　　SECTION 3

　　TUTOR:Right, Sandra. You wanted to see me to get some feedback on yourgroup's proposal. The one you're submitting for the Geography Society field trip compettion. l've had a look through your proposai and I think i'sa realy good choice. In fact, I only have a few things to say about it, but even in an outline document like this you reaily have to be careful to avoidtypos and problems with layout in the proposal, and even in the contentspage. So read it through carefully before subitting it, okay?

　　SANDRA:Will do.

　　TUTOR:And l've made a few notes on the proposal about things which could have Q21been better sequenced.

　　SANDRA:Okay.

　　TUTOR:As for the writing itself, l've annotated the proposal as and where I thoughtit could be improved. Generally speaking, I feel you've often used complex structures and long sentences for the sake of it and as a consequence .. . although your paragraphing and inclusion of sub-headings help .. it's quite hard to fllow your train of thought at times. So Q22cut them down a bit, can you?

　　SANDRA:Really?

　　TUTOR:Yes. And don't forget simple formatting like numbering.

　　SANDRA:Didn't I use page numbers?

　　TUTOR:I didn't mean that. Look, you've remembered to include headers and footers, which is good, but listing ideas clearly is important. Number them Q23or use bullet points, which is even clearer. Then you'll focus the reader on your main points. I thought your suggestion to go to the Navajo Tribal Park was a very good idea.

　　SANDRA:l've always wanted to go there. My father was a great fan of cowboy films Q24and the Wild West so 1 was subjected to seeing all the epics, many of which were shot there. As a consequence, it feels very familiar to me and it's awesome both geographically and visually, so it's somewhere l've always wanted to visit. The subsequent research I did and the online photographs made me even keener,

　　TUTOR:Interesting. Right, let's look at the content of your proposal now.

　　SANDRA:Did you find it comprehensive enough?

　　TUTOR:Well, yes and no. You've listed several dfferent topics on your contentspage, but I'm not sure they'e all relevant.

　　SANDRA:No? Well, | thought that from the perspectve of a field tip, one thing Ineeded to focus on was the sandstore plateaux and cifts themselves.The way they tower up from the flat landscape is just amazing. The factthat the surrounding softer rocks were eroded by wind and rain, leavingthese huge outcrops high above the plain. It's hardly surprising thattourists flock to see the area.

　　TUTOR:Well, yes, I'd agree with including those points.

　　SANDRA:And then the fact that it's been home to native American Navajos and allthe soclal history that goes with that. The hardships they endured trying tosave their tritor from the invading stters. Their culture is so rich - allthose wonderful stories.

　　TUTOR:Well, I agree It's interesting, but it's not immedlately relevant to yourproposal, Sandra, so at this stage, I suggest you focus on other

　　considerations.上think an indication of what the students on the trip couldacually do when they get there should be far more central, so that

　　certainly needs to be included and to be expanded upon. And r'd like to,see something about the local widlife. and vegetation too, not that Iimagine there's much to see. Presumably the tourist invasion hasn'thelped.

　　SANDRA:Okay, I'll do some work on those two areas as well. But you're right,there's not much apart from some very shallow-rooted species. AlthoughIt's cold and snowy there in the winter, the earth is baked so hard in thesummer sun that rainwater can't penetrate. So t's a case o flood ordrought, really.

　　TUTOR:So, I understand. Now, before we look at everything in more detail, I'vegot a few factual questions for you. It would be a good idea to includethe answers in your finished proposal, because they're missing from yourdrat.

　　SANDRA:Fine.

　　TUTOR:So, you mentioned the monolths and the spires, which was good, butwhat area does the tribal park cover? Do you know?

　　SANDRA:12,000 hectares, and the plain is al about 5,850 metres above sea level.

　　TUTOR:Larger than I expected. Okay. Where's the nearest accommodation?Thar's a practical detail that you haven't indluded. Have you done anyresearch on that?

　　SANDRA:Yes. There's nowhere to stay in the park Iself, but there's an old tradingpost called Goulding quite near. AII kinds of tours start from Goulding, too,

　　TUTOR:What kind of tours?

　　SANDRA:Well, the most popular are in four-wheel drive jeeps - but wouldn't recommend hiring those. Ithink the best way to appreciate the area wouldbe to hire horses instead and trek around on those. Biking is not llwedandit's impossible to drive around the area in private vehicles. The tracksare too rough.

　　TUTOR:Okay, lastly, what else is worth visiting there?

　　SANDRA:There are several caves, but I haven' looked into any details. I'l find outabout them.

　　TUTOR:Okay, good. Now what I'd like to knowis...

　　第 3 节

　　导师：对，桑德拉你想看到我得到一些反馈你的组的建议。您为地理协会提交的人实地考察。我看过你的道具， 我想我是个不错的选择。事实上，我只有几句话说，但即使在这样的大纲文档中，你也必须小心避免提案中的布局和问题，甚至在内容页中。所以在分网之前仔细读一读，好吗?

　　桑德拉：会做的。

　　导师：我记下了关于一些可以地排列Q21顺序的建议。

　　桑德拉：好。

　　导师：至于写作本身，我已经注释了建议，我认为它可以改进。一般来说，我觉得你经常用复杂的结构和长句为了它，作为一个后果。。.虽然您的段落和包含子标题帮助。有时很难花你的思维。所以 Q22 把它们剪下来一点， 可以吗?

　　桑德拉：真?

　　导师：是的。不要忘记简单的格式，如编号。

　　桑德拉：我没有使用页码吗?

　　导师：我不是那个意思你看，你记得包括标题和脚， 这， 但列出想法显然很重要。编号 Q23 或使用项目符号点， 这更清楚。然后，您将关注读者你的主要观点。我以为你的建议是去纳瓦霍部落公园是个好主意。

　　桑德拉：我一直想去那里我父亲是牛仔电影 Q24 和狂野西部的超级粉丝， 所以 1 被看所有的史诗， 许多在那里被枪杀。因此，它感觉熟悉，我和这是真棒地理和视觉， 所以它的地方， 我已经一直想参观。随后的研究，我做了和在线照片让我更加敏锐，

　　导师：有趣。现在让我们看看你的提案内容。

　　桑德拉：你觉得够全面的吗?

　　导师：嗯，是和不是。您已经在你的内容页面上列出了几个主题， 但我不确定它们是否都相关。

　　桑德拉：不?嗯，认为，从现场提示的观察，有一件事内德专注于是沙地高原和西夫特本身。他们从平坦的景观塔起来的方式是惊人的。事实上，周围的软岩石被风和雨侵蚀，留下这些巨大的露头高在平原之上。游客蜂拥而至，看到这个地区也就不足为奇了。

　　导师：嗯， 是的， 我同意包括这些观点。

　　桑德拉：然后， 事实上， 它一直是美国本土纳瓦霍人和所有索克拉历史的家， 与这一点。他们忍受的艰辛，试图把他们的三轮车从入侵的阶梯中俘虏。他们的文化是如此丰富 - 所有那些精彩的故事。

　　导师：嗯， 我同意这很有趣， 但它与你的建议没有关系， 桑德拉， 所以在这个阶段， 我建议你专注于其他考虑. - 想想一个指示， 在旅行的学生可以做什么， 当他们到达那里应该更中心， 所以，当然需要包括和扩展。我想看看当地的 widlife 。和植被， 而不是想象有看。估计游客入侵没有进行。

　　桑德拉：好的，我也在这两个方面做一些工作。但你是对的除了一些很浅的物种之外， 没有太大的物种。虽然冬天那里又冷又下雪，但大地在夏的阳光下烤得那么厉害，雨水无法穿透。所以， 这是一个案件 o 洪水或咳嗽， 真的。

　　导师：所以，我明白。现在，在我们更详细地研究一切之前，我已经给你了几个事实问题。将答案列入您完成的建议中是个好主意，因为它们从您的拉特中丢失了答案。

　　桑德拉：好。

　　导师：所以， 你提到单体和尖顶， 这， 但部落公园覆盖什么区域?你知道吗?

　　桑德拉：12，000公顷，平原位于海平面以上约5，850米处。

　　导师：比我预期的要大好。最近的住处在哪里?塔尔是一个你还没有暗示的实用细节。你做过研究吗?

　　桑德拉：是的。公园里没有地方可以住，但附近有一个叫做古尔丁的旧交易点。AII类型的旅游也从古尔丁开始，

　　导师：什么样的旅游?

　　桑德拉：　嗯，最流行的是四轮驱动吉普车 - 但不会建议雇用这些。我认为欣赏这个地区的方式是租马， 然后四处跋涉。骑自行车不是骑在私人车辆里开车的。铁轨太粗糙了。

　　导师：好吧，最后，还有什么值得参观的呢?

　　桑德拉：有几个洞穴，但我还没有研究任何细节。我会找到他们的

　　导师：好的，现在我想知道的...

　　1. 本段对话是在导师与学生 Sandra 之间进行,导师对 Sandra 的小组计划给出反馈信息。导 师首先指出 Sandra 应该避免排字排版以及格式错误。关于写作本身,导师也提出了意见, 总体来说,他觉得 Sandra 经常为使用复杂结构和长句而使用它们。结果呢,即使文章中 有分段、副标题,要跟上 Sandra 的想法还是有点困难(Generally speaking, I feel you’ve often used complex structures and long sentences for the sake of it and as a consequence... although your paragraphing and inclusion of subheadings help... it’s quite hard to follow your train of thought at times)。generally speaking 意为“总体来说”,相似的表达方式还有frankly speaking, 意为“坦率地说”。for the sake of意为“为了...... ”,如:for the sake of convenience 意为“为了方便起见”。as a consequence 意为“因此,结果是”,相当于 as a result。train of thought 意为“一连串的想法”,train 在此意为“一系列”。

　　3. Sandra 有点惊讶,她以为从实地考察的角度出发,只需要考虑砂岩高原和悬崖(I thought from the perspective of a field trip, one thing I needed to focus on was the sandstone plateaux and cliffs themselves)。from the perspective of 意为“从......的角度来看”,focus on 意为“聚 焦”。
