英文原文

【Trancript】

I am working on it

A:Hi, Monica, how is everything going?

B:Everything goes well, but I am thinking about quitting my current job.

A:Why? You’re not satisfied anymore?

B:I just sense. But I cannot grow anymore. My boss is not really supporting me. I am interested in some positions in other JV companies, but I need to do some more in-step research before I send my application letters out.

A:That is important. Doing research on a company you are interested in will definitely help your application.

B:Certainly, it is very nice talking with you. But I really have to go now. Catch you later.

A:Ok, good luck to you.

中文译文

【Translation】

A:莫妮卡，你好，最近怎样？

B:还不错，就是不想再做现在的工作了

A:为什么？你不喜欢了吗？

B:我可以做，但是我觉得很难再有什么发展了。我的老板并不是很支持我。我对其他合资公司的职位比较感兴
趣，不过我准备在投简历之前，做一些同步的调查。

A:这样做很重要。在投简历之前，对目标公司有个了解，可以提高你的成功率。

口语要点

【Oral English】

1.I am working on it

work on有“努力影响〔说服〕 ”的意思，例如：We will work on those who have erred and help them do right.
我们将对犯了错误的人做工作, 并帮助他们改正。

She'll work on him to make him change his mind.
她将努力说服他改变主意。

在本文中work on表示“致力于…”的意思，例如：He has been working on a new novel for over a year now.
近一年多来, 他一直在写一部新小说。

本文中I am working on it具体指的就是“我正忙着找工作”。

2. how is everything going

这句话的意思分两种情况
第一种情况“表示只是问人”，那就相当于“how are you?” 还好吗？ 你最近怎样？

第二种情况表示“一件事情正在进行”，那就是问这件事情进展的怎样，“everything goes well.”一切顺利！

3.Catch you later

catch表示“抓”的意思，later表示“较晚地，后来”，Catch you later指的就是“I will talk to you or see you later.”意思就是“回头见，一会儿见”。例如：Okay, catch you later.
好，那再聊（一会见）吧。

另外，我们还可以用“catch you around”，“ see you later”这两个短语来表达相同的意思。
