Lesson 19: A classroom presentation
Pelajaran 19: Presentasi di kelas
Angel: Good morning everyone.
L1: Selamat pagi semuanya.
Angel: Today we’re presenting the findings of our research into student stress.
L1: Hari ini kami akan menyampaikan temuan riset kami tentang stress di kalangan pelajar.
Angel: This presentation will last about 20 minutes. First Rocky will describe our methodology. Then Katie will show the results of our survey and then I’ll speak about the conclusions we drew. After that we’ll take questions. And now I’ll hand you over to Rocky.
L1: Presentasi ini akan berlangsung sekitar 20 menit. Pertama Rocky akan menjelaskan metodologinya. Lalu Katie akan menunjukkan hasil survey kami, dan kemudian saya akan menyampaikan kesimpulan kami. Setelah itu kami akan menjawab pertanyaan. Dan sekarang waktu saya serahkan kepada Rocky.
Rocky: Thanks Angel. As you can see, the title of our research is “Stress and the International Student. Major causes and suggested solutions”.
L1: Terima kasih Angel. Seperti kalian lihat, judul riset kami adalah “ Stress dan Pelajar Internasional. Penyebab utama dan usul solusinya”.
Rocky: We polled a group of 28 international students. The respondents’ ages ranged from 19 to 30. You can see the variety of nationalities in this column.
L1: Kami menanyai 28 pelajar internasional. Responden berusia antara 19 sampai 30 tahun. Kalian dapat melihat variasi kebangsaan mereka dalam kolom ini.
Rocky: This is a copy of our questionnaire. We asked students to rate their level of stress from zero to five. Zero was no stress and five was extreme stress. The next question concerned…
L1: Ini fotokopi kuesioner-nya. Kami meminta responden untuk menilai tingkat stress mereka dari nol sampai lima. Nol artinya tidak ada stress dan lima artinya stress
yang sangat tinggi. Pertanyaan kedua menyangkut…
Rocky: … And now Katie will talk about the survey results.
L1: … Dan sekarang Katie akan menyampaikan hasil survey.
Katie: Thanks Rocky. Well, the results of this survey were very interesting.
L1: Terima kasih Rocky. Well, hasil survey ini sangat menarik.
Katie: This first graph shows that most students experience some degree of stress.
L1: Grafik pertama ini menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar pelajar mengalami stress pada tingkat tertentu.
Katie: Here’s where it gets interesting. If I can draw your attention to this column here…
L1: Disinilah menariknya. Perhatikan kolom yang ini …
Katie: …you’ll notice that the main cause of stress in international students is separation anxiety. They miss their friends, their family, in other words, their support group.
L1: Anda dapat melihat bahwa penyebab utama stress di kalangan pelajar internasional adalah kecemasan karena berpisah. Mereka kangen teman-teman, keluarga, dengan kata lain, kelompok support mereka.
Angel: So students found that calling home regularly and also talking over their problems with new friends here, eased their stress a lot. And now we’ll take questions. Could someone get the lights please? Yes, George?
L1: Jadi para pelajar mendapati bahwa sering menelepon ke rumah dan juga membicarakan masalah mereka dengan teman-teman baru disini, sangat membantu mengurangi stress. Dan sekarang kami akan menjawab pertanyaan. Ada yang bisa membantu menyalakan lampu? Ya, George?
George: On your last slide, didn’t understand the first column.
L1: Di slide yang terakhir, saya tidak mengerti kolom pertama.
Angel: OK. Let’s go back to it.
L1: OK. Kita kembali kesana.
Angel: You mean this one?
L1: Maksudmu yang ini?
George: Yes.
L1: Ya.
Angel: One of our respondents said that his stress was relieved by foot massage!
L1: Salah seorang responden kami mengatakan, stressnya berkurang dengan pijat kaki!
Angel: So, if there are no more questions, we’d like to thank you all for your time today. You’ve been a great audience.
L1: So, kalau tidak ada pertanyaan lagi, kami mengucapkan terima kasih atas waktu kalian hari ini. Kalian sudah sangat membantu.

# L1: Selamat pagi semuanya.
English: Good morning everyone.
L1: Hari ini saya akan berbicara tentang Stress dan Pelajar Internasional.
English: Today I’m going to talk about Stress and the International Student.
L1: Presentasi saya akan berlangsung kira-kira 15 menit.
English: My talk will last about fifteen minutes.
L1: Pertama saya akan menjelaskan metodologi kami.
English: First I’ll take you through our methodology.
L1: Kemudian kita akan melihat hasil survey.
English: Then we’ll look at the results of the survey.
L1: Setelah itu saya akan menyampaikan kesimpulannya dan kemungkinan solusinya.
English: Following that I’ll discuss my conclusion and possible solutions.
L1: Dan kemudian saya akan menjawab pertanyaan.
English: And then I’ll take questions.

#L1: Memperkenalkan pembicara pertama.
L1: Dan sekarang waktu saya serahkan kepada John, yang akan membahas tentang metodologi.
English: And now I’ll hand you over to John, who’ll discuss methodology.
L1: Kalian lihat dari slide pertama ini bahwa kebanyakan pelajar pernah merasa stress.
English: You can see by this first slide that the majority of students feel some degree of stress.
L1: Dan grafik ini menunjukkan penyebab utama stress berkaitan dengan rasa kangen rumah.
English: And this graph shows a major cause of stress is related to homesickness.
L1: Jadi kesimpulannya, pelajar yang menggunakan strategi ini dan mencari pertolongan, mendapati bahwa stress mereka mulai berkurang.
English: So in conclusion, the students who use these strategies and seek help, find that their stress starts to pass.

# L1: Menjawab pertanyaan.
L1: Ada pertanyaan?
English: Are there any questions?
L1: Apakah ini menjawab pertanyaanmu?
English: Does that answer your question?
L1: Dan sekian presentasi saya.
English: And that concludes my presentation.
L1: Mengucapkan terima kasih kepada hadirin.
