Conversation One
对话一
W: Hey, Tom, where've you been lately?
W: 嘿，汤姆，最近忙什么呢？
M: Oh, I've been doing loads of job interviews. I'm graduating soon.
M: 哦，因为马上要毕业了，我正忙着到处面试求职呢。
W: How about your job interviews?
W: 面试的结果如何?
M: I've just got to work out what to do next. I'm torn between a big company and a small company.
M: 我不知道接下来该怎么选择。我正纠结着应该选择大公司还是小公司。
W: Really? Personally I would choose the small company. What are you thinking?
W: 真的吗？我个人认为应该选择小公司。你觉得呢？
M: Well, I was going to go with the big company because if it is bigger, it's got a bigger financial base, it's more secure. And also in a big company they've got to follow the laws. The things like pension and insurance are all going to be sorted out.
M: 嗯，我更加倾向大公司。因为大公司所能够未员工提供的安全感和优越的福利。并且大公司都是按照国家的法律法规经营的。那么退休金和保险等方面的问题就不用担心了。
W: Well, I prefer a small company for almost all different reasons. It's a lot more exciting, and you're going to be treated, most importantly, like a person. And it would be nice to have the relationships with your coworkers like a human relationship instead of just one giant building.
W: 我之所以喜欢小公司有多方面的原因。在小公司里，同事待你更加真诚，人与人之间的交往也更为融洽。与其待在一栋冰冷的大楼里，还不如尽情享受同事间亲密的人际关系。
M: You've got a good point about the personal relationships, but that can also work against you. If someone has a good tight relationship with the boss, maybe they're going to get the promotion and you're going to get passed over. That kind of closeness doesn't really seem fair.
M: 人际关系这一点你说的的确在理，但也不完全正确。假如员工与老板之间的关系过于亲密，那他们很可能会抢了你的升职机会。亲密的人际关系可能会导致不公平现象的发生。
W: Well, that is a good point. But most of the people working at a small company are going to share a lot more of your ideals and you're going to have a better time of integrating yourself there.
W: 你说的没错。但很多在小公司工作的人都喜欢分享自己的一些观点和看法，在这样的环境下，你可以借机整合并提升自己。
M: I'm going to have to give this more thought.
M: 我还得再三考虑后再做决定。
W: OK.
W: 好的。
