Part A:

We're very grateful that the Committee has agreed that a representative for the Students' Union can present students' suggestions about the design for the proposed new Union building.

我们非常感谢委员会同意，学生会的代表能就拟议的新大楼的设计提出建议。

We appreciate that some of our ideas may not be feasible in the circumstances.

我们知道我们的一些想法在这种情况下是不可能的，

But we do feel that it is important that the ultimate beneficiaries of the facilities should have some say in its design.

但我们确实认为，在设计中，设施的最终受益者应该有一定的说语权是很重要的。

If I could start by briefly explaining what steps were taken to find out student opinion, and how we have arrived at conclusions.

我能简要地解释什么步骤来找出学生的意见，以及我们如何得出结论。

Firstly, a meeting was held in the current Union for our SU Committee to explain the options.

首先，在现在的公会会展开一个会议，会SU委员们解释选项。

Then we invited all students to submit written suggestions for the design, placing cards in a suggestion box.

然后，我们邀请所有学生针对设计提交书面建议，放在在一个建议箱里。

These suggestions then provided the basis for the design of a questionnaire, which was completed by approximately two thousand of the College students over a period of three weeks.

然后这些建议提供了一个问卷调查设计的基础，在超过三周的时间约二千的大学生完成了这个问卷。

Finally, the SU Committee collated the results and drew up a report.

最后，SU员会整理结果，起草了一份报告。

If I can just hand around a copy of that report.

如果我能有那份报告的副本在手就好了

This presentation is essentially a summary and discussion of the key points of this report.

此演示文稿实质上是本报告要点的总结和讨论。

So, in broad terms, the consensus was as follows.

因此，从广义上来看，协商一致。首先，关于选址的关键问题．我们提出了你们提到的三个选项。

Firstly, regarding the crucial matter of the site, we presented the three options that you have proposed.

首先，关于选址的关键问题．我们提出了你们提到的三个选项。

One: in the city centre, near the Faculty of Education; two: on the outskirts of the city, near the park , and three: out of town, near the halls of residence.

一：在城市中心教育学院附近；2：城市的郊区，公园附近，和三：出城，靠近居住的大堂。我们要求学生举出理由支持和反对这些选址。

We asked students to cite reasons for and against these sites, and .... and there was remarkable agreement on all three.

我们要求学生举出理由支持和反对这些选址。这三个选项都有显著的一致性。

Site One was unpopular because of traffic and parking problems.

因为交通和停车问题，选址一不受欢迎。

Site Two had a number of supporters, mainly because it was close to most lecture rooms.

And Site Three, out of town, near the halls of residence, was clearly the most popular because of access from living quarters.

选址2，有很多的支持者，主要是因为它接近大多数的演讲室。而选址3，在离城市近的公寓大厅里显然是最受欢迎的，因为从居住区就可以到那里。

It was clear that the Union was mainly to be used after lectures.

很显然，这个联盟主要是在演讲之后使用。

It was also felt the larger site would allow more room for a choice of facilities.

还认为，较大的选址将允许更多的空间来选择设施。

Part B:

Our second area of interest was obviously the facilities.

我们感兴趣的领域很明显是设施：

There was minimal interest in having a library on the premises.

在选址上有一个图书馆是最少感兴趣的，

But one option seemed to be a reading room instead, more useful.

但有另一个选择是一个阅览室，这个更有用。

We would like the current table games room to be replaced with a small gym and if possible, small swimming pool, not, of course, Olympic size.

我们希望把现有的桌上游戏室改成小的健身房。如果可能，希望有一个小游泳池，当然不是奥运会规模的!

There was a large number of respondents in favour of a travel agent's and insurance centre.

有大量的受访者赞成旅行社和保险中心。

We also request that there be the offices of the Student Counselling Centre, moving this from the Refectory.

我们还要求有学生辅导中心的办公室，把这个从食堂搬出来。

There was however much disagreement about whether to build a drama theatre.

然而，关于是否要建一个戏剧剧场有许多不同意见。

Just over forty percent of the respondents were in favour, but largish minority were strongly against it, claiming that it is elitist and a waste of funds.

只有超过四十的受访者赞成，但极少数强烈反对，声称这是精英的和资金的浪费。

Essentially the jury is out on that.

在这方面，陪审员本来就是反对的。

Finally, given a number of unfortunate incidents in the current Union over the past few months, a strong point was repeatedly made about security.

最后，鉴于目前联盟在过去几个月里发生的不幸事件的数目，一个反复强调的点就是安全性。

The recommendations would be at least video surveillance and security personnel who would check Student Union cards on request.

该建议指的是至少有视频监控和安保人员，他们会按照要求检查学生会卡。

We doubt if it would be feasible to have a check reception of all people coming in.

我们怀疑是否能在接待处检查所有进来的人。

Well, this is the summary of the views of student population.

好的，这是学生群体的观点的总结。

As I say, further details are given in our report but I'm happy to take any questions if you have them.

正如我说的，在我们的报告中给出了更充分的细节，但我很高兴能接受任何提问，如果你们有的话…(淡出)
