职场英文口语 第181期:如何领导他人(1)
Welcome back to English at Work.
Last time we heard Anna pitching her new plastic aubergine idea to Paul, in a lift.
上次我们听到安娜在电梯里向保罗推销她的新型塑料茄子的想法。He was on his way to a biscuit-lovers' convention and didn't have much time.
他正在去饼干爱好者大会的路上，所以没有什么时间。
She gave the perfect elevator pitch but it's down to Paul to give her idea the go ahead – the problem is, he seems to have gone missing.
她做了出色的“电梯推销”，轮到保罗给她指示了，但问题是他好像失踪了。Denise, isn't Paul supposed to be here today?
丹尼斯，保罗今天要来吗？Yes. He went to that biscuit-lovers' convention yesterday but he said he'd be back today.
是的，他昨天去了饼干爱好者大会，但他说今天回来。Maybe he's eloped with a pack of custard creams, eh? !
也许他和一盒奶油夹心饼干一起私奔了？！Very funny Tom.
很有趣，汤姆。I'll give him a call now …oh, that might be him.
我给他打个电话，可能是他打来的。Hello, Tip Top Trading… oh hello Paul, everything OK?
你好，Tip Top Trading，你好，保罗，一切都好吗？no! no!
不！What Denise?
怎么了，丹尼斯？What's he saying?
他说什么了？He choked on a biscuit at the convention and he's in hospital.
他在大会上被一块饼干掐住了，现在正在医院。Yes Paul, that was Tom… you want to speak to Anna?
是的，保罗，那是汤姆……你想跟安娜说话？
