研究》的期刊上找到一篇文章，我翻遍了所有的书库，但我到处都找不到。

MALE STUDENT:I need to find an article in a journal called Contemporary Research in Linguistics, and I’ve looked all over the stacks for it, but I can’t find it anywhere.

您能看看是不是已经借出去了吗？

Could you look to see if it’s been checked out?

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:OK, that may not be the problem.

学生：但是我刚刚查看了那里的计算机目录，它在那里列出并且它说它是可用的。

MALE STUDENT:But I just checked the computer catalog over there, and it’s listed there, and it says it’s available.

图书管理员：您查找图书定位编号时，您看到字母 LAN 了吗？

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:When you looked up the book locator number, did you see the letters L-A-N?

男学生：哦，好的。是的，我看到了，但我不知道它是什么意思。

MALE STUDENT:Oh, OK, yeah I saw that, but I didn’t know what it meant.

图书管理员：这意味着书在语言部门的图书馆里。我们这里没有。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Oh that means it’s in the language department library. We don’t have it here.

图书管理员：是的，这所大学实际上有九个图书馆，所以您在找书的时候总是要检查图书馆的代码。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Yes, the university actually has nine libraries, so you always have to check the library code when you’re looking for a book.

男学生：哦，好吧。它可以借，但不在这个图书馆？

MALE STUDENT:Oh, OK. … But it is available, but not in this library?

图书管理员：是的，但我们这里确实有许多其他语言学期刊。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Right. But we do have a number of other linguistics journals here.

男学生：不，我就需要这个。这篇文章在我已经阅读过的许多其他文章中都提到过，我想看看这篇原文，以防万一我能找到更多的东西用在自己的论文里。

MALE STUDENT:No, I need this one specifically; this article’s mentioned in a bunch of other articles I’ve already read, and I wanted to have a look at the original—this one—you know, in case there’s more stuff I could use in my paper.

图书管理员：好的。好吧，所有的大学图书馆都共享资源，所以，如果您愿意的话，我可以打电话给语言系图书馆，把它寄过来，后天中午左右就能拿到手，提供给您。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:OK, well you know all the university libraries share their resources, so if you like I could call the language department library and ask them to send it over, and we’d have it for you here oh day after tomorrow around noon.

学生：谢谢了，但我等不了那么久。

MALE STUDENT:Oh I appreciate that, but I can’t wait that long.

我需要这篇文章来写论文，后天就是截止日。

I need this article for a paper I’m writing that’s due the day after tomorrow.

嗯……您能告诉我语言系图书馆在哪里吗？

Um, could you tell me where the language department library is?

图书管理员：当然，它在皮尔逊礼堂地下室的另一个校区，听力实验室对面。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Sure. It’s on the other campus, in the basement of Pearson Hall, across from the listening lab.

但我估计你今天来不及赶到那里了。

But I doubt you’ll be able to make it over there in time today.

男学生：确实赶不到，特别我还没有车。但我姐姐有，而且我很确定她会借给我。

MALE STUDENT:No, especially since I don’t have a car. But my sister does, and I’m pretty sure she’d let me borrow it…

如果我明天早上第一件事就去那里，我能马上借出吗？

If I go over there first thing tomorrow morning, will I be able to check it out right away?

图书管理员：肯定可以的。只要确保您随身携带学生证即可。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:I don’t see why not. Just make sure you have your student ID with you.

男学生：好的，就这么定了。非常感谢你。

MALE STUDENT:OK. That’s what I’ll do then. Thank you very much.

Why does the man go to talk to the librarian?

What does the man learn about the library’s computer catalog?

What does the librarian offer to do to help the man?

Why does the man need to talk to his sister?
