基础听力精选【80】
秘书不一定要唯命适从,可当着别人的面,还是给上司点面子吧!可惜外国人不太理解这套“礼节”,所以我们才能听到Steve和Lisa今天这段“精彩”的对话。
S: Lisa, do you think you could come in here now?
L: Of course, Mr. Dawson; I'll be right in. What do you need sir?
S: Could you make Mr. Goddard here about twenty copies of his outline.
L: Why? Doesn't he have a secretary?
S: Of course he does. But we're working on a project together and I would really appreciate it if you would just cooperate with me right now.
L: All right, all right, you don't have to get mad. Do you say ten or twenty copies?
J: Actually ten will be fine. It's small group today.
S: But I said twenty, so make it twenty.
L: Yes, sir, Mr. Dawson.
Lisa,你觉得现在能来吗?
当然,Dawson先生。马上就来。你需要什么?
你能帮这位Goddard先生复印20份提纲吗?
怎么?他没有秘书?
他当然有。但我们现在正在做一个项目,而且如果你马上与我们合作我会非常感激的。
好的好的,你没必要发脾气。你说10份还是20份?
其实10份就够了,今天是个小组。
但我说了20,印20份。
好的,Dawson先生。
