《English Translation》

黄刚: Xiao Pan, welcome to your internship. I’m Huang Gang, and I’m in charge of this archives room. I’ve read your materials before. You’re from Vietnam, right?
小潘: Yes, hello, Teacher Huang! My name is Xiao Pan, and I study history in Beijing. I’m very happy to intern here, though I’m also a little nervous.
黄刚: No need to be nervous. The work here is fairly quiet. It mainly involves organizing old documents and doing simple computer data entry.
小潘: That sounds very interesting. I’ve always wanted to look at real historical materials. This will be very helpful for my studies.
黄刚: Good. But I need to explain a few rules first. First, you may not take documents out of the room. Second, you may not take photos casually. Third, do not post the content online.
小潘: I understand. This is confidentiality, right? I’ll definitely pay attention.
黄刚: Yes, this is called a “confidentiality requirement.” In government work, this is very important. Although the work may not seem lively, it is very valuable.
小潘: I understand. History is not only what’s in books; these materials are also very important.
黄刚: Very well said. Start with simple document organization first. You can ask me anytime if you have questions.
