B: yeah, I really got a lot of the session. The workshop topic was resolving personal problems. It was led by a professional human resoureces director. The teacher had a lot of experience, and I think we were all given a really good base to start with.

昨天你在研讨会上都学到了什么了?你认为值得一去吗?8 `9 g3 n/ P3 z- @
是的,我真的从会上学到了很多东西.会议主题是解决人事问题,由专业人力资源部主任牵头讨论.那位教师的专业知识很丰富,我认为一开始就为我们打下了很好的基础.
