After all, there are strong points and weak points in both types of management. /In recent years, more and more American business executives have recognized the strong points of the more humane way of Chinese management./Example 1: How do you interpret?l美 经 中美合企 2年 I 说 difbus. man. 中 美/we 更 直 率 比 中不同文传/I x 我 bus. + 毕 有 + & - both /近年 美企exe. 强: hu 中管/今晚，我们很高兴在北京大学再次接待我们的老朋友格林博士和夫人 。/我代表学校的全体师生员工向格林博士和夫人及其他新西兰贵宾表示 热烈的欢迎。/我相信格林博士这次对我校的访问，必将为进一步加强两校的友好合 作关系作出重要的贡献。/明天，贵宾们将要赴南京和上海访问，我预祝大家一路旅途愉快。Example 2: How do you interpret?l今eve we J 北大 再接 老朋 Dr Green&Mrs / I 代 全staff Dr.&Mrs. G & 其 NZ 宾: wel / I Bel Gr 我sch 访 友合 重贡/ tom 宾 go 南 & 上 I wish nice trip/Language styles in interpretinglOral language Q: Dear Michael, who taught you how to play golf and do you still use a coach? A: A lot of people helped teach memostly my buddies at the UNC while I was in school. I occasionally use a PRO to advise me on improving -but no one regular. Ive come to realize that Im just a “hack“-so now I am enjoying just playing without a lot of coaching.l问:亲爱的迈克尔,谁教你打高尔夫球,你现在 还有教练吗?l答：有许多人教过我多数是我在北卡罗来纳 大学时的老同学.偶尔会请个职业教练帮帮我, 但不经常.我已经渐渐认识到我不过是随便玩 玩而已.所以现在更不想要教练,就自己玩.Language styles in interpretinglFairly formal languageQ: Women in the United States generally live longer than men. But in recent years that gap has been narrowing a bit. How has that affected the life insurance business?A: It is not narrowing that much, thank goodness. We are still outliving men, we are still. We have quite a gap on them, still about 7-8 years. The only reason its narrowing is women are doing things to themselves that they shouldnt be doing, like smoking ,and all those bad habits that men have had for many years. But it is not narrowing for other reasons.l问:在美国,一般来说妇女比男人更长寿,但是 近年来差距在缩小.这对人寿保险业有什么影 响?l答:感谢上帝,差距并没有缩小多少.我们还是 比男人寿命长.我们和他们的寿命有很大差距, 大约仍有七、八年的差距。差距缩小的唯一原 因是妇女们做那些不该做的事情，如吸烟以及 男人们很久以来就有的一些坏习惯。除此以外 没有别的原因。Language styles in interpretinglFormal languageI wish to thank you，Mr. Premier, for accepting my invitation to share your evening with my colleagues and me, and for honoring Canada with your presence.
