本週話題焦點:退休與面試新人  (找工作Part1)


Dan and Cindy are taking their lunch break together at a small cafe close to their office building. Dan takes out the newspaper while they are waiting to be served.
Dan 和 Cindy 正一起在一間靠近他們辦公大樓的咖啡廳內午休。在他們等待服務生時,Dan 拿出報紙來。

Cindy: So…anything interesting in the newspaper today?
Cindy:嗯... 今天報紙裡有什麼有趣的新聞嗎?

Dan: I'm not reading the news. I'm looking at the classifieds.
Dan:我沒有在看新聞。我是在看分類廣告。

Cindy: Oh. Are you looking for something to buy?
Cindy:喔,你在找什麼要買的東西嗎?

Dan: No, I'm looking at the employment ads.
Dan:沒有,我是在看求職廣告。

Cindy: Why? Are you looking for a new job?
Cindy:為什麼?你在找新工作嗎?

Dan: Well, I'm just curious to see what's out there. I'm getting bored with my job and I'd like to find a job with a higher salary and better benefits.
Dan:嗯,我只是好奇想看看外面的世界有什麼。我對我的工作感到有點厭煩了,我想要找一份高薪一點、福利也比較好的工作。

Cindy: Have you tried searching for jobs on the net? I don't think that the newspaper is a good place to search for jobs.
Cindy:你有試過上網找工作嗎?我想報紙不是一個找工作的好地方。

Dan: You're right. I'll surf the net tonight when I get home.
Dan:你說的對。我今晚回家以後會上網看看。

Cindy: Have you ever searched on jobhunt.com? A lot of my friends have found jobs from that Web site.
Cindy:你有搜尋過 jobhunt.com 嗎?我有很多的朋友是從那個網站找到工作的。

Dan: No, I've never heard of that site before. I'll write it down and check it later tonight. Thanks a lot!
Dan:沒有耶,我之前從來都沒聽說過那個網站。我會把它記下來然後今天晚上查看看。謝啦!

Cindy: No problem. Let me know if you find anything interesting!
Cindy:別客氣。如果你有找到什麼有趣的東西,讓我知道喔!

(我沒有在看新聞。我是在看分類廣告。)

例:You can place a classified on our website at no charge.

「登廣告」可以說成 "place a classified"。分類廣告也可以說成 "classified ad"。

2. ad  (n.) 廣告

例:I'm looking at the employment ads.
(我在看求職廣告。)

例:You can read the want ads to learn general information about available jobs
(你可以看徵人廣告,了解一些職缺的訊息。)

3. curious  (adj.) 好奇的

例:I'm just curious to see what's out there.
(我只是好奇想看看外面的世界有什麼。)

例:He is like a boy, always curious about everything.
(他像個小男孩,總是對所有事物感到好奇。)
