美語情景對話 第53期:全球化 Globalization
Todd: OK. Jamie. We're back.
傑米,我們開始吧。Jamie: OK.
好的。Todd: Jamie, you're a businessman.
傑米,你是一名商人。
Jamie: Sometimes.
有時是。Todd: OK, so..
哦,那麼……Jamie: Not this week.
至少這周不是。Todd: Not this week! OK. Um. we're going to talk about globalization.
這周不是!好吧,我們來聊聊全球化。Jamie: OK.
好的。Todd: What do you think about globalization?
你對全球化有什麼看法?Jamie: Globalization! I'm not really sure, I have a clear definition of what globalization is, but if globalization is several nations trading on the open, or semi-regular basis then I think globalization is a relatively positive thing.
全球化!我不確定我是否對全球化有一個清晰的概念,但如果全球化是指國家間公開進行貿易,或是經常定期地進行交易,那麼我認爲全球化是一件相對積極的事情。Todd: Yeah!
是的!Jamie: For, certainly for the countries that are involved in the, in the business that is going on between the nations that are obviously involved with that business.
當然,這樣進行的貿易是國家之間的貿易,與參與國有着息息相關的聯繫。Todd: Yeah. OK. Great. So do you think it makes the world a better place?
好的,很棒。那麼你認爲這樣會讓世界更加和諧嗎?Jamie: Yeah, the world a better place? No, I don't think it make the world a better place. I think it's just good for the countries that are directly and indirectly involved with the business that is going on between countries.
讓世界變得更好?不,我不認爲這樣會使世界變得更好。我認爲這樣只會使直接參與或是間接參與貿易的國家帶來好處,而這樣的貿易還會在這幾個國家之間進行。Todd: OK. Great. Thanks a lot.
好的,很棒,謝謝你。Jamie: My pleasure.
