Notes: 1. 对话中Peter在回答面试官关于他教育情况的问题。educational background是指"教育背景"。graduate from,从某所学校毕业。我们都知道上大学是go to college, enter这个词也可以表示上某所大学。Peter说 I entered Shanghai Polytechnics. 我就读于上海工业大学,polytechnic college 是指多科性工学院,工学院。 来源:考2. Peter 说I graduated in 1992 with a B.S. degree. 我1992年毕业并且获得了理工学士学位。B.S. degree就是Bachelor of Science的开头大写字母缩写,在写简历的时候,一定要弄清楚自己学历的英文标准翻译。一般来说,bachelor,是学士学位,也就是国内的正规院校统招本科生,master,就是硕士学位,等等。 来源:考3. What department did you study in? 你就读哪一个系?I was in Department of Physics. 我读的是物理系。这其实就相当于在问,What's your major? 你的专业是什么?可以回答:My major is Physics. 或者I major in Physics.都可以。来源:考4. 面试官一般还会问你在大学的学习成绩,How were your scores at college? 你的考试成绩怎么样?可以回答They were all excellent. 门门都是优秀。或者概括地说I'm doing well at school. 我在学校成绩很好。 来源:考5. 考官还会询问你对学校里那些科目比较感兴趣,因为这样会从侧面反应你的能力倾向。Which subject were you least interested in? 你对哪一科最不感兴趣?Peter说是中国历史,因为有太多资料要背,以至于没有任何时间去真正欣赏前人的智慧。 6. 关于这个问题你可以如实回答,当然,如果你很了解你面试的公司,说一些投其所好的科目也无伤大雅。Peter后来还获得了MBA学位,MBA我想大家都比较熟悉了,就是工商管理硕士Master of Business Administration 的开头大写字母缩写。receive a degree from,就是从某所学校获得某种学位。 7. 对话中Peter在讲述自己在大学里除了学习成绩之外其它方面的表现情况,这对考官来说,也是一个值得参考的地方。a leading position,是指"领导职位",Were you in a leading position when you were a college student? 你在大学的时候担当过什么领导职位吗?Peter说他在大学里担任过学生会主席,并且还入了党,应该是表现很积极了。president of Student union,学生会主席,join the Communist Party of China,加入中国共产党。 8. Did you get any honors or rewards at your university? 是问在大学里有没有获得过任何奖励。Peter回答说,I got the university scholarship in 1994~1995 academic year,我获得了94-95学年的奖学金,scholarship,奖学金,那么full scholarship,就是全额奖学金。academic year,学年,一般包括两个学期,学期是semester。 来源:考9. Peter还被问道Were you involved in any club activities at your university?在学校里参加过什么社团没有,club activities在这里指大学里的社团活动,比如篮球队比赛,象棋比赛等等。Peter说参加过篮球队,I was on the college basketball team. 参加某个球队,用on这个介词。 10. take part in extracurricular activities,参加课外活动。Peter还每天早上坚持慢跑,persist in doing something,坚持做某事。
