S: Hello, teacher. Is it common for university students to have past-time jobs?
大学生做兼职工作是件很平常的事吗?
T: Yes. It is very common.
对,很常见。
S: What kind of jobs do they usually have?
他们通常都会找些什么样的兼职做?
T: They normally have jobs like tutors. How about the United States How is it like for students there?
多数是做家教,美国的学生呢?
T: It is also common for university students to have part-time jobs, but not so much as tutors. Many university students work on campus. For example, some students work in the library, school store or dining hall. But some also work off campus as waiters or waitressed at local restaurants.
他们也做兼职,但个别不做家教或是保姆。很多学生都在学校里找些兼职做,比如在
图书馆,小商店或是学校餐厅。也有一些人在校外餐馆里做服务员。
T: I heard it is a cinch for students in the US to find a job in college because the school offers many opportunities on campus. But in China, not all colleges have campus jobs for students.
据说,美国大学生很轻易就能在校园里找到活儿做,因为学校本身就会供应很多工作机会。但在中国这样的大学就不这样。
S: So where do students get jobs?
那学生们都去哪儿找工作做?
T: Yes, I had a job I worked for three years as a tutor. Studying English can give T more opportunities towards finding a job such as being a tutor. If you learn English, you can be a primary school students and tutor little children. So it is easier for English majors to find part time jobs.
是的,我有一份我工作了三年的家庭教师的工作。学习英语可以给T更多的机会找到工作,比如做一名家教。如果会英语,可以上小学学生和辅导小孩子。因此,英语专业的学生更容易找到兼职工作。
