白領的一天 場景90:查信息 Checking information

Narrator: 歡迎回來！今天公司裏可發生了不少的事兒：因爲在送貨方面出現了幾個特別讓人難堪的低級錯誤，所以美國總公司要求這個月所有的訂單都得再過一遍。所以Paul和重要客戶在聯繫看是否都送對了貨。

Paul: I just want to check you're happy with the grapes?

Narrator: Tom, 就是他惹的禍，現在他正在和客戶確認所有訂單信息都是準確的。

Tom: Ya, yah, I just want to make absolutely sure we get the order right for you and have the correct number of fruit...

Narrator: Denise 還在電話上聊天呢。

Denise: Brown shoes don't look right on him! He's not a brown shoe sort of person...

Narrator: Anna 被派到存貨的倉庫。Anna, you are looking worried.

Anna: I have to speak to Mr Ingle. Apparently he's not very friendly! He might not like me asking lots of questions!

Narrator: Well, be polite, and start your sentences with things like:

I just want to make sure that... 我想確認一下…

Could you possibly clarify... 您能再說清楚一些嗎…

I just want to check... 我想查一下…

Just to be absolutely clear... 就想百分百的確認一下…

One thing I wasn't sure of was... 我有一點不太確認的就是…

Narrator: Good luck!

Anna: Mr Ingle, I don't think we've met yet, I'm Anna.

Ingle: Hello. Oi! What are you doing with those boxes? I told you to put them in storage. Anna, is it?

Anna: Yes, sorry to bother you, I just want to check something. We've had a few problems with orders….

Ingle: Well, that's not my fault. I do exactly what I'm asked to do. (To workers) No, not there, in storage!

Anna: Oh, well, I just want to make sure that….

Ingle: Thirty years I've been doing this job, and I've never made a mistake.

Anna: Of course, but because we've had problems, we need to make absolutely sure that all deliveries are correct.

Ingle: Humph.

Anna: Could you possibly clarify what went out in today's delivery to Mr Berry of, er, Bluetree Enterprise?

Ingle: 500 redcurrants.

Anna: Right. That's fine.

Narrator: Well done Anna, 看這不是很順利嗎， 別忘了還有一個短語可以用 – I just want to check…

Anna: OK. Now, I just want to check what was sent to Cocoline Ltd – it should have been fifteen mangos –

Ingle: That's right.

Anna: Great, and just to be absolutely clear, you sent the soft mangos, not the plastic ones?

Ingle: Yes, just like I was told to.

Anna: Good. One thing I wasn't sure of was whether we had enough yellow bananas in stock – I know there are some purple ones, but-

Ingle: We do need more yellow bananas.

Anna: Okay, I'll just write that down. Thank you Mr Ingle. By the way, I like your overall!

Ingle: Oh thanks.

Narrator: 他好像是不太友善，不過Anna 還是完成了她的任務， 以下是她用到的一些短語：

I just want to make sure that...

Could you possibly clarify...

I just want to check...

Just to be absolutely clear...

One thing I wasn't sure of was...

還好，所有存貨看着都還好。可是在辦公室了，Tom 的情況不妙啊。

Tom: (on the phone) Really? Here it says 5,000 not five... oh...
