I did think the author made an error of judgement in reproducing the Strong Interest Inventory for readers to try out.
我確實(shí)認(rèn)為，作者在復(fù)制斯特朗興趣量表供讀者試用的判斷上犯了錯(cuò)誤。
That was the test developed at Stanford in the nineteen twenties.
這是20世紀(jì)20年代斯坦福大學(xué)開(kāi)發(fā)的測(cè)試。
What I call the ' magazine test ' is infinitely simpler.
簡(jiǎn)單點(diǎn)說(shuō)，就是“雜志測(cè)試”。
Oh what's that?
哦，“雜志測(cè)試”是什么？
You think what magazine you 're most likely to buy, and find a job in that field.
你認(rèn)為你最有可能買(mǎi)什么雜志，然后找到與之相關(guān)的工作。
You 'll love it so much you 're bound to be successful. Right.
你會(huì)非常喜歡的，你一定會(huì)成功的。
Do you agree the paltry fourteen pounds ninety nine is a very reasonable price?
你同意微不足道的14.99英鎊是非常合理的價(jià)格嗎?
It's not paltry if you 're a student or are not in work although it is not so dear as to price students out of the market completely.
如果你是一名學(xué)生或者待業(yè)人士，這個(gè)價(jià)格雖然還沒(méi)高到讓學(xué)生完全退出市場(chǎng)的地步，但也不低。
And, unlike a lot of books of this type, it does not try to command a higher price by purporting to be an academic volume.
而且，與許多這類書(shū)籍不同的是，它并沒(méi)有試圖通過(guò)聲稱是一本學(xué)術(shù)著作而標(biāo)價(jià)很高。
True.
是這樣。
Would you buy it?
你會(huì)買(mǎi)嗎？
Erm it's difficult I 've had to sit down and read the thing from cover to cover in a day,
嗯，這很困難，我不得不坐下來(lái)從頭到尾讀一天，
so my judgement's clouded.
所以我也不太清楚。
For me, this falls into the ' of minor interest ' category, and it's saved only by the well chosen case studies,
對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)，這屬于“小興趣”范疇，出彩的部分只有精心挑選的案例研究，
which I suspect people will skip over most of each chapter to get to.
我想人們會(huì)跳過(guò)每章的大部分內(nèi)容。
Possibly.
可能吧。
