Welcome back to English at Work.
It's the big day of the International Plastics Conference and a good opportunity for the staff at Tip Top Trading to promote its business.
這是國際塑料會議的大日子，也是Tip Top Trading員工推廣業務的好機會。But hold on, who's this? It's Mr Socrates, the big boss from America.
但等等，這是誰？這是蘇格拉底先生，從美國來的大老闆。
Hey, you guys, where have you been? Ah, Mr Socrates… nice to see you again.
嘿，你們去哪了？蘇格拉底先生，再次見到你很高興。I'd heard you were in town. Hello Mr Socrates. I've been looking for you everywhere.
我聽說你在鎮上。你好，蘇格拉底先生。我一直在到處找你。I need to catch up with you and see how business is going. Oh very, very well.
我得和你聊聊，看看生意進展的怎樣。很好。We're selling Imperial Lemons to France and Anna is developing plastic vegetables.
我們把皇家檸檬賣給了法國公司，而且安娜正在研發塑料蔬菜。Ah Anna! My favourite girl. Still doing a good job? I'm doing my best.
安娜，我最喜歡的女孩。仍然幹得不錯嗎？我盡力。In fact she's been doing my job for a few days… had a bit of a biscuit accident…
事實上，她擔任了幾天我的工作，我出了點餅乾意外……Yeah, well that's not hard for you, Paul.
是啊，這對你來說很正常，保羅。Listen, listen I need to talk you - shouldn't the others be doing some networking now?
聽着，我有事找你，其他人現在去搞一下聯誼怎麼樣？Of course, that's why we're here.
當然，我們就是爲這個來的。
