这是北京一家翻译公司3月14日安排的一份《合资经营合同》，字数大约1万字，周五交稿，所以时间比较紧张，好在合同文字表述还算简单，比一般的上午合同要简单一点，这是译员最大的快慰。
This job was assigned by a translation company in Beijing dated February 14, roughly 10,000 Chinese characters all told. The well-polished version is scheduled for delivery on Friday morning. As luck would have it, the whole stuff is a little easier compared with the identical ones I usually deal with, so i feel greatly pleased with this job, anyhow.
