Put an Ad on Craigslist
在Craigslist上投放广告
The phone rang. "How's New York?" Wally asked. "I love it," Eugene said. "Have you found a job?" Wally asked. "Of course I haven't found a job," Eugene said. "I only got here a month ago." "You'd better hurry up," said Wally. "Your savings will run out before you know it." "I'm looking," said Eugene. "But it's tough. Thousands of people are looking for work. But there aren't thousands of jobs." "You should try Craigslist," said Wally. "Many people in New York want to improve their English. They will pay you good money. Look on Craigslist. See what other English teachers are charging. Charge a few dollars less." "That's a good idea," said Eugene. "But should I charge less or more? If I charge less, they might think I'm not so good. If I charge more, they might think I'm very good." "Put TWO ads on Craigslist," said Wally.
电话响了。沃利问道：“纽约怎么样？”尤金回答：“我非常喜欢。”沃利问道：“你找到工作了吗？”尤金回答：“还没有找到。我来到这里才一个月。”沃利说：“你最好抓紧了。你的存款会很快用完的。”尤金说：“我正在找，但是很难。上千人找工作。但是却没有上千个工作职位。”沃利称：“你可以试试Craigslist。纽约有许多人想提高英语。他们会支付你高额的工资。看看Craigslist。看看其他英语老师的价格。你可以少要几美金。”尤金说：“这是个好主意。但是我是该提高价格，还是降低价格？”如果我的价格太低，他们会认为我不够好。如果我的价格太高，他们或许会认为我非常好。”沃利称：“在Craigslist上登两个广告。”
