NARRATOR:Listen to a conversation between a student and a librarian.

旁白：听一段学生和图书管理员之间的对话。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Hi, can I help you?

图书管理员：您好，有什么可以帮助您的吗？

MALE STUDENT:I hope so.

男学生：我希望如此。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:OK…

图书管理员：好的。

MALE STUDENT:I need to find an article in a journal called Contemporary Research in Linguistics, and I’ve looked all over the stacks for it, but I can’t find it anywhere.

学生：我需要在一本名为《当代语言学研究》的期刊上找到一篇文章，我翻遍了所有的书库，但我到处都找不到。

Could you look to see if it’s been checked out?

您能看看是不是已经借出去了吗？

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:OK, that may not be the problem.

图书管理员：好的，没问题。

MALE STUDENT:But I just checked the computer catalog over there, and it’s listed there, and it says it’s available.

学生：但是我刚刚查看了那里的计算机目录，它在那里列出并且它说它是可用的。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:When you looked up the book locator number, did you see the letters L-A-N?

图书管理员：您查找图书定位编号时，您看到字母 LAN 了吗？

MALE STUDENT:Oh, OK, yeah I saw that, but I didn’t know what it meant.

男学生：哦，好的。是的，我看到了，但我不知道它是什么意思。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Oh that means it’s in the language department library. We don’t have it here.

图书管理员：这意味着书在语言部门的图书馆里。我们这里没有。

MALE STUDENT:Oh…

男学生：哦……

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Yes, the university actually has nine libraries, so you always have to check the library code when you’re looking for a book.

图书管理员：是的，这所大学实际上有九个图书馆，所以您在找书的时候总是要检查图书馆的代码。

MALE STUDENT:Oh, OK. … But it is available, but not in this library?

男学生：哦，好吧。它可以借，但不在这个图书馆？

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Right. But we do have a number of other linguistics journals here.

图书管理员：是的，但我们这里确实有许多其他语言学期刊。

MALE STUDENT:No, I need this one specifically; this article’s mentioned in a bunch of other articles I’ve already read, and I wanted to have a look at the original—this one—you know, in case there’s more stuff I could use in my paper.

男学生：不，我就需要这个。这篇文章在我已经阅读过的许多其他文章中都提到过，我想看看这篇原文，以防万一我能找到更多的东西用在自己的论文里。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:OK, well you know all the university libraries share their resources, so if you like I could call the language department library and ask them to send it over, and we’d have it for you here oh day after tomorrow around noon.

图书管理员：好的。好吧，所有的大学图书馆都共享资源，所以，如果您愿意的话，我可以打电话给语言系图书馆，把它寄过来，后天中午左右就能拿到手，提供给您。

MALE STUDENT:Oh I appreciate that, but I can’t wait that long.

学生：谢谢了，但我等不了那么久。

I need this article for a paper I’m writing that’s due the day after tomorrow.

我需要这篇文章来写论文，后天就是截止日。

Um, could you tell me where the language department library is?

嗯……您能告诉我语言系图书馆在哪里吗？

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Sure. It’s on the other campus, in the basement of Pearson Hall, across from the listening lab.

图书管理员：当然，它在皮尔逊礼堂地下室的另一个校区，听力实验室对面。

But I doubt you’ll be able to make it over there in time today.

但我估计你今天来不及赶到那里了。

MALE STUDENT:No, especially since I don’t have a car. But my sister does, and I’m pretty sure she’d let me borrow it…

男学生：确实赶不到，特别我还没有车。但我姐姐有，而且我很确定她会借给我。

If I go over there first thing tomorrow morning, will I be able to check it out right away?

如果我明天早上第一件事就去那里，我能马上借出吗？

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:I don’t see why not. Just make sure you have your student ID with you.

图书管理员：肯定可以的。只要确保您随身携带学生证即可。

MALE STUDENT:OK. That’s what I’ll do then. Thank you very much.

男学生：好的，就这么定了。非常感谢你。

FEMALE LIBRARIAN:Sure.

图书管理员：不客气。
