PEOPLE IN TOURISM
DIALOGUE
CHOOSING A CAREER IN TOURISM
Memorize and dramatize:
Student 1: I hear you are going to choose a career in tourism. |
|
Студент 1: Я слышал, ты собираешься выбрать карь-еру в туризме. |
Student 2: Yes, I am. Definitely! Why are you asking? |
|
Студент 2: Да. Опреде-ленно! Почему ты спрашиваешь? |
Student 1: I am planning to enter some tourist college. But I’m not quite sure what I’m going to be. |
|
Студент 1: Я планирую поступить в какой-нибудь туристский колледж. Но я не совсем уверен, кем я буду. |
Student 2: Are you keen on tourism at all? Are you fond of travelling? Are you interested in work with people? |
|
Студент 2: А ты вообще интересуешься туризмом? Ты увлекаешься путе-шествиями? Тебя инте-ресует работа с людьми? |
Student 1: Yes, I am. Absolutely! I really enjoy all of these. But the fact is that I don’t know any jobs in tourism. |
|
Студент 1: Да. Конечно! Мне, действительно, нравится все это. Но дело в том, что я не знаю никаких профессий в туризме. |
Student 2: You want to enter a tourist college but don’t know any tourist jobs. Isn’t that amazing? |
|
Студент 2: Ты хочешь поступать в туристский колледж, но не знаешь никаких туристских про-фессий. Разве это не удивительно? |
Student 1: Put me in the picture, then! |
|
Студент 1: Так введи меня в курс дела! |
Student 2: People in tourism are tour operators and travel agents, booking agents and ticket agents, travel consultants and tourism managers, tour guides and guides-interpreters, animators and travel writers ... |
|
Студент 2: Работники в туризме - это туроператоры и турагенты, агенты по бронированию и билетные агенты, консультанты по туризму и менеджеры туризма, экскурсоводы и ги- ды-переводчики, аниматоры и туристские журналисты. |
Student 1: Wow, quite a choice! What job are you going to take on? |
|
Студент 1: Да-а, ну и выбор! Какой работой ты собираешься заняться? |
Student 2: I’m thinking of the position of a travel agent to begin with. I’m planning to study at the same time. After graduation I’m going to continue as a tour operator. |
|
Студент 2: Я думаю о должности турагента для начала. Я планирую учиться одновременно. После окончания я собираюсь продолжить работу в ка-честве туроператора. |
Student 1: What does the job of a tour operator involve? And what does a travel agent do? |
|
Студент 1: Что охватывает работа туроператора? И чем занимается турагент? |
Student 2: Briefly speaking, a tour operator develops tours and sells them wholesale to travel agents. А travel agent sells tours and separate tourist services retail to customers. |
|
Студент 2: Говоря кратко, туроператор разрабатывает туры и продает их оптом турагентам. Турагент про-дает туры и отдельные ус-луги в розницу клиентам. |
Student 1: Wait a minute! I’m trying to grasp the difference. As far as I understand, tour operators are wholesalers while travel agents are retailers. |
|
Студент 1: Подожди минутку! Я пытаюсь уловить разницу. Насколько я понимаю, туроператоры являются оптовиками, в то время, как турагенты - розничные торговцы.
|
Student 2: Exactly! Both tour operators and travel agents handle a lot of operations and deal with people. |
|
Студент 2: Точно! И туроператоры, и турагенты осуществляют много опе-раций и имеют дело с людьми. |
Student 1: And how do a booking agent and a ticket agent differ? |
|
Студент 1: А как отлича-ются агент по бронирова-нию и билетный агент? |
Student 2: A booking agent makes sales by telephone, while a ticket agent also issues tickets and meets customers in person. |
|
Студент 2: Агент по бро-нированию производит продажи по телефону, в то время, как билетный агент также выписывает билеты и встречается с клиентами лично. |
Student 1: Are foreign languages essential in all these jobs? |
|
Студент 1: Иностранные изыки существенны для всей этой работы? |
Student 2: Knowledge of English is essential. It’s a must if you want to be successful in your career.
|
|
Студент 2: Знание английского существенно. Это обязательное условие, если ты хочешь преуспеть в своей карьере. |
Student 1: I’m not doing very well in English. Is your English getting any better? |
|
Студент 1: У меня не очень хорошо идут дела с англий-ским. А твой английский сколько-нибудь улучшается? |
Student 2: I hope so. I practise it every day. I receive extensive tutoring at the Russian International Academy for Tourism. Knowledge is power! |
|
Студент 2: Надеюсь, что да. Я практикуюсь в нем каждый день. Я получаю основательную подготовку в Российской международ-ной академии туризма. В знании - сила! |
