2017年06月六级第2套仔细阅读 Passage 1 原文翻译及答案解析

Tennessee's technical and community colleges will not outsource (外包) management of their facilities to a private company, a decision one leader said was bolstered by an analysis of spending at each campus.

田纳西州的技术和社区学院不会将其设施管理外包给一家私营公司，一位领导人表示，这一决定得到了对每个校园支出分析的支撑。

In an email sent Monday to college presidents in the Tennessee Board of Regents system, outgoing Chancellor John Morgan said an internal analysis showed that each campus' spending on facilities management fell well below the industry standards identified by the state. Morgan said those findings — which included data from the system's 13 community colleges, 27 technical colleges and six universities — were part of the decision not to move forward with Governor Bill Haslam's proposal to privatize management of state buildings in an effort to save money.

在周一发给田纳西州校董会系统学院校长的电子邮件中，即将离任的校长约翰·摩根表示，内部分析显示，每个校园在设施管理上的支出远低于该州确定的行业标准。摩根说，这些发现——包括该系统13所社区学院、27所技术学院和6所大学的数据——是决定不推进州长比尔·哈斯拉姆为节省资金而提议将州立建筑管理私有化的一部分。

"While these numbers are still being validated by the state, we feel any adjustments they might suggest will be immaterial," Morgan wrote to the presidents. "System institutions are operating very efficiently based on this analysis, raising the question of the value of pursuing a broad scale outsourcing initiative."

“虽然这些数字仍在由州政府验证，但我们认为他们可能提出的任何调整都将是无关紧要的，”摩根在写给校长的信中说道。“基于这一分析，系统机构运营非常高效，这引发了对推行大规模外包计划价值的疑问。”

Workers' advocates have criticized Haslam's plan, saying it would mean some campus workers would lose their jobs or benefits. Haslam has said colleges would be free to opt in or out of the outsourcing plan, which has not been finalized.

工人倡导者批评了哈斯拉姆的计划，称这将意味着一些校园工人将失去工作或福利。哈斯拉姆曾表示，学院可以自由选择加入或退出外包计划，该计划尚未最终确定。

Morgan notified the Haslam administration of his decision to opt out in a letter sent last week. That letter, which includes several concerns Morgan has with the plan, was originally obtained by The Commercial Appeal in Memphis.

摩根在上周发送的一封信中通知了哈斯拉姆政府他决定退出的决定。这封信包含了摩根对该计划的几点担忧，最初由孟菲斯的《商业呼声报》获得。

In an email statement from the state's Office of Customer Focused Government, which is examining the possibility of outsourcing, spokeswoman Michelle R. Martin said officials were still working to analyze the data from the Board of Regents. Data on management expenses at the college system and in other state departments will be part of a "business justification" the state will use as officials deliberate the specifics of an outsourcing plan.

在州客户服务政府办公室的一份电子邮件声明中，该办公室正在审查外包的可能性，发言人米歇尔·R·马丁表示，官员们仍在努力分析来自校董会的数据。学院系统和其他州部门的管理费用数据将成为州政府官员审议外包计划细节时使用的“商业理由”的一部分。

"The state's facilities management project team is still in the process of developing its business justification and expects to have that completed and available to the public at the end of February," Martin said. "At this time there is nothing to take action on since the analysis has yet to be completed."

“州设施管理项目团队仍在制定其商业理由的过程中，预计将在二月底完成并向公众提供，”马丁说。“目前没有需要采取行动的事项，因为分析尚未完成。”

Morgan's comments on outsourcing mark the second time this month that he has come out against one of Haslam's plans for higher education in Tennessee. Morgan said last week that he would retire at the end of January because of the governor's proposal to split off six universities of the Board of Regents system and create separate governing boards for each of them. In his resignation letter, Morgan called the reorganization "unworkable."

摩根关于外包的评论标志着他本月第二次公开反对哈斯拉姆在田纳西州高等教育方面的计划之一。摩根上周表示，他将在一月底退休，原因是州长提议将校董会系统的六所大学分离出来，并为每所大学创建独立的治理委员会。在辞职信中，摩根称重组“不可行”。
