Todd: OK, Christian, what is your dream job, if you could have any job in the world?
Christian,如果你能够拥有世界上任何一份工作,你最梦寐以求的是?
Christian: My dream job is to become a diplomat representing my country, preferably in Japan. That's why I came to Japan to learn Japanese and hopefully obtain a master degree in International Relations. After getting my master's degree in International Relations, I would like to go home and enter the diplomat school for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is a three year program, and then, after that hopefully come back to Japan and work for the Norwegian Embassy in Tokyo.
我最梦寐以求的职业是成为一名外交官,最好是驻日本外交官
Todd: Must be pretty competitive.
那肯定竞争很激烈
Christian: It's very competitive, but I think if you know a certain language that not many people speak it gives you a competitive edge nevertheless so that's why I came to Japan because I know at this stage there are only 300 hundred people from Norway living in Japan and not all of them are here to study Japanese, they represent different companies or schools, or they're missionaries so, that's the track I'm on right now but we'll see how it goes in the end.
竞争确实很激烈,但我想如果你能掌握一门很多人都不会的语言,你就会拥有竞争优势,这也就是我来日本的原因
Todd: How about when you were a child, what was your dream job? Did you want to be a diplomat when you were say, 10?
那当你还是个孩子的时候,你最梦寐以求的职业是什么?你10岁的时候就想做一名外交官了吗?
Christian: No, when I was ten I probably didn't know what I wanted to do. I was just too busy playing in the street, you know, having fun with my friends and these things. When I was that young I really didn't have a dream job like fireman, police. I never really went through that stage, you know.
没有,当我十岁的时候我可能还没有想过以后我想做什么
Todd: I wanted to be a baseball player.
我想成为一名棒球运动员
Christian: Alright, fair enough.
好啊,不错
Todd: I'm still dreaming.
我还在幻想着
Christian: Oh, that's good.
哦,那很好
