Requesting a phone number
A: Could you call Mr. Jacob for me, Sara? I need to go over some stuff with him.
B: Of course, Mr. Roberts. But, could you tell me his extension number again? I haven’t got all the numbers down yet.
A: Sure, it’s 4-8-7-2. Don’t worry. You’re doing a fine job.
B: Thank you very much. Mr. Roberts.
询问电话号码
A:你能替我给杰可布先生打个电话吗,萨拉?我需要和他一起核对些东西。
B:当然,罗伯茨先生。您能再告诉我一遍他的分机号吗?我还没来得及把所有号码都记下来呢。
A:可以。4-8-7-2。别着急。你干得很好。
B:非常感谢,罗伯茨先生。
Re-writing
A: These two sections need to be re-written, Jerry. The last guy that did this really mixed things up.
B: Yeah, I could tell that. That’s no problem. I can probably get it re-done by tomorrow. When’s our meeting with the boss?
A: Not until next week, I think, the 15th.
B: Then, we’ve got plenty of time.
重写方案
A:这两部分需要重写,杰瑞。上次办事的那个家伙弄得乱七八糟的。
B:是的,我看得出来。这没问题。我可能明天就能把它重写完。我们什么时候见老板?

B:这么说我们还有的是时间。
