"Where"を使ってさまざまな活動をしている場所について尋ねることを学びます。マーティンはオフィスビルの建設現場を訪れ現場監督と話しています。

  This is English USA, on the Voice of America. Now, Lesson 77, Part 1.

 

 

 

FOREMAN:

Have you ever visited a construction site before?

 

MARTIN:

Yes, but never a site that was so busy. How many men do you have working here?

 

FOREMAN:

About a hundred men and women. Could we go into the office?

 

MARTIN:

Not yet. I would like to look around first. Where is the office?

 

FOREMAN:

Over there. Do you see that green building? That's the office.

 

MARTIN:

Good. What's that man standing on the corner doing?

 

FOREMAN:

He's in charge of the cement trucks. The trucks bring in the cement, and he shows the drivers where to put the cement.

 

MARTIN:

That looks dangerous.

 

FOREMAN:

Everything is a little dangerous. They are very careful though.

 

MARTIN:

Where do the trucks come from?

 

FOREMAN:

They come from the cement factory.

 

MARTIN:

Where is that?

 

FOREMAN:

It's about ten miles from here. They mix the cement and then put it in the truck. The truck brings it here.

 

MARTIN:

The trucks mix the cement too, don't they?

 

FOREMAN:

They have to. They have to keep the cement moving or it will get hard. Do you see that road?

 

MARTIN:

Yes. Is that where the trucks come in?

 

FOREMAN:

Yes. They drive in there, then go where the workers need cement. There goes a truck right now.

 

MARTIN:

Where do the drivers come from? Where do they live?

 

FOREMAN:

They live around here. We hire local drivers.

 

MARTIN:

Always?

 

FOREMAN:

Yes. We're a local construction company. We hire local workers, drivers, everyone.

 

MARTIN:

Where do the women work?

 

FOREMAN:

They can work anywhere. Some of them operate equipment. Do you see that crane over there?

 

MARTIN:

I see several cranes.

 

FOREMAN:

Look at the one in front of the office. It's operated by a woman. Many of the women operate equipment.

 

MARTIN:

How many women work here?

 

FOREMAN:

Maybe ten. Not very many.

 

MARTIN:

Why don't you have more?

 

FOREMAN:

Not many women want to work in construction. We don't have many applications. That's a woman on top of the building.

 

MARTIN:

I wouldn't do that.

 

FOREMAN:

I wouldn't either. What do you want to look at, Martin?

 

MARTIN:

Everything. Mostly, I want to talk to your workers.

 

FOREMAN:

Which ones?

 

MARTIN:

Any of them. I'm interested in people where they work.

 

FOREMAN:

Well, look around. I'll introduce you to anyone.

 

MARTIN:

Where is the toilet?

 

FOREMAN:

The toilet? It's next to the office.

 

MARTIN:

Oh, I see.

 

FOREMAN:

I'll meet you at the office. We can go on from there.

Some women are driving equipment.

 

YOU:

Those men are working with steel.

 

YOU:

[Where do they work?]

 

 

 

 

MARTIN:

The truck drivers are coming with the cement.

 

YOU:

[Where do they come from?]

 

 

 

 

FOREMAN:

This is the office. Do you want to see inside?

 

MARTIN:

I don't think so now. Can we see the workers outside first?

 

FOREMAN:

Sure. Let's walk around the site and look at all the activities.
