商務英語口語對話:陳述中的過渡
A: ... Now, that's all I want to say about world coal reserves. So let's move on to the next topic, renewable resources. There are three things we have to consider when talking about renewable resources. First, sustainability; second, marketability; lastly, the reality factor. Let's talk about each point in more , would you like to take it from here?
B: Certainly. As my colleague just mentioned, sustainability is a major concern when examining the potential output of a resource. Of course, as you can see from the content of our presentation today, with renewable resource, there is a much larger sustainability than with non-renewable resource. As was already said, it is always better to seek a renewable source of energy when possible.
好的.像我們同事剛剛提到的那樣,在評價一種資源的潛在產量時可持續性是主要因素.當然,你們從我們今天所作的陳述內容中也能看得出來,可再生資源比非可再生資源的可持續性要大得多.正如剛纔所說的,只要有可能尋求能源的可再生資源總不是壞事.
