Forecast for the future
对未来的预测
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to recongize the features of an effective presentation.
本课结束，你将知道有效的陈述有哪些特点。
STUART: In contrast, there's been a population boom since 2005 of more than twenty percent. In fact, it's estimated that by 2010 there'll be more than fifty thousand people living in the downtown area. Can you see that?
自从2005以来，人口比原来激增了25%。事实上，预测到2010年，会有超过50%的人口居住在市中心。你能看到吗？
LAWYER: Your graphics are pretty small, Stuart.
你的图有点小，斯图尔特。
STUART: I'm sorry about that. It's estimated that by 2015 there'll be more than a hundred thousand people living in the downtown Los Angeles area and that figure is estimated to more than triple by the year 2020 to almost half a million people living in the downtown area. Now just think about that, more than sixteen million people living within a fifteen mile radius of the downtown area. That's actually going to lead to an estimated five thousand jobs. long term jobs!
抱歉。预计到2015年，超过10万人会住在洛杉矶，到了2020年人数预计是三倍多，有50万人住在市中心。现在来想一想，超过1600万住在一个半径为15英里的市中心地区。那也意味着需要大约5000个长期的工作。
STUART: Which admittedly is not the most exciting portion of my presentation but I'll tell you what is, it is this next thing. It is the renovation redevelopment. Would you believe that within the last few years there've been more than twenty five theatres that have come into the downtown area. In fact by 2015 we'll have more theatres than Broadway or Paris and on top of that 4 skyscrapers, office buildings, apartments, condos and shops.
不得不承认，这并不是我的陈述中最精彩的地方，但是我接下来会告诉你。这是一种革新的再发展。你能相信在最后的几年中，有超过25个电影院入住在市中心。事实上，到了2015年，我们会有比百老汇和巴黎更多的电影院，在4座摩天大楼，办公建筑，公寓大厦和商店之上。
