Notes 1:


 


1.Ten men applied for a job as an industrial spy.


 


有10个男人去应征产业间谍的工作。


 


美国在1996年10月制定了《经济间谍法》(Economic Espionage Act / EEA ),此法由美国联邦调查局执行,其惩罚相当严厉,以求能遏制盗取企业商业机密的不良风气。


 


industry [ˈɪndəstri] adj.产业的


 


spy [spaɪ] n. 间谍


 


economic [ˌi:kəˈnɒmɪk] adj.经济的


 


espionage [ˈespiənɑ:ʒ] n.间谍活动


 


act [ækt] n.法令


 


2.The interviewer gave each man a sealed envelope.


 


面试者给每个人一个封好的信封。


 


"interview" 是 “面谈”;"interviewer" 是“面谈者”; "interviewee"则是“被面谈的人” ,就应征工作而言.就是指“应征者”。美国人很少用interviewee,大多使用applicant或 candidate 。


 


scaled [skeɪld] adj 封口的


 


3.They were ordered to deliver it to the fifth floor.


 


他们被命令把信封送到五楼。


 


4.One man secretly disobeyed and opened his envelope.


 


有一个人偷偷得违反命令,并打开了他的信封。


 


secretly ['si:krətlɪ] adv.偷渝地


 


disobey [ˌdɪsəˈbeɪ] v.违反


 


5. It read,"You're the right person for this job. "


 


上面写着:“你是这份工作最合适的人选。”


 


read的过去式和过去分词都是read,但发音不同于原形,读[ri:d]。


 


6.Report to the personnel department immediately.


 


马上到人事部报到。


 


immediately [ɪˈmi:diətli] adv. 立刻
