當(dāng)提及六級聽力時(shí),尤其是英語六級真題聽力,我們不禁會(huì)想起那些考驗(yàn)英語學(xué)習(xí)者聽力理解能力的挑戰(zhàn)。作為英語六級考試的重要組成部分,六級聽力部分不僅要求考生能夠捕捉和識(shí)別出基本的語言信息,更需要他們在有限的時(shí)間內(nèi)對復(fù)雜的語境進(jìn)行準(zhǔn)確理解,并快速作出反應(yīng)。小編為大家整理了2022年6月英語六級真題聽力第一套Conversation 2的內(nèi)容,希望能對您有所幫助!

Conversation 2
對話2
In this episode of Money Talks, our guest is Molly Sanders, a university student and a successful young entrepreneur. Molly, tell us about your business.
本期《金錢對話》的嘉賓是莫莉·桑德斯,她是一名大學(xué)生,也是一位年輕成功的企業(yè)家。莫莉,跟我們說說你的生意吧。
Well, I sell specialty clothes through a website, mainly for women who have trouble finding suitable clothes in Main Street shops because of their height or weight. But I do some men's clothes too.
嗯,我通過網(wǎng)站銷售特色服裝,主要是為那些因?yàn)樯砀呋蝮w重而在大街上找不到合適衣服的女性。但我也做一些男裝。
How did you get started in this business at such a young age? Are you studying fashion design?
你這么年輕是怎么開始這個(gè)業(yè)務(wù)的?你學(xué)的是時(shí)裝設(shè)計(jì)嗎?
Actually, I'm majoring in finance, but I've always loved clothes and I started making my own at 14.
其實(shí)我主修的是金融,但我一直很喜歡衣服,我從14歲就開始自己做了。
Did you have any sort of training in design or sewing, or was it a natural ability?
你有接受過設(shè)計(jì)或縫紉方面的培訓(xùn)嗎,還是這是一種天賦?
I'd have to say no to both. No one taught me to make clothes, and most of the things I made at first were disasters.
兩者都沒有。沒人教過我做衣服,一開始我做的大部分衣服都是災(zāi)難。
Why did you persevere? I think most people would give up if they kept failing, especially at that age.
你為什么堅(jiān)持下去?我想大多數(shù)人如果一直失敗,尤其是在那個(gè)年紀(jì),就會(huì)放棄。
I kept on out of necessity. As you can see, I'm very tall, and I couldn't find clothes that fit me in ordinary shops, so I kept trying and developed my skills over time.
我是出于需要才堅(jiān)持下去的。你可以看到,我很高,在普通商店里找不到適合我的衣服,所以我不斷嘗試,隨著時(shí)間的推移提高了我的技能。
Well, my notes say you earned $50,000 in profits last year, an extraordinary amount for a 20-year-old student. How did that happen? Did you see a gap in the market and decide to fill it?
嗯,我的筆記上說,你去年賺了5萬美元的利潤,對于一個(gè)20歲的學(xué)生來說,這是一個(gè)驚人的數(shù)字。這是怎么回事?你發(fā)現(xiàn)市場上有空缺,然后決定填補(bǔ)它嗎?
No, when I started university, some classmates complimented my clothes and when I said I made them myself, other tall women started asking if I would make theirs. And I did, and before I knew it, I was an entrepreneur.
不是,當(dāng)我開始上大學(xué)時(shí),一些同學(xué)稱贊我的衣服,當(dāng)我說是我自己做的時(shí),其他高個(gè)子女性開始問我是否可以為她們做。我照做了,不知不覺間,我就成為了一名企業(yè)家。
So what are your plans for the future? Do you intend to open a physical store?
那么你對未來有什么計(jì)劃?你打算開實(shí)體店嗎?
No, I'll keep things online to keep costs down, but I will add more clothes for children, both girls and boys, and possibly even for infants. And I hope to add to my range of designs for men.
不,我會(huì)繼續(xù)在網(wǎng)上經(jīng)營以保持低成本,但我會(huì)增加兒童和嬰兒的衣服,包括男孩和女孩,甚至可能是嬰兒。我希望增加我的男裝設(shè)計(jì)系列。
