a &b: hi, everyone! welcome to the “charming language, rhythmic speech” english story contest.

　　尊敬的各位领导、各位老师，同学们，大家好！欢迎光临“语之魅、言之韵”英语故事会。

　　a: i’m 崔倩茹. i’m from sm 06123. 我是来自商贸06123班的崔倩茹。

　　b: i"m 毛婉伊. we’re from the same class. 我是毛婉伊，我们来自同一个班级。

　　a: oh, 毛婉伊. i feel very much honored to host today’s contest. this is the first time in our school and this is also the first time in my life. i will never forget the moment, i think.

　　毛婉伊。能主持这样的故事会我感到非常荣幸。这可是第一次呀。学校是第一次，对我也是第一次。我想我永远不会忘记。

　　b: what you said is really true. i feel the same way. all of us are looking forward to viewing the scene. 噢，你说的一点不错。而且我颇有同感。我们大家都在翘首以待

　　a: have you heard of the song “we are ready”?

　　b: yeah, why? i can even sing it. “we are ready.”

　　a: though time is very pressing, all of our contestants are full of confidence. they are very keen and have spent much time and efforts on it. after much practice and careful preparations, and now they are ready. so we can be sure our stories in english contest will be a great success.

　　a: 虽然时间很紧迫，但各位参赛选手还是充满信心，他们热情参与，付出了很大的努力。经过各参赛选手精心准备和艰苦训练，我想他们一定胸有成竹，不用说，我们的英语故事会一定会成功。

　　b. hey, 毛婉伊, why do we hold such a contest, do you know? i have heard of a lot of stories in chinese, such as children’s stories, fortune stories, but never before have i heard of such a story contest.

　　哎，毛婉伊， 你说我们为什么要举行这样的故事会呢？ 我听说过很多故事会，如少儿故事会，财富故事会等等，但我可从来未曾听说过英语故事会呀。

　　a: yes, indeed. but i think this is the very reason why we hold such a contest. do you know what our department is called in english?

　　是啊。但是我想，这正是我们要举行这样比赛的原因吧。你知道我们系科用英语怎么说吗？

　　b: why yes, “business english and tourism english”, is that right?

　　a: you are right. since you know that, then it is obvious that english is the main subject for us. so we should pay more attention to both written and spoken english. and spoken english is the most important tool in our future work. so this is the very reason we hold such a contest. though this is the first time, it is a beginning. and i think it is a good beginning because we know a good beginning is half done.

　　既然你知道了，那也就不难理解了。英语是我们的主打学科，而听说又是我们的弱项，可是将来也许是我们的强项噢。这就是我们举办talk show的原因所在。虽然是第一次，可别小看了，常言道：良好的开端是成功的一半呀。

　　b: i can’t agree more. but what kind of stories are they going to tell? do you know?

　　我完全同意呀。但是我们的选手今天要讲什么样的故事呢？

　　a: stories, of course. 当然是故事了。

　　b: what kind of stories, classical or modern? 那是什么样的故事呢？古代的还是现代的？

　　a: classical and modern.既有古代也有现代。

　　b: western or eastern? 东方的还是西方的？

　　a: western and eastern. 既有东方也有西方。

　　b: what can we learn from this contest? 我们能学到什么？

　　a: we can learn much from it. we can benefit a lot from this stories contest, i’m sure. 可多了。我想，我们每一个都会感觉收益緋浅。

　　b: ok. everyone places a great hope in the contest. but how? let’s wait and see. 啊，大家都对今天故事会的期望值很高，到底怎么样？ 让我们看吧。
