Mr Ballito 对Miss Melita Fagurian的面试非常满意，他还想了解一下Miss Melita Fagurian在以前公司的工作表现。因此他致电Mr Kola，Miss Melita Fagurian以前的上司，想要了解一些情况。下面是他们之间的对话。 OPERATOR: Good morning, this is the National Bank. Can I help you? MR BALLITO: Good morning, would you put me through to Mr Kola, please? OPERATOR: Mr Kola? Who's calling him, please? MR BALLITO: My name's Ballito. I'm Managing Director of Modern Office Limited. OPERATOR: Hold the line, please, Mr Ballito. I'll see if Mr Kola's free. I'm putting you through to Mr Kola now. MR KOLA: Hello, Kola here. MR BALLITO: Oh, Ballito speaking. Mr Kola, you have a shorthand typist named Melita Fagurian on your staff. MR KOLA: Yes? MR BALLITO: Well, she's applied for a job here as Junior Secretary and we'd like to give it to her. Could you give her a reference? MR KOLA: Yes, it will be a pleasure. What would you like to know about her? MR BALLITO: How long has she been working at the Bank? MR KOLA: Oh, I'll have to look that up in her personal file. What else do you want to know? MR BALLITO: I'd like a report on her attendance and her punctuality. Tell me about her character and anything else you think I should know. MR KOLA: Well, Mr Ballito, as I said, I'll have to look all that up in her personal file. Do you want the reference in writing or can I ring you back in half an hour? |
