m: Good morning, madam. (不理我,看了一会电脑才说话)
v: What are you doing now?
m: (很奇怪为什么一开始问这个,容不得多想了,按我准备好的说吧)I'm doing some
experiments in my group.
v: Are you paid?
m: (没想到会问这个,只好胡诌)Yes, a little.
v: You've graduated for 3 months?
m: (再次没想到问这个,还好比较简单)Yes, in this March, about 3 months.(开始
后悔没回答好,连个句子都不是。又是沉默,她看电脑,我看她,反正我不多说。)
v: Do you take your resume and thesis?
m: Yes. (急忙找)Here is my resume, and here is the abstract of my master the
sis. (给她了,瞟了一眼,竟然不看,继续问)
v: *$Q#Q#$#Q@(没听懂,自己都能听到心跳声)
m: Pardon? (竟然不理我,继续看电脑。不知道该不该再问,怯怯的说) I'm sorry, I
didn't catch what you said. (还是不理我!继续看电脑)
v: Do have any information of your future advior?
m: Yes. Here is his homepage. I also take some e-mails between us. Would you l
ike to see the e-mail?
v: Please. (收了我的e-mail,竟然放到了abstract下面!我心里说怎么不看呢,这个可
是很重要的呢!看了一会电脑开始看我的abstract,估计看不懂,没怎么看,又开始问了
)
v: Where is the rest of the thesis?
m: (没听清,迷茫状,她又重复了一遍。急忙找全文给她本来不想给,有点慌,幸亏我昨
天晚上最终决定还是带着吧)Here is the full text of my master thesis.
v: How do you know your future advisor?
m: (终于问到这个了,背诵了一遍,仍然有点紧张,偶尔有点停顿,不过还算流利)Las
t year, Professor *** came to our university to give us a lecture. We met and
discussed many questions about ATRP. He is very satisfied with my backgroud a
nd later in the e-mail correspondence he expressed the willingness that he wou
ld like to accept me as a Ph.D student in his group. You can see that from the
e-mails. (提醒她看e-mails,赫赫)
v: (开始翻看导师的主页了,又在电脑上狂查,一直面无表情。看了一会,终于开始看e
-mail了。我想这下有救了!一页只看了几秒钟,翻得挺快,不知道是浏览,还是因为是母
语看得快。之间还换着看电脑。本来想说点什么,但是打定了主意,对YYMM千万不要多说
,她问什么就说什么。我只是看着她不说话,现在稍微镇静下来了。其实她只是面无表情
,并不很冷酷的那种。很久没说话,我心里说,别看了,让我过了算了,赫赫。好象还有
很多问题没问呢,我琢磨着她接下来会问什么问题,先回忆一下答案)
v: (快看完e-mail了)You're not the only one ... (没听清楚)How do you find y
our future advisor?
m: (我FT!刚才不是说了吗!)You mean advisor? (不理我。只好再背一遍了——之间
还怀疑是不是自己上次听错了,接着又回答错了?反正我看她没怎么听我说话。背完了,
沉默了好一会,我又加了一句)He wants me to go to Pittsburgh earlier.
v:(又开始看电脑了。一边翻我的材料,一边在I20上狂写。完了,把我的abstract扔出
来了。我想这下有戏了!果然,不一会,又把我的材料都扔出来了。)Please go to win
dow 11.
m: Thank you very much! (其实我11都没听到,我听到Please就知道过了,抱着材料赶
紧走了。回头朝NANO点了下头,表示过了,本来想做个V形手势,结果手里都是东西腾不出
来)
