陈豪是个勤快的年轻人,ABC美国公司的总裁很喜欢他, 正在逐渐给他增加一些任务。陈豪也很机灵,凡是没有把握的事都去请教美籍华人Mary。 (Office ambience) M:陈豪,你好像很激动,What happened? C:啊呀,我们的总裁,Mr. Moore,让我明天请两位客户吃晚饭。我知道, 我过去一直是当陪客的,never been a host。I dont even know what to do! M:Dont worry。当主人主要是要保证晚餐进行得顺顺当当,让客人感到舒适满意。 C:可问题是怎么做。Tell me specifically what to do first。 M:First, of course, choose a restaurant, 找个合适的饭馆呀! C:哎,我们公司附近不是最近开了一个新饭馆吗? Ill take them there。 M:你呀,最好找一个你熟悉的饭馆,so you can be sure that the food and service will be good。 C:那倒是,否则太危险。I did hear that new restaurant is quite noisy。 M:太吵闹可不行,You need an atmosphere that is suitable for business conversation。 C:有了,我想起了一个非常合适的饭馆。 Mary, would you like to have lunch there with me today to check it out? M:Thank you. Id love to be your guinea pig for lunch。我就做一回你的试验品吧! |
