常見英語對(duì)話

　　在英語對(duì)話的時(shí)候，除了生活方面的話題，也可以聊一些其它的。下面是學(xué)習(xí)啦小編給大家整理的常見英語對(duì)話，供大家參閱!

　　常見英語對(duì)話：別擔(dān)心自己沒錢

　　A: Chris, you look frustrated these days. What’s wrong with you?

　　A:凱瑟琳，你最近看起來很沮喪，發(fā)生什么事了嗎?

　　C: I want to apply for Yale. You know, I have been longing to study at Yale since I came to this senior high school. But my parents are average workers. We manage to make both ends meet every month. So I’m quite worried about the tuition. Maybe I have to give up my dream.

　　C:我想申請(qǐng)耶魯。你知道的，我從上高中開始就一直夢(mèng)想著能去耶魯大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)。但 是我父母都是普通工人，我們每月勉強(qiáng)收支平衡。所以我很發(fā)愁我的學(xué)費(fèi)，也許 我不得不放棄我的夢(mèng)想了。

　　A: Don’t worry. Money is not a problem. At Yale there is a rich diversity of financial aid available. As far as I know, when admitting students, Yale disregards whether a student has the financial ability to support his/her study here, what she really values is whether the prospective student is competent enough to be enrolled to Yale. In my opinion, your excellent performance both in class and after class will catch their attention. So the only thing left for you is to apply for an award.

　　A:別擔(dān)心。錢不是問題。耶魯會(huì)為學(xué)生提供種類豐富的經(jīng)濟(jì)資助。據(jù)我所知，耶魯 在錄取學(xué)生的時(shí)候從不關(guān)心學(xué)生是否能夠負(fù)擔(dān)的了在此學(xué)習(xí)的費(fèi)用。她真正看重 的是_個(gè)學(xué)生的能力是否符含耶魯?shù)臉?biāo)準(zhǔn)。我覺得你在學(xué)習(xí)和課外活動(dòng)方面的表 現(xiàn)都非常出色，所以眼下你惟一該做的事就是向耶魯遞交獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金申請(qǐng)。

　　C: Yeah. I was too deeply immersed in frustration and almost forgot that I can apply for an award. You words do remind me. Then what should I prepare for such an application?

　　C:是啊。我一直深陷于沮喪的情緒中，差點(diǎn)忘了還可以申請(qǐng)獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金呢!你的話倒是 提醒了我。接下來我該如何為申請(qǐng)做準(zhǔn)備呢?

　　A: You should write an aid application. It ought to specify the expected family contribution which includes your parents，total income, parents，assets such as cash, savings and investments, the family size and number of children attending college or private school, your own contribution which consists of a contribution from a student’s own assets, if appropriate, along with a student income contribution from summer earnings and a student’s self-help by a term-time job.

　　A:你要寫一份經(jīng)濟(jì)資肋申請(qǐng)。這個(gè)申請(qǐng)中要詳述你的預(yù)期家庭貢獻(xiàn)：包括父母的全 部收入、諸如現(xiàn)金、積蓄及投資等的家庭財(cái)產(chǎn)、家庭人□及當(dāng)前正在讀大學(xué)或是 私立學(xué)校的孩子人數(shù)、包括你自己的資產(chǎn)或是暑假兼職所得在內(nèi)的個(gè)人可貢獻(xiàn)額 以及通過兼職你可能得到的收入。

　　C: So complicated. But I think it deserves my time and effort.

　　C:這么復(fù)雜啊!但是為了去耶魯讀書，我覺得很有必要花費(fèi)些時(shí)間和心血。

　　A: Yes. Yale offers the need-based financial aid to her applicants and determines financial need by subtracting a family contribution from the cost of attendance, which includes tuition, room, board，books, personal expenses and travel. In addition to the tuition, you will receive a bill for room and board from Yale, as well as the estimated allowances for non-billed expenditures such as books, supplies, travel, and personal expenses which are standard amounts. In a word, once admitted, Yale meets 100% of demonstrated financial need.

　　A:是的。耶魯向其申請(qǐng)者提供的是以需求為基礎(chǔ)的經(jīng)濟(jì)資助。她所提供的經(jīng)濟(jì)資助 的計(jì)算方法是從學(xué)業(yè)所需支出中減去家庭預(yù)期貢獻(xiàn)。學(xué)業(yè)所需支出包括學(xué)費(fèi)、住宿 費(fèi)、伙食費(fèi)、書費(fèi)、個(gè)人花銷及旅行費(fèi)用。除去學(xué)費(fèi)，耶魯會(huì)向其申請(qǐng)者提供一份 包含住宿費(fèi)、伙食費(fèi)及含書費(fèi)、日用品花費(fèi)、旅行費(fèi)及個(gè)人支出在內(nèi)的常規(guī)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的 預(yù)計(jì)補(bǔ)貼清單?？傊坏┍灰斾浫?，她會(huì)提供給學(xué)生申請(qǐng)的全部經(jīng)濟(jì)需求。

　　C: I see. Now I understand how the need-based financial aid works. Is there any other financial aid?

　　C:我知道了?，F(xiàn)在我明白以需求為基礎(chǔ)的經(jīng)濟(jì)資助是如何運(yùn)作的了。還有其他的經(jīng) 濟(jì)資肋方式嗎?

　　A: Of course. You can either ask for a loan or apply for outside funds. For the detailed information about these two kinds of financial aid, you can search on the internet.

　　A:當(dāng)然了。你既可以申請(qǐng)貸款，也可以申請(qǐng)外部資金援助。要想了解有關(guān)二者的詳 細(xì)信息，你可以好好上網(wǎng)查重。

　　C: OK. Thank you for your patience and detailed explanation.

　　C:好的。非常感謝你耐心細(xì)致的講解。

　　A: My pleasure. Best wishes for you!

　　A:不客氣。祝你一切順利!

　　C: Thank you!

　　C:多謝!
