原汁原味商务英语播客 第29课:报告项目的最新进展

In today’s intermediate Business English Podcast episode you’ll practice reporting on progress. That means informing your boss or colleagues about your current work. This is also called updating someone on the status of a project.
在今天的商务播客中，你会练习如何报告进程。这意味着要告诉你的老板或同事你目前的工作。
这也叫做补充项目的最新信息。

Reporting on progress happens in formal settings, such as at meetings, but often also in informal settings, such as around the water cooler or maybe even over a drink after work.
汇报进程常在正式的场合，比如会议，但是在非正式的场合，比如在工作后小酌或喝水的时候。

Today’s listening provides an example of this very common kind of informal project update. It takes place in the offices of AirMech Services, a company that specializes in the maintenance, repair and modification of Passenger Loading Bridges, which are commonly called “jetways”. You’ll hear Rudi, a project manager, update his boss, Wolfgang, on the status of one such project. They meet each other during a break in the coffee room.
今天的听力提供的是在非正式项目的信息补充。今天的会话发生在AirMech Services的办公室，一家专业维修和安装乘客登机桥的工作，也叫做“登机桥”。你会听到项目工程师Rudi向老板Wolfgang汇报项目的进程。他们在休息中的咖啡厅遇见。

As you listen, pay attention to both the vocabulary and the verb tenses Rudi and Wolfgang use to discuss the progress of the project.
听录音的时候，要注意 Rudi 和 Wolfgang 用来讨论项目进展的词汇和动词时态。
