Narrator
欢迎回到 “白领英语” 系列节目,Anna 和 Tom 两人可真不走运。他们和重要的客户成功地进行了洽谈,正准备回英国,结果到了机场才知道他们的航班被取消了。这可怎么办啊?

Tom
Right, they've rebooked us onto the next flight, which is at seven o'clock tomorrow morning.

Anna
Tomorrow morning! What are we going to do until then?

Tom
It's OK, Anna. Calm down. I've sorted out a hotel… quite a nice one actually.

Anna
But what about our new contract? I've got to sort it out!

Tom
Anna, take a deep breath… it'll be OK. Let's go and get a drink and we'll work things out.

Narrator
安娜,Tom 这次可能没说错。先休息一下吧,感受一下法国风情。你们今天表现都很不错,不过别忘了通知你们的老板 Paul 发生了些什么事情。Keep him in the picture.

Anna
In the picture? I didn't take any photos.

Narrator
No, Anna! 没让你给 Paul 照相。我的意思是你得让他知道工作进展情况。毕竟他可是老板啊。

Anna
OK. I will.

Tom
Yeah, this one looks quite cosy. I'll order us a beer, shall I?

Anna
I'd prefer an orange juice, please.

Tom
Oh really? OK then. Err, Garcon. Je m’appelle un beer et citron juice thing. Au revoir!

Anna
No, Tom! Pardon, je voudrais une grande biere et du juice d’orange s’il vous plait.

Waiter
Oui Madame.

Tom
Well, she likes you! Well, actually everyone likes you, Anna. I like you because…

Anna
I like you too, Tom. But don't you think I should call Paul and update him on what's going on… keep him in the picture?

Tom
I dunno. Let's just enjoy this moment, shall we? And besides, he'll be at his biscuit appreciation class by now.

Anna
No. I would be happier just to call him. Could I borrow your mobile phone, please? My battery has run out.

Tom
Yeah sure. You'll find his number under Attila the Hun.

Anna
Attila the Hun?

Tom
Just my little joke!

Anna
Cheeky! But hold on… What am I going to say to him?

Narrator
千万别乱起外号!想好了再给他打电话。首先通报一下好消息,你们谈判成功,合约也签好了。It's good news. I have closed the deal and the contract is signed.

接下来我们需要尽快把订单做好。We need to proceed with the order as quickly as possible.

还有,我有决心一定要准时把订单送到客户那里。I’m committed to getting the order delivered in time.

不过需要公司的配合。I might need some help.

Anna
OK, I will. It's ringing…

Paul
Hello?

Anna
Hi Paul. It's Anna. I've got some good news!

Paul
Hold on. Sorry, I'm just munching some new crumbly cream biscuits. Now, what's the good news? Is it about the contract?

Anna
Yes! I've closed the deal with Fruit Traders International and the contract is signed.

Paul
Excellent news.

Anna
To keep them happy, we need to proceed with the order as quickly as possible.

Paul
Of course, of course. So what are you planning to do?

Anna
Well, obviously, I'm committed to getting the order delivered on time, but I might need some help. I wonder if Tom could…

Paul
Yes, Tom can help you. Denise tells me you have a… special chemistry! Actually, where is Tom now? Is he home yet?

Anna
He's not. Actually Paul, Tom and I are going to stay in a hotel tonight. Hello, hello. Oh, I've lost the signal. He's gone.

Tom
Ah, never mind, Anna. I think he got the message. Another drink?

Narrator
希望 Paul 没听错安娜说的话!可别乱猜!不过 Anna 已经成功汇报了工作,让他知道工作进展情况。 好,让我们复习一下 Anna 用到的一些语言和表达 。

It's good news. I've closed the deal and the contract is signed.

We need to proceed with the order as quickly as possible.

I'm committed to getting the order delivered on time, but I will need some help.

Narrator
繁忙紧张的一天终于结束了,Anna 该准备睡觉了。

Tom
Ah… Right, well, it's time for bed. We've got an early start tomorrow.

Anna
So, where are we staying?

Tom
A lovely little boutique hotel, just round the corner. I've booked a room with a view.

Anna
A room? One room?!

Tom
Err, yeah. That's all they had, actually… honest!

Narrator
Hmm. 这很有意思。希望他俩公事公办,保持同事关系哟!我们下期节目再见。
