对话

Lindsey: Good morning, Bob. I've booked the plane tickets to London. Here's the itinerary and your e-ticket.

Bob: Thank you, Lin. Could we check our travel schedule right now?

Lindsey: OK. No problem.

Bob: When will we arrive in London?

Lindsey: The flight is due in at 17:05. Someone from the conference committee will pick us up at the airport and take us to the hotel. Then we have a welcoming banquet at 19:00 in the same hotel.

Bob: Good. Could you give me the conference schedule, please?

Lindsey: I've just got the latest fax from the committee. The conference will open on July 19th and last four days, each day from 8:00 to 11:30 in the morning and 13:30 to 17:30 in the afternoon. And we're required to attend all the meetings.

Bob: Has the time for my report been fixed yet?

Lindsey: Yes. You'll give your report on the China Market Plan in the morning of the 21st, from 9:00 to 9:30, in Conference Room 7.

Bob: Um. They're not giving me much time to speak.

Lindsey: All but the keynote speeches are limited to 30 minutes. After the conference, we'll have a day off as the flight is not until late on 23rd. Perhaps we'll have time to take a city tour of London.

Bob: Oh, I'm sorry we won't. We'll have to make some changes. I've just had a call from Mr. Herman. He'd like us to visit our client, Miracle Trade, in Manchester as soon as the conference closes.

Lindsey: Oh, OK. I'll cancel the return flight and book tickets to Manchester right now.



林赛:早上好,鲍勃。我订好了前往伦敦的机票。这是行程单和电子机票。

鲍勃:谢谢你,林。现在我们可以过一下行程安排吗?

林赛:好的,没问题。

鲍勃:我们什么时候抵达伦敦?

林赛:航班将于17:05抵达。会议委员会会派人来接机并送我们去宾馆。然后,在同一家宾馆19:00会举行欢迎晚宴。

鲍勃:好的。你可以把会议日程告诉我吗?

林赛:我刚从委员会收到了最新的传真。会议将于7月19日开始,为期四天,每天的会议时间上午从8:00到11:30,下午从13:30到17:30。按要求我们要参加所有的会议。

鲍勃:我的报告时间确定了吗?

林赛:确定了。你将于21号上午9:00至9:30在第7会议室就中国市场计划作报告。

鲍勃:嗯,他们给我的时间有点不够。

林赛:除了主旨演讲以外,所有的演讲都被限制在30分钟以内。会议结束以后,我们有一天的休息时间,因为航班是在23号晚上。或许我们有时间游览伦敦。

鲍勃:哦,很抱歉我们没有时间。我们需要做一点调整。我刚接到赫尔曼先生的电话。他要我们会议一结束就去拜访我们在曼彻斯特的客户奇迹贸易公司。

林赛:哦,好的。我马上取消返程航班,然后预订去曼彻斯特的机票。
