So I’m here to represent the whole group, but. .um...when we got your e-mail message about being worried about our research project,

we were a little confused, we thought you were excited about our idea for the project.
我们有点疑惑不解,我们以为你对我们的项目设想很兴奋呢。
Well, I think it’s a great research topic, but when I looked closely at your plan for accomplishing the research,
我觉得它是个很棒的研究主题,但是当我仔细看你们完成研究的方案时,
I realized that your group was probably asking for some trouble.
我发现你们小组可能在自找麻烦。
What do you mean? I thought that, you know, by monitoring students studying in the library we could really get a good understanding of people’s study habits and stuff.

The thing is, I think you might have a problem because of the Hawthorne Effect.

The Hawthorne Effect is a technical term for when researchers...uh...more or less forget about a specific variable, the variable of the researchers themselves.

So you have to consider the effect your very presence will have on the people you are observing.

但是......所以你觉得......我是说我们的观察不是个秘密。
The students would know exactly what we would be doing, I mean, we’d put up a sign right outside the library.

3.写作包答案:
中译英1:
When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.
中译英2:
Generally speaking, studying abroad refers to the act of pursuing education in another country. Studying abroad can not only enrich people's knowledge and broaden their horizons but also cultivate their independence. Nowadays, China has already become the largest source country of overseas students. The number approximately reached 2.65 million from 1978 to 2012 and would increase continuously with a speed of 30% each year in the future. Many Chinese are worried about the continuous craze, for it may lead to brain drain. However, more people hold an optimistic attitude towards it, believing that with the development of globalization, these overseas students could serve as a window for foreigners to learn more about China and help publicize Chinese culture to some extent.
