Attitude towards jobs /ˈætɪtjuːd/ n. 态度、看法 Wang Yiming is reading an interview in a magazine. A journalist from China News is interviewing a book restorer at the National Library. /rɪˈstɔːrə/ n. 做修复工作的人 /ˈɪntəvjuː/ n. 采访、面试 Background knowledge If you have a damaged ancient book, how would you deal with it? /ˈdæmɪdʒd/ adj. 有损伤的 /ˈeɪnʃənt/ adj. 古老的 I would get it repaired/take photos of it and keep it in a safe place. Read the interview. Journalist: Hello, Mr Du. Not many people have heard of book restoration. Could you tell us what you do? Mr Du: Actually, my job is to repair the ancient books which have been damaged over the long periods of time. In our country, more than 10 million old books are waiting for restoration due to worms eating their way into books or because of some damage caused by damp, fire or war. /ˌrestəˈreɪʃn/ n. 修复、复原 /djuː tu/ 由于、因为 /wɜːm/ n. 蠕虫、寄生虫 /dæmp/ n. 湿气 Read the interview. Journalist: What does it take to restore ancient books? Mr Du: Professional skills. In the past, only simple tools like scissors, tweezers and brushes were needed. But now, modern equipment is also very helpful for testing the paper and carrying out other types of research. When we work, we need to be very careful and patient. Sometimes, it takes a whole day or even more to fix only one page if it is seriously damaged. Repairing an ancient book is like doing an operation on a patient. Some people call us book savers. /prəˈfeʃənl/ adj. 专业的、职业性的 /ˈsɪzəz/ n. 剪刀 /ˈtwiːzəz/ n. 镊子、小夹钳 /rɪˈsɜːtʃ/ n. 研究、调查 /ˌɒpəˈreɪʃn/ n. 手术 Read the interview. Journalist: How long have you been working as a book saver? Mr Du: Since 1974. After I left the army, I learned from my master in a local museum. I soon took an interest in this work. I have been doing this for decades. /ˈɑːmi/ n. 军队 /ˈmɑːstə/ n. 师傅 /ˈdɛkeɪdz/ n. 十年 Read the interview. Journalist: What keeps you going? Mr Du: It’s love and passion that keep me going. I never feel bored. This is what I am good at. Once I took up this work, it meant a job for life. However, I am worried as we don’t have enough “doctors” to rescue so many old “patients”. Saving their “lives” is our responsibility and we are racing against time. But we cannot work extra hours or at weekends, because our “patients” are stored away then. /ˈpæʃn/ n. 激情、酷爱 /ˈekstrə/ adj. 额外的、附加的 /stɔː/ v. 把…存入仓库， 存放; 贮存 与... 赛跑 Read the interview. Journalist: What would you like to say to young people? Mr Du: It’s great to see more young people joining our team and choosing to stay. They have good educational backgrounds, and use more scientific methods. They also help with digitalisation, so the public can read these records. Young savers call me “Master”, but I would rather think of myself as their teacher. Some masters might be unwilling to pass down all their skills, but as a teacher, I want these young people to do better than me. /ˌdɪdʒɪtəlaɪˈzeɪʃn/ n. 数字化 /ʌnˈwɪlɪŋ/ adj. 不情愿的 General understanding What is the interview mainly about?
