Calling a group meeting

　　A: All right. I want to bring everybody in on this project. When can we start working on this?

　　B: Well, we could probably get started with a strategy meeting tomorrow morning at 8:00.

　　A: I tell you what, 8:00 is no good for me, but why don’t you guys get started and I’ll come by at around 8:45 or so.

　　B: That’s fine with me. How much time are we going to have to work on this?

　　召集組織會(huì)議

　　A：這樣，我想請大家集中到這個(gè)項(xiàng)目來。我們什么時(shí)候可以著手這項(xiàng)工作呢?

　　B：嗯，我們也許可以明天早上8點(diǎn)先開一個(gè)戰(zhàn)略方針會(huì)議。

　　A：我得告訴你，8點(diǎn)對(duì)我不合適。但你們何不先把會(huì)開起來?我大約8:45左右過來。

　　B：我沒問題。這項(xiàng)工作我們打算要干多久?

　　Meeting a new boss

　　A: Good morning, Mr. Montgomery. I’ve been sent over from purchasing to fill in for Clare Williams.

　　B: Oh, really? Nice to meet you. I thought they were going to leave me here on my own! How long have you been with the company?

　　A: Oh, about seven years. Time flies, you know!

　　B: Does it ever! Well, let’s get started. If you could begin typing this letter now, I’ll see what else needs to be done.

　　約見新老板

　　A：早上好，蒙格瑪利先生。我是從采購部調(diào)來接替克萊爾·威謙姆斯的。

　　B：喔，是嗎?幸會(huì)。我以為他們要把我一個(gè)人扔在這兒呢。你來公司有幾年了?

　　A：哦，得有七年了。光陰似箭啊。

　　B：永遠(yuǎn)如此。好啦，我們開始吧。請你先打這封信，我來看看還有什么要做的。
