- A: Zhèizhōng huà xiànzài hěn liúxíng, kěshi wǒ xiǎng zhè huà bú tài duì. 这种话现在很流行可是我想这话不太对 This kind of talk is very popular these days, but I don’t think it’s very true.
- B: Wèishénme? Yǒude rén zài dàxuéli pǐnmìng niàn shū, xiàng women Jiā duìmiànde Zhōu Xian-sheng, duì shùxué nàme you yān-jiū, déle shuòshì, boshì, hái bu shi zhǎobudào gōngzuò! 为什么?有的人在大学里拼命念书像我们家对面的周先生对数学那么有研究得了硕士,博士,还不是找不到工作 Why not? Some people study like mad at a university, like Mr. Zhōu who lives across from us; he’s such an expert in mathematics, he’s got a Master’s degree and a Ph.D., and isn’t he still unable to find a job!
- A: Zhōu Xianshengde qíngxing gēn biérén bù tong, suírǎn tā xiāngdāng you zhīshi, kěshi tā bù xǐhuande gōngzuò tā jiu bú zuò, nà dāngrán bù róngyi zhǎo-dào gōngzuò. 周先生的情形跟别人不同虽然他相当有知识可是他不喜欢的工作,他就不做那当然不容易找到工作 Mr. Zhou’s situation is different from other people’s. Although he is quite knowledgeable, he won’t take a Job he doesn’t like. So of course it isn’t easy for him to find a job.
- B: Duì le, tā bù xǐhuan zuò lǎoshǐ, tā Jiù xǐhuan xiě wénzhāng, zài Zhōngxuéshēng zhōu-kānshang wǒ hái kànjianguo tāde wénzhāng ne! 对了,他不喜欢做老师他就喜欢写文章在中学生周刊上我还看见过他的文章呢 Right. He doesn’t like to be a teacher, he just likes to write articles. I’ve even seen his articles in the weekly High School Student!
- A: Tāde wénzhāng hǎo bu hǎo? 他的文章,好不好? Are his articles good?
- B: Hǎo, kǎshi bù rongyì dong, zhōngxuéshēng kàn zhèiyangde wénzhāng tài nan le. 好,可是不容易懂中学生看这样的文章太难了 Yes, but they’re not easy to understand. They’re too hard for high school students to read.
- A: Suóyi, nǐ bù néng shuō Zhōu Xianshengde qíngxing jiù shi dàjiāde qíngxing. Wǒ xiǎng, kéyi zhèiyang shuō: niànguo hěn duō shūde rén bù yídìng you hěn hǎode gōngzuǒ. Kěshi duō niàn yidiǎnr shū duì zhǎo gōngzuǒ yídìng you bāngzhu. 所以你不能说周先生的情形就是大家的情形.我想可以这样说:念过很多书的人不一定有很好的工作.可是多念一点书对找工作一定有帮助 So you can’t say that Mr. Zhou’s situation is everyone's situation. I think you might say this: someone who has had a lot of education doesn't necessarily get a very good job. But getting more education will certainly be helpful in looking for a job.
- B: Kěshi, wǒde jīge tongxué gāozhōng méiyou niǎnwán jiu zuǒ shile, xiànzài tāmende shēnghuo dōu bū yòng kào fùmǔ le, tāmen dōu dūlì le. 可是我的几个同学 高中没有念完就做事了 现在他们的生活都不用靠父母 他们都独立了 But several classmates of mine started working before they had finished high school, and now they don't have to depend on their parents to support them; they're all independent.
- A: Dànshi wǒ xiǎng, shèhuì hǎishi xūyào you zhīshide rén, shèhuì yuè fādá yuè xūyào you zhīshi. Nǐ shuō duì bu dui? 但是我想 社会还是需要有知识的人 社会越发达,越需要有知识 你说对不对? But I think that society still needs knowledgeable people. The more developed society is, the more it needs knowledge. Don't you think so?
- B: Duì! 对 Right!
- A: Name hǎo le, nǐ niàn dàxuéde shi zěnmeyàng? 那么好了,你念大学的事怎么样? All right then, what about the matter of your going to college?
- B: Mm . . . wǒ zài xiǎngyixiǎng. 嗯,我再想一想 Mm . . . I'll think it over some more.
- A: Hǎo, women míngtiān zài tantan. 好,我们明天再谈谈 Okay, we'll talk more about it tomorrow.
