I`m doing a research paper on Cross-cultural communication. Could you give me some suggestions on where I should go to find some good information? 
我在写关于跨文化交流的研究论文.你能给我建议一下我该到哪儿找些有用的资料吗? 
罗斯:
Will you be looking for general information or have you selected a more definite topic?
你是要找一般性资料.还是已经选定了具体的题目?
朱尔:
I need some general information.
我想要些一般性资料.
罗斯:
For general information on cross-cultural communication, you should go to the section with numbers from 780-810. You do understand the Dewey decimal system, don`t you?
找有关跨文化交流的一般性资料.可以到编号780-810的书架去.杜威图书十进分类法你明白吗?
朱尔:
Yes, I believe I do. All books are classified according to the subject matter?
这个我懂.所有的书都按主题分类?
罗斯:
You`re right. Language, education, communication are all in the section with number going from 780-810. Have you looked into the card catalogue?
对.语言.教育.交流类都在780-810的架区.你查过卡片目录了吗?
朱尔:
I`m afraid I haven`t.
还没有.
罗斯:
All the books are listed in the card catalogue. Now, however, you can find all of the books listed in the computer and it gives you more information than the card catalogue, too. It will let you know if the book you are looking for is currently available,
所有图书都列在卡片目录上.不过.现在你可以在电脑里找到所有书.与卡片目录相比.电脑给你的信息更多.它能告诉你要找的书现在有没有.如果这个图书馆没有.它会告诉你哪个地区的图书馆有.
朱尔:
I`ve never used the computer for finding a book. Is it hard to use?
我从来没有用电脑找过书.复杂吗?
罗斯:
No, it`s quite simple. The instructions are there beside the computer. You won`t have any trouble.
非常简单.操作说明就在电脑旁边.一点都不麻烦.

That`s my job.
