托福TPO/Official 32 Con 1听力原文According to the woman, what is a reason the man’s textbook may not be added to the buyback list?【新东方在线】

旁白：听一段学生和书店工作人员的对话。

Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and a bookstore employee.

工作人员：有什么我可以帮你的么？

学生：是的。我想要卖回来一本教科书。

Student: Yeah. I need to sell back a textbook.

Are you the person I speak to about that?

工作人员：是的，是我。我们现在还不能回购教科书，因为书店回购的时间要到下周四开始。

Employee: I am. But we can’t buy textbooks back just yet, because the bookstore’s buyback period isn’t until next Thursday.

学生：我还以为是从这周开始。

工作人员：回购只在每个学期课程结束后的最后一个星期。

Employee: It is only in the last week of the semester after classes are over.

学生：噢，好吧，你能告诉我这本书会不会在回购清单上？

Student: Oh. Well, can you tell me if this book will be on the buyback list?

But we are still putting the list together.

教授必须明确地告诉我们下个学期他们还需要的书，但是他们的截止日期还有几天。

Professors have to tell us what books they’ll definitely need again next semester, and the deadline for them to let us know isn’t for a couple of days.

所以我现在有的清单并不完整。

So the list I have here is not really complete.

学生：经济学入门，Murphy教授的课。

Student: Intro to economics, with Professor Murphy.

工作人员：Murphy教授。好的，我之前查看过，我知道她还没有针对那门课给回音。

Employee: Professor Murphy. OK. I checked earlier and I know she hasn’t gotten back to us on that class yet.

所以我不知道她下一次还会不会用同一本书。

So we don’t know if she’ll use the same book next time.

通常如果一本教科书有新版本书来了，教授就会用那一本。

Usually if an updated edition of a textbook is available, professors will go for that one.

学生：额……如果这本书结果不在回购书单上，我可以做些什么？

Student: Um…so if this book doesn’t end up on the buyback list, what can I do?

我在这本书上花了超过100美金，我想要拿回点本。

I spent over a hundred dollars for it, and I want to get something back.

工作人员：如果教授没有为她的课程指定这本书，我们会为批发商回购这本书，他们会把这本书放到别的大学书店去卖。

Employee: Well, if a professor didn’t assign it for a class here, we could buy back for a wholesaler who would distribute it for sale at another university bookstore.

工作人员：不管怎么样，如果Murphy教授把它放到回购清单上，对你来说很重要的是下周四一定要尽早来。

Employee: Anyway…if Professor Murphy does put it on the list, it is important that you come in as early as possible next Thursday.

There’s only a limited number of books we would buy back.

我们一旦为下个学期回购足够数量的书籍之后，我们就不再回购了。

Once we get the number of books we need for next semester, we would stop buying.

学生：好的。那么那本书我可以卖多少钱？

Student: OK. So how much money will I get for the book?

工作人员：如果它在回购清单上，我们会付全新书籍的50％价格来回购。

Employee: Well, if it’s on the buyback list, we’ll pay fifty percent of what the new price was.

但是那也取决于这本书的情况，所以这本是要尽可能地被清理。

But that also depends on what condition the book is in, so it needs to be cleaned up as much as possible.

工作人员：因为二手书会有磨损，水渍、破封面、黄的加亮……

Employee: Because used books show wear and tear, you know, water stains, scruffy covers, yellow highlighting…

你真的有必要去确保书里面没有铅笔印记。

You really need to make sure there are no pencil marks on the book.

你能够卖的价钱取决于它的外部状况。

The price you can get for a text depends on the shape it’s in.

学生：你的意思是我要把所有铅笔记号都擦掉？

Student: You mean I have to erase all the pencil marks?

工作人员：如果你想要卖个最好的价钱……

Employee: If you want the best price for it…

学生：如果你们发现这本书太破了不想回购怎么办？

Student: And what if you decide the book is too beat-up and don’t buy it back?

工作人员：这种情况的确会发生。

额……你还可以试着去做的一件事情就是在学生报上面放一个广告，看看你是不是能够直接把书卖给另一个学生。

Hmm…well, one more thing you can try is to place an ad in the student newspaper to see if you can sell it directly to another student.

According to the woman, when are textbooks added to the buyback list?

According to the woman, what is a reason the man’s textbook may not be added to the buyback list?

What does the woman suggest the man should do to have the best chance of selling his book to the bookstore?
