1 .Listen to a conversation between a student and an employee in the biology department.
听一段学生和生物系员工的对话。
第2段
1 .Student: Hi, I'm looking for Dr James. Is he here?
学生：你好，我找詹姆斯博士。他在吗？
2 .Employee: No, he's at lunch. Can I help you?
员工：不在，他去吃午饭了。需要帮忙吗？
3 .Student:: I don't know. I was told to talk to Dr James. He's in charge of all of the research projects done with fish, right?
学生：我不确定。有人让我找詹姆斯博士。他是负责所有鱼类研究项目的负责人，对吧？
4 .Employee: He supervises the fisheries laboratory, but he's not involved with every research project that's being done there. He studies sharks, mostly.
员工：他主管渔业实验室，但并不是每个研究项目都参与。他主要研究鲨鱼。
5 .Student: Oh, well, then maybe he's not the right person. I want to do this study on shellfish, um, the composition of the shells of different species. So I was hoping to get a job in the lab so that I could do some hands-on research. Is there someone I should talk to who specializes in shellfish?
学生：哦，那可能我找错人了。我想做一个关于贝类的研究，不同物种的贝壳成分分析。所以希望能申请实验室工作，做些实际动手操作的研究。有没有专门研究贝类的专家可以咨询？
6 .Employee: Well, actually, you'll need to see Dr James, because he makes all personnel decisions at the lab. But if you're looking for a paying job, those have already been filled by work-study students, students who get financial aid from the university. Of course, if you're willing to take a volunteer job, maybe you could do some maintenance on the tanks or feed the fish in return for access to the lab. I know he's made arrangements like that with students before, but you'll have to talk to him.
员工：其实你还是得找詹姆斯博士，因为实验室的人事决定都由他做。但如果你想找有偿职位，这些已经被勤工俭学的学生，也就是拿学校助学金的学生占满了。当然，如果你愿意当志愿者，也许可以通过维护水箱或喂鱼，换取实验室的使用权。我知道他之前和学生有过类似的安排，但你得和他谈。
7 .Student: Okay, I'm a chemistry major, and if I can do this shellfish project, I can use it to fulfill my biochemistry requirement. Otherwise, I'll have to take a bio-chem class next semester, and I'd really rather take something else, but the chemistry department, well, no fish tanks over there. So that's why I'm here. So you think there might be an opening to feed the fish? Employee: It's on the weekends. It's not the best hours. You have to come in at seven on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
学生：好吧，我是化学专业的。如果能做这个贝类项目，我就能用抵生物化学课的学分，否则下学期得上一门生物化学课，我真的很想选别的课。但化学系那边可没有鱼缸，所以我才来这里。你觉得有喂鱼的职位空缺吗？ 员工：是周末的工作。时间不太好，得周六日早上7点到。
8 .Student: Seven o'clock. Wow, that's early for me. Is there anything else?
学生：7点？哇，对我来说太早了。还有其他选择吗？
9 .Employee: Well, we do need someone to clean out the tanks weekly. Of course, that's harder work, but you can come in whenever you want.
员工：我们确实也需要人每周清洁水箱。当然，这活更累，但你可以随时来。
10 .Student: Now, there's a difficult choice. I guess I'd rather get up early.
学生：真是艰难的选择啊。我宁愿早起吧。
11 .Employee: While you're here, why don't you fill out a job application? We have everyone do that, even volunteers, and Dr James will probably be back by the time you're finished. Student: Okay.
员工：既然你在这儿，填个职位申请表吧？所有人都要填，包括志愿者。你填完的时候詹姆斯博士应该回来了。 学生：好的。
12 .Employee: You know something? Do you have to do your research on shellfish?
员工：我问一下，你必须研究贝类吗？
13 .Student: I don't have to, but I'm kind of excited about it, and I know the department likes it when we come up with new ideas for research topics. Why?
学生：不一定，但我觉得这个课题很有趣，而且我知道系里喜欢学生提出新研究课题。怎么了？
14 .Employee: Well, Dr James has really been pushing for an expansion of the lab, so the university may give us extra funding for more tanks and more fish, so that we can become kind of a center for marine life studies. But since Dr James is an expert on sharks, I'm guessing that most of the new fish will be those species, and that there might be more research positions working with them, maybe even some paying ones. Student: Well, that's good to know.
员工：詹姆斯博士一直在推动实验室扩建，学校可能会给我们更多资金增加水箱和鱼类，这样我们就能成立一个海洋生物研究中心。但既然他是鲨鱼专家，我猜新增的鱼类主要是鲨鱼，可能会有更多相关研究职位，甚至有些有偿的。 学生：这信息很有用。
