  Mr. Parsons: Now, Miss Childs passed on your resume 1 to me and I’ve had the chance to look it over and I must say I’m quite impressed.

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

Mr. Parsons:  Well yes, I do have a number of questions, but perhaps first you could give me a brief overview 2 I’d like to get a little bit of an idea of your background.

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

Mr. Parsons:  Ah I see, so you were actually educated in Europe?

Rebecca:Yes precisely 3. 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 4 so we also spent a number of years in Saudi Arabia too.

Mr. Parsons:  Very interesting.  So it seems you had quite an adventurous 5 childhood.

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

Mr. Parsons:I see.  Okay, well let’s move on to discuss your education shall we?

Rebecca:Sure.


  pass on 传递

impress v.給……留下印象

feel free 放轻松

a brief overview 纲要,概要

settle down 定居下来

 


  Mr. Parsons: 蔡尔兹小姐请把你的简历递给我。我能有机会来仔细看看,我必须说我对你印象深刻。

Rebecca: 非常感谢。我尽量让简历简单明了。如果有问题,请尽管问我。

Mr. Parsons: 好的,我有很多问题,但是也许你应该先将刚要向我们介绍下,我想知道一点你的背景。

Rebecca: 是的,当然可以。从简历上你可以得知,我在纽约的布鲁克林区出生和长大,尽管我很小的时候家里就搬到伦敦了。

Mr. Parsons: 我明白了,你实际上是在欧洲接受的教育?

Rebecca: 是的,虽然我在美国出生,我更愿将伦敦称作家。你可能看到我花了很多时间从一个国家去另1个国家。我父亲退休前是做石油生意的,所以我们也在Saudi Arabia呆了很多年。

Mr. Parsons: 很有趣。看起来你的童年充满冒险经历。

Rebecca:是的,我们从来没在1个地方呆太长时间。但是现在我真的想定居下来。

Mr. Parsons: 我明白,我们接着来谈论你的教育吧,好吗?

Rebecca:当然可以。
