【六届通译杯比赛辅导】初赛题目分类介绍之总结题2

  在上一次的辅导我们讲过总结题的类型其实和口译中的交传相似,都是需要大家进行听辨、笔记之后再将文章进行总结,其中也强调了不能只依赖笔记大脑也要记忆。今天,我们就来探讨一下交替传译中笔记与脑记是如何分配的,这对于同学们做好总结题非常重要。

    很多同学在刚开始练习交传都会觉得交传中的笔记法是一个很“神秘”的东西,认为只要掌握了笔记法就能拿下交传,然而事实却不是这样的。在交替传译中,脑记占了我们工作量的绝大部分为70%,然而“神秘的”笔记法,只占了30%。从这个比例中我们可以看出,交传笔记法的功能只是在辅助我们的脑记。所以这也就是为什么我们在教授交传课的时候,第一节课总会给大家练习逻辑听力和主旨口译(gist interpreting)。在之后的辅导中,我们会从逻辑听力和逻辑记忆法讲起,一步步带领大家了解交传的魅力。
最后,希望大家在今后练习的时候不要本末倒置,把所有注意力放在笔记法上却忽视了脑记的重要性。


    辅导的最后给大家附了一道总结题,希望大家在练习时能够注意听辨而不是只记笔记。

 

 

 

【原文】
Two trendy restaurants in Paris give good-looking people better tables than not-so-good-looking people. This is according to staff who used to work at the two eateries. The former employees told a Parisian newspaper about the restaurants' seating policy. They said: 'The good-looking customers are led to the good places, where they can be easily seen; the non-good-looking ones must be seated in the corners of the room.' This rule did not apply to celebrity diners. The rule for them was that, 'pretty or ugly, old or young,' they got the good tables. Even the waiters and waitresses were employed based on looks. One ex-waitress said: 'Anyone short, without a model's physique and over 30 need not apply.'
The ex-staff members said the restaurant owners wanted to make sure the restaurant had a good image by seating attractive guests in easy-to-see places. They said the restaurants' owner would visit regularly to make sure his 'beauty policy' was working. If he saw someone whose face he didn't like at a good table, he would tell the staff: 'There are good-looking people, you put them here; there are bad-looking people, you put them there.' Furthermore, staff could not promise to give a table to customers who telephoned to make a booking, just in case they were not beautiful. Staff only decided where to seat them after they came to the restaurant and looked at their faces.

【参考答案】
    在巴黎两家高档餐厅工作的前工作人员告诉记者,餐厅会按照客人的长相给他们安排座位。餐厅的座次政策为:长得好看的客人会被带到比较好的位置,而长相平平的客户则会被带到角落里的座位。甚至餐厅在招聘服务员的时候,也会根据长相招聘。
    这样做的原因是餐厅老板希望保证餐厅的良好形象。如果老板看见长相平平的人坐在好座位上,他还会告诉服务生给客人调换座位。同时,因为座位政策,服务生也不能给电话预定餐位的顾客保证可以做到好座位,因为他们在电话里无法判断客人长相。
