Paula: Richard, I'd like to ask some questions about how to get started on the feature.
保拉:理查德,我想請(qǐng)教一下有關(guān)如何著手這個(gè)專題的一些問(wèn)題。
Richard: OK. Shoot.
理查德:好的。說(shuō)吧。
Paula: Well, firstly, what kind of angle would you like me to write?
保拉:嗯,首先,您希望我從哪個(gè)視角來(lái)寫(xiě)呢?
Richard: That is something we're happy for you to choose yourself.
理查德:對(duì)此我們很樂(lè)意由你自己來(lái)選擇。
Paula: OK. Do you want there to be plenty of interviews, or more of my own writing?
保拉:好的。您希望里面含有大量的采訪,還是更多我自己的寫(xiě)作呢?
Richard: You need to do lots of research, and I'd recommend the public library as they have a great section of historical books on the subject, but you don't need to do too many interviews. One or two should be enough.
理查德:你需要做很多調(diào)查,我推薦你去公共圖書(shū)館,里面有大量關(guān)于這一主題的歷史著作,但你不需進(jìn)行太多的采訪。一兩個(gè)應(yīng)該就夠了。
Paula: OK then. And the deadline is midday on Friday?
保拉:好的。截稿日期是星期五的中午?
Richard: As always. You have four more days, so you had better get moving!
理查德:同往常一樣。你還有四天的時(shí)間,所以趕緊行動(dòng)吧!
