This is the second in a two-part Business English Pod series on administrative assistants, their jobs, and related vocabulary and collocations. 这是有关行政助理系列的英语播客的第二部分,讲述了有关他们的工作,和相关词汇和搭配。

Collocations are a challenge for anyone learning English. There aren't any specific rules to follow. You just have to listen for what sounds right. Still, they're essential for English communication and important to keep in mind when you learn new vocabulary—don't just think about the new word, think about what other words it might be used with. We'll point out some useful collocations related to daily office work as we go through this lesson. 词语搭配对于英语学习者来说是一个挑战。没有严格的条款去依循。你必须去听听起来是对的。并且,当你学 学了新的词汇,不要只是觉得他们是新的词汇,要想到其他的一些可能会用到的其他词语,而搭配对于记住这些新的词至关重 要。

Administrative assistants are important to any business organization. For example, they make sure data is handled responsibly and records are maintained properly. It might seem like they work in the background, but their jobs are critical to the smooth running of a company. 行政助理对于任何商业组织都很重要。比如,他们要确保 数据正确,记录好公司正常运行的数据。

Today, she'll talk about why her work is so important to the company. 上一集中,我们了解了克里斯蒂娜,在拉法基汽车公司人事部门的 总的行政助理。在这个访谈中,克里斯蒂娜告诉了我们她的日常工作。今天,她将要谈论她的工作对于整个公司的重要性。
