J: I think D.C., Washington D.C. the nation's capitol, is a very cosmopolitan city. You know, Mark mentioned a good word that I would like to go back to for a minute.
实录3: Mark: Location, Location, location. Dupont Circle is a pedestrian neighborhood. There are people walking on the streets from early in morning 'til the middle of the night. And we're the kind of place where you stop in and browse for books, stop in and have a cocktail. It's just an easy, fun place to go.
Y: 我觉得Mark很有生意头脑。他说Kramer's为什么这么成功,首先是它的地区。这一带叫Dupont Circle,是华盛顿非常繁华的一个地区,有很多年轻人住在这里。
J: It's not only the young people who make it successful. It's that diversity of the clientele. Where all different types of people come in ... professors or diplomats, famous authors. Everybody stops in Kramer's. It's kind of a joke. When someone says what are three things important for the success of a business. The answer is "Location, location, location."
Y: 一定要说三次。
J: So I thought we would include that. It's kind of a funny expression in English.
Y: 对,如果你选对了地方的话,即使你不会经营,它可能也会财源滚滚。
J: Right, right. So both Mark, who is the employee and Peter, who is the frequent customer of the bookstore, - both of them talked about the importance of having a diverse and cosmopolitan clientele for success.
Y: Peter是位顾客,那我们就从一个顾客的角度来听听为什么Kramer's这么受欢迎。
实录4: Peter: Where you locate a bookstore is really absolutely critical. There is a cosmopolitan crowd around this area. If you stuck this in the middle of the country it would be a total failure.
Y: Jody, 时间过得好快,五分钟马上就要到了。
J: I know. It went so fast.
Y: 我知道。用五分钟来谈论咖啡文化到底对美国人意味着什么显然是不够的。
J: Really five minutes is not enough time. So, I think everyone should join us again for another program of American Cafe.
Y: 那么希望下次节目和您再见。
J: Come on Yang Chen, let's go hang out over a cup of coffee!
