托福TPO/Official 35 Con 1听力原文What does the woman learn about staff members of the Visualization Project?【新东方在线】

旁白：请听一段学生和顾问之间的对话。

Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and a counselor.

雇员：Tina，你好，很高兴见到你！

Employee:Oh, Tina, yeah, good to meet you!

你在电话里告诉我说你在找兼职对吗？

You told me on the phone that you are looking for a part-time position?

学生：是的！我的室友在餐厅工作，她听说这个学期会有一份兼职工作招人。

Student:Yeah! My roommate works at the dining hall, and she heard a part-time job might be opening up there for this new semester.

雇员：是有一个，但是几天前就招满了。

Employee:There was one, but that got filled a couple days ago.

问题是我需要通过兼职赚点钱。

The thing is I've got to do something to pay for expenses.

你看，我总会去查看申请者的课表，来确定她们是合格的全职学生。

You see, I always have to check the class schedules of potential applicants to make sure they are full time students in good standing.

而你上学期的课表嘛，我想说的是，你修了巨量的课，有计算机的课、非洲历史的课、动物学的课、物理学的课。

And your schedule this past semester, I mean, everything from computer science, to African history, to zoology and physics.

你是怎么做到能修这么多的课程的？

How do you manage with such a heavy class load?

当然如果我找到了兼职的话，我可能需要退掉一些课，回归正常课量的课表了。

If I do get a job, of course, I may have to cut back to a more normal schedule.

但是，你知道，很多课都很棒，值得一学。

But, you know, there're so many great subjects to learn about.

学生：是的！让我专修一门课是很困难的。

Student:Yeah! It's gonna be hard for me to pick just one thing to specialize in.

You're pretty comfortable on a computer, right?

学生：是的！我确实擅长这个。所以？

Student:Sure! I'm pretty good at that. Why?

雇员：是这样，上周视觉化项目的人给我打了个电话。

Employee:Well, last week I got a call from the folks over at the visualization project.

They wanna add a couple part-timers to their staff.

雇员：是的，他们要帮助各个部门的教授把一些信息转化成学生可以看懂的东西。

Employee:Yes, they help professors from all different departments turn information into something their students can see.

你知道，除了板书，越来越多的教授想把信息展示在屏幕上。

You know, instead of just writing on a black board, more and more professors want to project information onto a screen.

一些教授在自己擅长领域很出色，但是他们的计算机技术就……

Some professors are really good in their own subject areas, but when it comes to computers, well...

学生：我了解了。所以他们想让视觉化项目组做什么呢？

Student:I get the picture. So they use the visualization project to create what?

雇员：是的。经济走势图或者人口走势图。

Employee:Right. Graphs of economic trends for instance or population growth.

有时候会需要动态的图，比如说展示中国和地中海地区每条路线的交易量在几个世纪间是怎么下滑的。

And sometimes dynamic maps, maps that change on screen to show for instance how trade ebbed and flowed over the centuries along various routes between China and the Mediterranean.

雇员：是的！而且这只是要为课堂讲授做的工作。

Employee:Yeah! And that's just what they do for classroom lectures.

你可能还会被要求帮教授们收集一些研究数据并做成可视化模型。

A project staffer might also be asked for to help professors pool together some of their research data and model that visually.

他们会要求把调查成果做成图，或者是可以展示某些关系的动态图，还有例如他们仅仅看纸上的数据时可能会忽略动物迁徙新规律。

They claim that putting their research in a map, for example, or a moving image helps them see connections, new relationships in data on, say, animal migration patterns that they might miss if they're just looking numbers on a piece of paper.

只要保证在教授要求的时间点之前做完就行。

They just have to make sure it's all done by the time the professor needs it.

所以我要给你电话联系他们吗？

So shall I give you the number to call to get in touch with these people?

学生：哇，你居然帮我找了一份这么好的兼职吗？

我一开始仅仅是想找个在餐厅打工的活儿而已。

To think I came in just hoping to get something in the dining hall.

What does the man imply about some professors?

What does the Visualization Project provide to professors?

What does the woman learn about staff members of the Visualization Project?

What does the man mean when he says this?
