商务英语情景口语 面试结果（1）（在线收听）

PH: So...what did you think? 

MB: Well... between Sarah Timms and Daniel Watson – I think the choice is pretty obvious! 

PH: Yes – so do I. Watson looked so good on paper... 

MB: He seemed very good when I first spoke to him too.. 

PH: First impressions often lie! MB: Indeed...I think a lot of his CV was – how shall we say? “Counterfactual” 

PH: Yes – it just wasn’t true! You should never lie on your CV... 

MB: He had very good references, though – very strange. 

PH: I guess some people just like that sort of style, but he wouldn’t fit in with us...I mean, it’s important to be confident – but he was overconfident. 

MB: I couldn’t agree more. His body language was all wrong...he came across as arrogant. 

PH: Then he gave very vague answers – no specific details of what exactly he’d done in his job... 

MB: Whereas Sarah Timms... 

PH: ...knew exactly what she was talking about. 

MB: Yes, she was very convincing, self-assured, but not arrogant. 

PH: She’d clearly done some research on the company, and knew what she was talking about. 

MB: I thought her presentation was excellent. 

PH: Yes, it was, but I am a little worried about how much experience she has... 

MB: Yes, true, but she seems very ready to take on the challenges the role would offer her. 

PH: So? Who do we give the job to? 

MB: Sarah! 

PH: Yes, I agree entirely! 

MB: Great! I’ll phone her straight away offering the post...and I’ll write a rejection to Mr. Watson! 

PH: Ok. 

PH: 那么你觉得怎么样呢？

MB: 嗯，在Sarah Timms和Daniel Watson之间，我相信答案已经很明显了。

PH: 嗯，我也觉得是这样。Watson的履历相当不错。

MB: 我一开始和他谈话的时候他表现也不错。

PH: 第一印象通常是靠不住的！

MB: 的确如此。我觉得他的履历上的很多东西都是…怎么说，伪造的。

PH：是啊！很多都不是事实！你不应该在履历上作假的!

MB: 他有很多好的推荐信，尽管很奇怪。

PH: 我猜有些人大概就是喜欢那样的风格，但他不是我们要的合适人选，我的意思是，自信很重要，但是他太自信了。

MB: 我完全同意你的观点。他的肢体语言完全错误，让人感觉很傲慢。

PH: 而且他的答案模棱两可。没有说明白他到底干了什么…

MB: 换句话说，Sarah Timms就…

PH: 完全知道自己在说什么.

MB: 她很有说服力，很自信，而且一点都不骄傲。

PH: 很明显她对公司做了一些调查，知道自己在说什么。

MB:我觉得她的演讲很精彩。

PH: 是的，但是对她的经验我有点担心。

MB: 恩，是的。但她似乎准备好迎接这份工作会带来的挑战。

PH: 所以，我们的决定是?

MB: Sarah! 

PH: 恩，我完全同意！

MB: 我会马上打电话给她，告诉她她被录用了！并给Mr. Watson写封回绝信！

PH: 好的。
