Woman: Thank you, Jonathan, and good morning, everyone. This year’s search for the Factories of the Year has produced a bumper crop of outstanding winners, which is very welcome proof that the old economy isn’t dead, but is emerging revitalised from its recent problems. As ever, we initiated our search for the best by sending each participating factory a questionnaire. This consisted of fourteen pages and probably more questions than the recipients would have liked. From their answers, each factory was assessed on a basket of performance criteria.
女：谢谢乔纳森的介绍，大家早上好。今年在评选年度工厂的过程中，我们看到了大量颇为出色的胜出者，这恰好证明了我们的传统经济并没有死亡，反而从最近的问题中焕发出了活力。这点颇让人感到欣慰。我们一直都是通过向每个参赛工厂发放问卷的形式来评选最佳工厂，今年也不例外。我们的问卷有14页，问题的量可能也超过了受访者愿意接受的范围。每个工厂都是在他们的回答的基础上，按照一系列绩效标准来评估的。
