　　2010秋季上海口译考试报名通知

　　中级口译考试介绍：

　　具有大学英语四级和同等英语能力水平的考生可以报考。

　　凡获得“上海市英语中级口译岗位资格证书”者均具有良好的口语水平和基本口译技能，可从事一般的生活翻译、陪同翻译、涉外导游以及外事接待、外贸业务洽谈等工作。

　　上海中级口译的笔试和口试虽然是分开进行的，但其笔试的证书在社会上却有很高的认可度。现在中国受金融风暴的影响，各大公司纷纷裁员，但中高级口译等高等专业人才仍存在很大的缺口。

　　为了方便广大口译考生备战秋季的考试，新东方在线口译频道特别汇总整理了近九年来的中级口译听力原文，供考生复习备考。

　　Questions 19-22

　　【原文】

　　W: Did you take your car to Sampson’s garage to be repaired, Bill?

　　M: Yes, the day before yesterday. It’s in good shape again, now. Apparently, I needn’t have worried about that terrible rattling noise underneath. It was only a loose wire, and they fixed it in 10 minutes flat.

　　W: Was there anything else wrong?

　　M: Oh, yes. They found about a dozen other things that needed replacing.

　　W: That’s always the way. You take the car in for one reason and they find that everything else is wrong. In the end, you pay twice as much as you bargain for. But at least, Sampson’s people are fast workers.

　　M: Yes, thanks goodness. My wife and I had to go to Cambridge yesterday, family issues, you know, and I thought I’d have to hire a car or borrow someone else’s. But my own car was ready in time, so I didn’t need to hire one after all.

　　W: Of course, Sampson may be fast, but he is expensive too. I didn’t have to go to him, of course. I think I will try somewhere else next time something goes wrong.

　　M: It doesn’t matter where else you try. All garages are expensive these days. You just have to pay up. There is nothing else you can do.

　　W: And sometimes you can’t even be sure that they’ve done the job you’ve asked them to do. Last year, I had to take my car into a garage in Brighton for an emergency repair. But I wasn’t even allowed to stand there in the repair shop and watch what they did with it. Union rules or something.

　　M: Well, they probably didn’t want you to see how simple the job was before they gave you the bill.
