29、特别有价值的吗?S: I think that having to do a seminar presentation really helped me. For example, a couple of weeks ago in our marketing subject, when it was my turn to give presentation, I felt quite confident. Of course, I was still nervous but because I had done one before, I knew what to expect. Also,
30、I know I was well prepared and I had practised my timing. In fact, I think that in relation to some of the other people in my group, I did quite a good job because my overall style was quite professional.S:我认为需要一个研讨会演讲真的帮助了我。例如,几个星期前在我们的营销主题,当轮到我给演讲时 ,我感到很有信心。当然,我仍然很紧张,而是因为我之前做了一个,我知道会发生什么。同时 ,我知道我是
31、充分的准备,我已经练习我的时机。事实上,我认为,有关的其他一些人在我的小组,我做了一个很好的工作,因为我的整体风格相当专业。Pro: What about you Hiroko?职业:宽子吗?H: Mmm, thats interesting. In my group, I was really surprised by the way students did their presentations - they just read the notes aloud. Can you believe that? They didnt worry about their presentation
32、 style or keeping eye contact with their audience - and I remember that these things were really stressed to us in the course here.H:嗯,这很有趣。在我的小组,我真的很惊讶学生做演示的方式他们只是朗读笔记。你能相信吗? 他们不担心他们的演讲风格或保持眼睛接触他们的听众,我记得这些事情真的是强调我们在这里。Pro: So, how did you approach your presentation Hiroko?职业:那么,你是怎么演讲方法宽子吗?H: Well,
33、 to speak frankly, I read my notes too. At the time, it was a relief to do it this way, but actually when I had finished I didnt fell any real sense of satisfaction. I didnt feel positive about the experience at all.H:嗯,坦率地说,我读我的笔记。当时,这样做是一种解脱,但实际上,当我完成了我没有了任何真正的满足感。我没有感觉积极的经验。S: Thats a pity. You k

Not a word.S:这是一个遗憾。你知道虽然我很满意我的表现,我不太满意我的实际表现现在教程- 在整个学期我没有说什么在我们的教程中讨论。一个字也没有。H: Really, Spiros, wh
35、y is that? Do the other students talk too much?H:真的,斯皮罗,这是为什么呢?其他的学生说得太多吗?S: Its partly that, but its mostly because I have had no confidence to speak out. Their style of speaking is so differen - its not the style we were used to during the course. There are so many colloquialism（白话，口语，俗话，方言）， they
36、 not very polite and sometimes they seems to be no order in their discussion. Also they are very familiar with each other, so because they know each others habits, they can let each other into the discussion.S:这部分,但这主要是因为我没有信心说出来。说话的风格是如此的与众不同,它不是我们用来在风格。有很多口语(白话,口语 ,俗话,方言),他们不是很礼貌,有时他们似乎没有秩序的讨论。他们彼

38、ught my point was interesting and new, then the next time they actually asked for my opinion, and then it was much easier for me to be part of the discussion.H:这学期的大部分时间里,我在两个教程说绝对没有。但是最近我一直在说话,我跳。我注意到一个有趣的事情。我注意到,如果他们认为我的观点是有趣的和新的,然后下次他们询问我的意见 ,然后对我来说,这是更容易讨论的一部分。S: Thats great, Hiroko. I hope that
39、 happens for me next semester-Ill have to work hard to find some interesting points. What help you to find these ideas?史:那太好了,宽子。我希望我下个学期我将发生必须努力工作来找到一些有趣的观点。这些想法帮助你找到什么?H: I think that one thing that helped me with this was the reading. Ive had to do so much reading this semester just to help me to
40、 make sense of the lectures. At first I couldnt understand what the lecturers were talking about, so I had to turn to the books and journals. Every night I read for hours, using the lists of references that were given, and I made pages of notes. At breakfast, I read and read my notes again. This hab
41、it has helped me to follow the ideas in the lectures, and its also given me some ideas to use in the tutorials.H:我认为一件事帮助我,这是阅读。这学期我必须做很多阅读只是为了帮助我的讲座。起初我不明白老师在谈论什么,所以我不得不求助于书籍和期刊。每天晚上我读几个小时,使用引用的列表是,我做了一页的笔记。在早餐,我阅读和阅读我的笔记了。这个习惯使我的想法的讲座,也给了我一些建议使用的教程。S: But I did so much readings anyway- I dont thin

43、problem?职业:还有什么你认为我们可以添加的课程计划,帮助阅读问题 ?S: Er, theres not really anything because its my problem. I remember we were given long articles to read. We didnt like that but now I realise that reading those long articles was good preparation for the things I need to read now. Also, in class we regularly ha
44、d speed-reading tasks to do, and we kept a record of our reading speed, so the teachers were encouraging us to work on that.S:呃,没有真正的东西 ,因为它是我的问题。我记得我们长文章阅读。我们不喜欢,但现在我意识到,读那些长文章很好现在读准备我所需要的东西。另外,在课堂上我们经常有快速阅读任务,我们保持一个记录我们的阅读速度,所以老师们鼓励我们的工作。H: Thats true, Spiros, but what we read could have been diff
45、erent. Sometime in the English class I felt frustrated when I had to read articles about the environment or health or education, because I wanted to concentrate on my own field, but we didnt read anything about engineering. So, I think I wasted some time learning vocabulary I didnt need.斯皮罗 H:没错,但我们
46、阅读可能是不同的。在英语课上我感到沮丧当我不得不读关于环境或健康或教育的文章,因为我想专注于自己的领域,但我们没有任何关于工程读。所以,我认为我浪费了一些时间学习词汇我不需要。Pro: But surely this strategies you were taught for dealing with that vocabulary were helpful?正方观点:但这个策略你教词汇的处理是有用吗?H: Yes, but psychologically speaking, I would have felt much better working on reading from my o
47、wn field. What do you think Spiros?H:是的,但是心理上来说,我觉得更好的阅读来自我自己的领域。你觉得斯皮罗?S: Well, I agree. That would have helped my confidence too, and I would have been more motivated.

However, there are many other theories about the causes of mass strandings.不幸的是,这种类型的事件经常发生在一些地方,你会旅行,有时突然潮水退去,混淆了动物。然而,还有许多其他理论大规模搁浅事
