托福TPO/Official 26 Con 1听力原答案解析-音频翻译【新东方在线】

旁白：听一段学生和大学打印店工作人员的对话。

Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and a university print shop employee.

学生：我看到你在学校报纸上的广告了。

Student: Hi. I saw your ad in the campus newspaper.

工作人员：噢，我们现在没有什么职位空着。

Employee: Oh. We don't have any job opening right now.

学生：不是的，我指的是另一个广告，关于你们为学生提供的服务。

Student: Oh, no. I meant the other ad, about the services you provide for students.

我在学校辅导中心做数学辅导。

You see, I have been working at the campus tutoring center as a math tutor.

但是，事情有所变化，包括我的时间表。

But things have changed, including my schedule.

现在我想开始独立做辅导工作。

And now I want to start doing tutoring work independently.

但是为了开始我自己的生意，我需要让大家知道这件事。

But in order to, basically, start my own business, I need to get the word out.

学生：我在想我应该印一些可以发给别人的东西出来。

Student: I was thinking I should get something printed up that I can hand out to people.

工作人员：事实上，我们刚为一些想要做同样事情的人打印了一些传单。

Employee: Ah. Well, actually, I just printed up some great-looking flyers for someone doing the same thing.

我猜我随后可以将他们张贴在校园里。

I guess then I could post them around the campus.

工作人员：是的。你也可以把他们发出去。

Employee: Yeah. And you can hand them out too.

我上星期为某个人做了很新颖的东西。

I did something really neat for someone last week.

她不想走传统路线，比如商业名片、传单这样的，所以我们为她特别定制了铅笔。

She didn't want to go the traditional route, you know, business cards, flyers, so we customized pencils for her.

工作人员：是的，在铅笔上印了小的广告词。

Employee: Yeah. You know, a little message printed on the pencil.

工作人员：但是，你要知道，这不是我们这里最便宜的选择。

Employee: Yeah. But you should know, it's not our cheapest option.

Oh, and you know those little sticky notes?

我觉得那些明亮的纸张会是注意力很好的获得者。

I think those bright pieces of paper would be real attention getters.

你知道的，学生一直需要用它们，那么他们对于生意来说应该是不错的。

You know, student use them all the time, so they should be good for business.

工作人员：所以你有一些选择。

学生：是的。那么名片怎么样？

Student: Right. Well, what about business cards?

她在镇上的这个地方弄的名片，但是它们太贵了。

And she got them at this place in town, but they were kind of expensive.

Well, I don't know what your friend paid.

不过我们可以做一些非常简单的，它不会很贵。

But we could do something real simple and it wouldn't be much.

标准的设计大概是250张20美元。

Like for a batch of 250 for one of our standard designs, 20 dollars maybe.

工作人员：还有其他一些选择可能会影响价格。

Employee: Now, there are some other choices that'll affect the cost.

你知道的，不同的背景，颜料的使用，类似的东西。

You know, like different background patters, using color ink, that's sort of thing.

这个也取决于你想包含多少字。

And it also depends on how many words you want to include.

学生：好的。我知道我想印点什么。

Student: Ok. Well, I know what I want them to say.

但是我正在想，我有点喜欢铅笔的那个做法。

But I am just thinking, I kind of like that pencil idea.

工作人员：是的，我觉得很新颖。

当然，你只能将你的名字、电话种类等，对于你的情况来说，数学辅导印在上面。

Now, of course you can only fit your name and phone number, and like, in your case, math tutoring on it.

学生：是的。我可以为名片做个性定制的，是吗？

Student: Right. Well, I could custom design the business cards through, right?

她说她就在那家打印店的电脑上设计的。

She said she designed them at the computer right there at the print shop.

工作人员：你在这里也可以这么操作。

Employee: Well, you can do that here too.

但是，对于你的生意来说个性定制比起标准设计可能是一个更大的投资。

But a custom design would be a bigger investment for your business than one of our standard designs.

我对名片很感兴趣，那么我可以看一下标准设计吗？

I am interested in business cards, so can I look at the standard designs?

Why does the student go to speak to the man?

What does the man imply about customized sticky notes?

What does the man imply are the disadvantages of using pencils to advertise?

What did the student learn from her friend’s experience?

Listen again to part of the conversation. Then answer the question. What can be inferred about the student when she says this:

Narrator 
Listen to a conversation between a student and a university print shop employee. 
Student 
Hi. I saw your ad in the campus newspaper. 
Employee 
Oh. We don’t have any job opening right now. 
Student 
Oh, no. I meant the other ad, about the services you provide for students. You see, I have been working at the campus tutoring center as a math tutor. But things have changed, including my schedule.

Employee 
Ok. 
Student 
I was thinking I should get something printed up that I can hand out to people. 
Employee 
Ah. Well, actually, I just printed up some great-looking flyers for someone doing the same thing. 
Student 
Flyers. Yeah, that’s an idea. I guess then I could post them around the campus. 
Employee 
Yeah. And you can hand them out too. But, oh, you know what? I did something really neat for someone last week. She didn’t want to go the traditional route, you know, business cards, flyers, so we customized pencils for her. 
Student 
Pencils? 
Employee 
Yeah. You know, a little message printed on the pencil. 
Student 
Oh, that’s cool. 
Employee 
Yeah. But you should know, it’s not our cheapest option. Oh, and you know those little sticky notes? 
Student 
You do those too? 
Employee 
Well, we did once. I think those bright pieces of paper would be real attention getters. You know, student use them all the time, so they should be good for business. I don’t know why we haven’t done more. 
Student 
Wow. 
Employee 
So you’ve got some options. 
Employee 
Yeah. And you can hand them out too. But, oh, you know what? I did something really neat for someone last week. She didn’t want to go the traditional route, you know, business cards, flyers, so we customized pencils for her. 
Student 
Pencils? 
Employee 
Yeah. You know, a little message printed on the pencil.

Employee 
Well, we did once. I think those bright pieces of paper would be real attention getters. You know, student use them all the time, so they should be good for business. I don’t know why we haven’t done more. 
Student 
Right. Well, what about business cards? My friend has these business cards. She does tutoring too. And she got them at this place in town, but they were kind of expensive. 
Employee 
For business card? Well, I don’t know what your friend paid. But we could do something real simple and it wouldn’t be much. Like for a batch of 250 for one of our standard designs, 20 dollars maybe. 
Student 
20 dollars sounds okay. 
Employee 
Now, there are some other choices that’ll affect the cost. You know, like different background patters, using color ink, that sort of thing. And it also depends on how many words you want to include. 
Student 
Ok. Well, I know what I want them to say. But I am just thinking, I kind of like that pencil idea. 
Employee 
Yeah. I thought it was neat. Now, of course you can only fit your name and phone number, and like, in your case, math tutoring on it.

Right. Well, I could custom design the business cards through, right? That’s what my friend did. She said she designed them at the computer right there at the print shop.

Student 
Well, I don’t know. I am interested in business cards, so can I look at the standard designs?
