DIALOGUE 75

Parttime Work

1--How many hours a week are you working at the

moment?

2--Erm--well I'm working Monday to Friday...

plus...

1---Is it...are you working more at the moment?

2--Yes, I'm doing three, well I usually do three

evenings a week, but the evenings, erm. that

I'm working are usually a little bit longer

than any other time of the year, and I will

do the occasional Saturday, 'cause obviously

Saturday's a popular day.

===================================

注解：

1)occasional：偶爾的，非經(jīng)常的。注意這句話中文

與英文的說法區(qū)別很大。

2)'cause=because

3)a popular day：原義指星期六是假日，顧客較多，

因而商店，餐館也需打工的學(xué)生干活。譯文與原文略有

不同。

===================================

譯文

1--目前,你一個星期工作多少個小時?

2--哦,我從星期一到星期五工作,加上...

1--是嗎?你目前工作時間較多吧?

2--是的,我現(xiàn)在一個星期有三個晚上打工.我通常

也是一星期三個晚上打工。不過眼下晚上工作的

時間比其它季節(jié)晚上時間要長些。偶爾星期六也

干活，因為顯然星期六工作好找。
