文字稿

Narrator
欢迎大家回到我们 “白领英语” 系列的第五十二集。今天的 Tip Top 贸易公司的气氛，嗯，不是很轻松。办公室助理 Denise 刚刚被裁员，今天是她在公司的最后一天了。Anna 正在忙她的工作。同时呢，还在招呼着每个人要在 Denise 的告别卡上签个名。

Anna
Paul, have you signed Denise's leaving card yet?

Paul
No, not yet. Have you got a pen? "Sorry to see you go. Best foot forward. Paul." There. I feel a bit guilty, it was me who got rid of her.

Tom
Yeah. Well, you should feel bad. I can't believe you're getting rid of her.

Anna
Tom, do you want to sign the card?

Tom
Yeah, of course. "You are… were… the best employee we ever had. So sad to see you go. Kiss, kiss, kiss. Tom."

Anna
Gosh. Three kisses! Mmm, you haven't given me any money for her leaving present yet, have you?

Tom
Ah, sorry. A bit of a cash flow problem… err, here, have a pound.

Paul
That's generous!

Paul
Oh crumbs, she's crying again. Anna, could you deal with her? I've got something important to do.

Tom
Oh yeah. Me too.

Anna
Denise, are you OK? Are you upset about leaving?

Denise
Yes. I've loved working here. I've made some good friends… like you Anna… Oh, and being able to make free phone calls has been good. What am I going to do now?

Narrator
哎，安娜，听上去Denise 急需一些求职的忠告和建议啊。

Anna
Career advice?

Narrator
她呢，需要一些具体的引导，看看下一步该怎么走，到哪里去寻找新工作。要换位思考，你会怎么做？

Anna
Look in the newspaper, ring my contacts, register with a job agency?

Narrator
没错！你肯定能给她指点指点。好，试试看。

Anna
OK, I'll try. Cheer up, Denise. You need to think positively.

Denise
Do I? I'm unemployed from tomorrow. How am I ever going to find another job?

Anna
Well, have you tried looking in the job section of the newspaper?

Denise
No.

Anna
It's a good place to start. And there are loads of job-finding websites you could sign up for.

Denise
I don't have a computer.

Anna
Well, what about ringing some of the people you know - contacts who may know about a job?

Denise
Hmm, I hadn't thought about that.

Anna
And, of course, you could register with a recruitment agency. They're good at finding jobs for you.

Denise
Oh, that's a good idea, Anna. You're brilliant! What great ideas… you're so kind and… thoughtful.

Paul
Anna, could you… oh no, she's crying again.

Tom
Oh no, shall we go back into your office, Paul?

Anna
No, no. It's OK. Denise is crying with happiness. She's feeling better now.

Paul
Oh well, in that case… shall we all gather round and officially say goodbye to Denise?

Narrator
哎呀，可怜的 Denise，眼睛都快哭肿了。不过 Anna 的职指点对她很有启发。没有专业咨询的情况下，就要自己去尝试。下面我们再听听Anna 给 Denise 提供的求职建议。

You need to think positively. 你要有积极的态度!
Try looking in the job section of the newspaper. 到报纸的招聘广告栏上看看。
There are loads of job-finding websites you could sign up for. 现在有很多求职网页，你可以去注册一下。
What about ringing some of the people you know? 可以给你认识的人打个电话。
You could register with a recruitment agency. 你也可以委托招聘代理公司。

Paul
OK, everyone. The time has come to say farewell to Denise. It's with regret that we've had to let her go.

Tom
We? You, Paul.

Paul
Thank you for all your hard work and we wish you very well in the future.

Paul
Anna, I think we have a gift for Denise?

Anna
There you go, Denise. Careful, it's quite heavy.

Denise
Oh, what a beautiful fruit bowl… and full of plastic fruit!

Tom
Oh, I’ll get it. Hello, Tip Top Trading. Tom's speaking. Yeah, yeah... oh right. Oh, brilliant. OK, ya, I'll let them know.Sorry about that, everyone. That was a company called Nice'n'Cheesy. They remember you, Anna. They liked your sales pitch and want to order a hundred thousand plastic grapes to go with their cheeses!

Paul
What?! Brilliant! Ooops.

Denise
My new fruit bowl!

Narrator
天哪，果盘被打碎了，可怜的 Denise。看上去她离开公司的时机很不好，不知道她还会不会回来？欲知剧情发展，请留意我们下一集的 “白领英语”。Bye!
