文字稿

Narrator
欢迎回来！今天的公司里可发生了不少的事儿：因为呀，在送货方面出现了几个特别让人难堪的低级错误，所以美国总公司要求这个月所有的订单都得再过一遍。所以Paul 和重要的客户在联系，看是否都送对了货了。

Paul
I just want to check you're happy with the grapes?

Narrator
就是他惹的祸，现在他正在和客户确认所有订单信息都是准确的。

Tom
Yeah, yeah, I just want to make absolutely sure we get the order right for you and have the correct number of fruit...

Narrator
还在电话上聊天呢，Denise。

Denise
Brown shoes don't look right on him! He's not a brown shoe sort of person...

Narrator
安娜被派到存货的仓库。Anna, you are looking worried.

Anna
I have to speak to Mr Ingle. Apparently he's not very friendly! He might not like me asking lots of questions!

Narrator
Well, be polite, and start your sentences with things like these:

I just want to make sure that... 我想确认一下…
Could you possibly clarify... 您能再说清楚一些吗…
I just want to check... 我想查一下…
Just to be absolutely clear... 就想百分之一百的确认一下…
One thing I wasn't sure of was... 我有一点不太确认的就是…

Narrator
Good luck!

Anna
Mr Ingle, I don't think we've met yet. I'm Anna.

Ingle
Hello. Oi! What are you doing with those boxes? I told you to put them in storage. Anna, is it?

Anna
Yes, sorry to bother you, I just want to check something. We've had a few problems with orders…

Ingle
Well, that's not my fault. I do exactly what I'm asked to do. No, not there, in storage!

Anna
Oh, well, I just want to make sure that…

Ingle
Thirty years I've been doing this job, and I've never made a mistake.

Anna
Of course, but because we've had problems, we need to make absolutely sure that all deliveries are correct.

Ingle
Humph.

Anna
Could you possibly clarify what went out in today's delivery to Mr Berry of, er, Bluetree Enterprises?

Ingle
500 redcurrants.

Anna
Right. That's fine.

Narrator
Well done, Anna. 看，这不是很顺利吗？别忘了还有一个短语可以用 – I just want to check…

Anna
OK. Now, I just want to check what was sent to Cocoline Ltd – it should have been fifteen mangoes.

Ingle
Yeah. That's right.

Anna
Great, and just to be absolutely clear, you sent the soft mangoes, not the plastic ones?

Ingle
Yes, just like I was told to.

Anna
Good. One thing I wasn't sure of was whether we had enough yellow bananas in stock – I know there are some purple ones, but-

Ingle
Yeah well, we do need more yellow bananas.

Anna
Okay, I'll just write that down. Thank you Mr Ingle. By the way, I like your overalls!

Ingle
Oh, thanks.

Narrator
嗯，他好像不是特别友善，不过安娜还是完成了她的任务， 以下是她用到的一些短语：

I just want to make sure that...
Could you possibly clarify...
I just want to check...
Just to be absolutely clear...
One thing I wasn't sure of was...

还好，所有存货看着都还好。可是在办公室里，Tom 的情况不妙啊。

Tom
Really? Here it says 5,000 not five... oh...
