BBC白领英语04

Narrator: 欢迎回到 Tip Top 贸易公司。Anna 的工作面试被突然打断了。办公助理 Denise

慌慌张张的进来，不知道发生了什么事情。Anna 能不能提点建议，帮忙解决难题呢?

Denise: I don't know what to do!

Paul: So what's the matter Denise?

Denise: You know the Power['paʊər]Point presentation[ˌpriːzen'teɪʃn]?

Paul: The one we've been preparing for the last two months?

Denise: Yes.

Paul: The one that's very, very important and that we need this afternoon?

Denise: That one.

Paul: Aha.

Denise: We've lost everything!

Paul: No!

Denise: I had it on a USB stick[stɪk], to transfer it, but the stick has vanished['vænɪʃd]!

Narrator: Anna, 自我表现的机会来了。我教你几个词，你肯定能用到：

我能提个建议吗?Can I make a suggestion?

为什么不…? Why don't you?

你有没有试试…? Have you tried?

我们可以试试…? Maybe we could…?

那么这样可以吗?How about…?

我有个想法!I have an idea!

Paul: But don't you have it saved on your computer?

Denise: No, it was taking up a lot of space, so I deleted it.

Paul: So you have lost the only copy we have.

Denise: Yes.

Narrator: 太笨了吧!怎么这么没条理。Anna, 你得帮帮他们了。

Anna: Can I make a suggestion?

Paul: Yes, please do!

Anna: Why don't you try looking in your recycle[ˌriː'saɪkl] bin? – it might still be there.

Denise: I did. It isn't.

Anna: Have you tried asking your colleagues['kɑːliːɡ] if they've seen the memory stick?

Denise: I did. They haven't.

Anna: How about looking through your rubbish bin to see if you threw it away by

mistake?

Denise: (getting shirty) I don't do silly['sɪli] things like that!

Paul: All very sensible['sensəbl] suggestions Anna, thank you.

Anna: Maybe I could do a big office search for you? I'm good at finding things.

Denise: There are confidential[ˌkɑːnfɪ'denʃl] documents in this office – non-staff[stæf] are not allowed

to see them.

Paul: Now, now Denise. Why don't you drink up that nice tea?

Anna: I have an idea! Did you ever email the presentation to anyone?

Paul: Golly['ɡɒli] gosh[ɡɑːʃ], you did Denise! You emailed it to me to proofread['pruːfriːd]. It'll be in

my inbox somewhere. Good thinking Anna!

Denise: I was just about to suggest that myself actually.

Paul: Problem solved. Thank you Anna!

Anna: Pleasure.

Narrator: 好样的!Anna!

Paul: Right, now please leave us Denise. Anna and I will continue our interview.

Would you like a biscuit Anna?

Anna: Thank you. Oh, what's that?

Paul: Oh golly gosh, the USB stick! It was mixed[mɪkst] in with the plate of biscuits that

Denise brought in.

Anna: It's wet!

Paul: Yes, I think maybe I stirred my tea with it at one point. Oh well. Now,

where were we...?

My goodness, it's 11 o'clock! I have a meeting right now! I'm afraid I'm

going to have to go. But I've made up my mind about you anyway. I

suppose you'd like to know if you've got the job?

Anna: Yes please!

Narrator: 停下!大家肯定都迫不及待的想知道 Anna 的面试结果，不过先别着急，我们先把今

天她用到的短语再听一遍：

Can I make a suggestion?

Why don't you try looking in your recycle bin?

Have you tried asking your colleagues if they've seen the memory stick?

How about...?

Maybe I could do a big office search for you?

How about looking through your rubbish bin?

I have an idea!

Paul: Anna, we need someone who can think on her feet and who is a first-rate

people person. Someone who sees solutions, not problems... someone like

you! So if you want the job, it's yours!

Narrator: Ah, Anna 你可得想清楚了，真的要到这里来工作吗?他们看起来很混乱。

Anna: I would definitely['defɪnətli] like the job! Thank you!

Narrator: 那好，这可是你的决定哦!好了，下周我们再看 Anna 做为销售专员在 Tip Top 贸易

公司上班的第一天会是怎样的?
