文字稿

Narrator
欢迎你回到 “白领英语” 续集。 Paul、Anna 和 Tom 现在正在参加一个非常重要的塑料产品国际会议。一天的关系网交流活动很紧张。 美国的大老板，Mr Socrates，向 Paul 透露了一些不太好的消息。不过他在宣布坏消息之前，大会即将公布一项重要的奖项 —— 年度塑料创新奖。得奖的会不会是 Tip Top 公司呢？Anna，你的受奖演说稿已经准备好了吗？

Anna
Yes, I’m just doing it now.

Narrator
这有点太晚了吗？

Anna
I’ve been so busy, and now I’m really struggling. I don’t know what to write.

Narrator
首先呢，你要说：“On behalf of everyone at Tip Top Trading, thank you for our award.” 我代表 Tip Top Trading 公司的全体员工感谢大家授予我们这个奖项。然后你可以说：“Our company is at the forefront of plastic innovation.” 我们公司始终站在塑料产品创新的前沿。然后你还可以告诉观众：“This award is a real boost for everyone working at the company.” 这项殊荣对公司的每一个人都是一个巨大的激励。只要你能记住这几句话，就不会有什么大问题。

Anna
…working at the company. Good, got it. Thanks. Oh hi, Tom. How have you got on?

Tom
Great, great. I've been hanging out with some of our clients – keeping them sweet, you know what I mean?

Anna
Err, I don’t actually know. But I’ve had some success. Oh, here comes Paul. Hi, Paul.

Paul
Oh hello. Having a good day?

Anna
Yes, we’re just talking about our success – let’s hope we win that Plastic Innovation of the Year award, eh?

Paul
Oh yes... let's hope so. Although that means I've got to read out that speech you wrote for me. Public speaking is not really one of my things.

Host
Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats for our special award ceremony.

Anna
OK, here’s your speech, Paul.

Tom
We’ve got to win first.

Anna
Shhh shhh. Listen!

Host
Thank you everyone for attending this year’s conference. As you know, the highlight of the day is announcing the winner of our Plastic Innovation Award. So, without further ado, let’s find out who this year’s winner is. It is… Tip Top Trading for their Imperial Lemon.

Tom
Hey, that’s us. We’ve actually won!

Paul
Oh crumbs. I suppose I'd better do my speech now.

Tom
Yeah, go on, Paul. You can do it!

Paul
OK, right. Whooah… ouch.

Anna
Oh no. Paul’s tripped over that chair!

Host
Is there anyone from Tip Top Trading here?

Tom
Anna, you’ll have to do the speech – you did write it after all.

Anna
What? Me? I can’t.

Tom
Go on. You’ll be fine, and besides I’m no good at public speaking.

Narrator
嘿，别紧张，安娜! 你首先要说：“Ladies and gentlemen.” —— 女士们，先生们。

Anna
Oh, if I have to. Erm… Ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of everyone at Tip Top Trading, thank you for our award. Our company is at the forefront of plastic innovation.

Tom
Yeah!

Anna
Erm… thanks, Tom. This award is a real boost for everyone working at the company. We pride ourselves on innovation, quality and err… plastic fruit. And coming soon, we'll be launching a new plastic aubergine.

Paul
Ow, my big toe!

Anna
So, thank you, everyone. This really means a lot to us.

Tom
Brilliant, Anna.

Paul
Yes, splendid. Well done, Anna.

Narrator
太棒了！安娜的演讲再次帮公司大忙。她听上去自信并对接受创新奖感到由衷地高兴。下面我们再回顾一下她使用的一个套语。

Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of everyone at Tip Top Trading, thank you for our award.
Our company is at the forefront of plastic innovation.
This award is a real boost for everyone working at the company.
This award really means a lot to us.

Anna
Are you OK now, Paul?

Paul
Yes, sorry. That was rather unfortunate, and a bit embarrassing too. But… hold on… what's happening now?

Host
Ladies and gentlemen, before you go, we have one more award to present.

Everyone
Oooh!

Host
We have a special award. Employee of the Year. This recognises someone’s achievements and contribution to the plastics industry.

Tom
Ah, at last, I’ve been recognised.

Host
Please welcome Brad Socrates from Tip Top Trading International to award the prize.

Mr Socrates
Out the way. Where’s th goddamn envelope? OK, right, and the award goes to… Anna from Tip Top Trading.

Anna
Me?! Bbbut I…

Paul
Go on, Anna. You deserve it. Go and make another speech!

Anna
Thank you, everyone. This is amazing!

Mr Socrates
This girl is amazing. In just one year she has risen from an apprentice to a champion. It's great to have her on board. I think we should talk about your salary later, hey?

Narrator
嗯，安娜今后的情况会好一些吗？我觉得没什么问题。欲知剧情发展，请留意我们下集的 “白领英语”。Bye.
