挑战保姆
http://www.sina.com.cn 2003/09/17 16:26  开口ABC

  First One: Nothing is impossible to a willing mind.

  Motivational speakers and books often point out that the main reason people do not realize their dreams or fail to achieve a goal is not physical but mental. When you believe in yourself and are willing to grow and change, as situations require, you have a much better chance of achieving your goals. Believe in yourself! Learning English isn't "a piece of cake", but you can do it if you're determined.

  世上无难事,只怕有心人。励志的书和人物之类经常认为如果有做不成的事情,只有一个原因,就是你放弃了。相信自己!每天起床,都对自己说:新的一天,我也是新的!我会成长,我会实现我的梦想。学英语确实不是举手之劳,但也不是蜀道之难!相信自己只要意志坚定,肯定能学好!

  Second One: Have you ever been a babysitter?

  A job applicant's experience is becoming more important to employers every year. In today's competitive American job market, it often takes more than an academic degree to land a good job. Many new college graduates are rejected for positions because of a lack of experience.

  你做过保姆吗?经验是一笔财富。超级大公司用人的时候,经常把经验放在第一位。许多毕业生希望挤进知名的大公司,但是成功者寥寥无几,原因就是如此:有什么学位不重要,重要的是你会干什么!

  Third One: Your baby will be safe with me.

  Something a babysitter should say to the employer to convince him/her not to worry. To many Americans, "baby" is considered a general term of affection and closeness. They may refer to pets, plants or even their car as their "baby".

  您孩子跟我会很安全的。这是保姆对雇主说的话,让他们大可放心。对大多数美国人来说,“baby”不仅指的是婴儿,而且是一个通用词汇。他们可以把宠物,花花草草,甚至是爱车统统称为“baby”。
