Thankyou!Translation对话1问：除了学习，你有什么其他爱好吗？答：我喜欢打橄榄球，我们学校有着一支非常棒的男子橄榄球队，他们赢得了第六届大学生运动会的冠军。问：你未来有什么打算呢？答：因为在成长过程中有许多不确定性，所以我无法具体描述我未来的情况，但是我应该把握现在，做好手中的每一件事情。问：能向我介绍下沈阳的名胜吗？BackTranslation答：沈阳是东北地区的经济、文化、交通和商贸中心，中国的工业重镇和历史文化名城。沈阳是首批中国优秀旅游城市,现有地上、地下文物古迹数千余处,有众多自然景观和人文景观，全球关注2006沈阳世界园艺博览会。沈阳的“一宫两陵”已经申报为世界文化遗产。问：你们学校的食堂怎样呢？答：食堂每日供应许多样式的食品，从四川菜到广东菜不等，还有饮料和零食。

BackTranslation对话2问：可以告诉我你关于网络的看法吗？答：因特网带领我们步入信息时代，而且正在改变着我们的生活方式。网络教育、网络聊天以及电子商务都可以通过网络进行。当然在我们享受网络带来便捷的同时，它也带来一些负面的东西。问：沈阳的气候怎么样？答：沈阳市四季分明、降水集中、日照充足。BackTranslation

问：能向我谈谈你的同学或朋友吗？

答：张雪是一个刻苦学习/聪明的学生。她是我们班学习成绩优秀的学生之一。她是老师的得意门生。我们是很好的朋友，什么考试对她来说都没什么。BackTranslation什么是制造这个问题，你以前也许从未思考过，但是制造就在我们周围，而且它影响着我们生活的方方面面。那么，到底什么是制造呢？在这里“它”说的是制造。说句实在话，在我们的周围所看到的并非“制造”，而是制造出来的产品。请你现在就环顾一下你的周围，说出你所看到的一些制品，如椅子、笔记本、蓝色牛仔裤、黑板、书本、地板砖、灯泡、铅笔、眼镜—在我们的周围，几乎每一样东西都是制造出来的产品。BackTranslation制造业对于我们的社会非常重要，在经济中起着重要作用。经济是一个包括产品生产，销售和服务的运转体系。许多人从事制造业的工作，他们生产产品，同时也用他们赚来的钱购买制造出来的产品。人们买的产品越多，制造的产品也就越多，从事制造业工作的人也就越多。制造对经济从另一方面讲也非常重要。原材料一旦制造成有用的产品，它将值更多的钱，这就叫附加值。于是，制造过程就为产品增加了附加价值。Back现代制造技术

制造工业需要三种基本类型的资源：物料资源，人力资源，和资本。

在组织工业生产中有七种主要步骤：研究与发展,生产工艺,生产计划与控制，质量控制，人事管理，制造技术和市场营销。研究发展就是对新产品、新材料、新加工方法，以及旧技术提高进行计划和开发。研究发展是工业化世界中一个重要的、占比重很大的部门，并且需要许多不同潜质的人共同协作。Back生产工艺是在工业中主要同生产工具有关的一环。生产工艺包括需要加工产品的工具、机械和设备。生产计划和控制中最重要的部分是生产线安排、时序安排、生产分工和生产计划规划。机器设备必须安置妥当，以致顺利生产加工，而无浪费时间和效率的现象发生。Back质量控制可以定义为避免缺陷和次品的行为。在质量控制管理下可确保产品能被买方接受。
