A Now, Miss Childs passed on your resume to me and I’ve had the chance to look it over and I must say I’m quite impressed.

蔡爾茲小姐請把你的簡歷遞給我。我能有機會來仔細看看，我必須說我對你印象深刻。

B Thank you very much. I’ve tried to keep it short and clear. If there’s any questions please feel free to ask me.

非常感謝。我盡量讓簡歷簡單明了。如果有問題，請盡管問我。

A Well yes, I do have a number of questions, but perhaps first you could give me a brief overview I’d like to get a little bit of an idea of your background.

好的，我有很多問題，但是也許你應(yīng)該先將剛要向我們介紹下，我想知道一點你的背景。

B Yes, of course. Well as you can see from the resume I’m 27 and grew up in Brooklyn, New York, although our family moved to London when I was quite young, at around sixteen.

是的，當然可以。從簡歷上你可以得知，我27歲，在紐約的布魯克林區(qū)出生和長大，盡管我很小的時候家里就搬到倫敦了，我大約16歲。

A Ah I see, so you were actually educated in Europe?

我明白了，你實際上是在歐洲接受的教育？

B Yes precisely. Although I was born in the US, I would definitely call London home. But as you see I’ve actually spent a lot of my life moving from country to country. My Father was in the oil business before he retired so we also spent a number of years in Saudi Arabia too.

是的，雖然我在美國出生，我更愿將倫敦稱作家。你可能看到我花了很多時間從一個國家去另1個國家。我父親退休前是做石油生意的，所以我們也在Saudi Arabia呆了很多年。

A Very interesting. So it seems you had quite an adventurous childhood.

很有趣?？雌饋砟愕耐瓿錆M冒險經(jīng)歷。

B Absolutely! We were never still for too long. But now I’m really looking to settle down.

是的，我們從來沒在1個地方呆太長時間。但是現(xiàn)在我真的想定居下來。

A I see. okay, well let’s move on to discuss your education shall we?

我明白，我們接著來談?wù)撃愕慕逃?，好嗎?/P>
