接機前的準備Sun: Brian, Mr. Mitchell will be arriving in Taiwan for the first time this morning. I’d like you to pick him up and help him get settled in. (Brian, Mitchell先生會在今天早上到台灣，他是第一次來，我希望你去接他，順便幫他安頓好。) Brian: Can do, Mr. Sun. Which hotel is he booked at? (沒問題，孫先生。他訂那一家旅館？) S: Howard Plaza. Everything’s been arranged, under his name. (福華飯店，一切都以他的名字安排好了。) B: I’d better go to the airport not. Shall I take one of the company cars? (我最好現在就去機場。我開公司的車嗎？) S: No. Because we’re negotiating such a large purchase from Northern Reflections, it’s in our best interest to show him around in style. We’ve rented a limo. (不。既然要和Northern Reflections談這麼大筆買賣，風風光光地帶他逛逛，會對我們有好處。我們租了一輛豪華轎車。) B: Good idea. I’d better be on my way. (好主意。我最好上路了。) S: Brian, do you have a jacket and tie at the office today? (Brian, 你今天西裝和領帶有沒有放在辦公室？) B: Yes. Why do you ask? (有啊，有什麼事嗎？) S: I know it’s very humid, and the dress code is pretty casual here. But I think it’s important to look professional when a client is visiting. (我知道天氣溼溼黏黏的，而且公司對穿著一向不太要求。但我想有客戶來的時候，還是得穿得正式。) B: I understand. I’ll have my suit jacket and tie on when I meet Mr. Mitchell. (我了解，接Mitchell先生時我會把外套穿上，領帶打好。) S: Fine. And I think it would be proper if you leave your jacket on, unless Mr. Mitchell takes his off first, or mentions how hot it is. (很好，我想除非Mitchell先生先把外套脫掉或喊熱，不然你還是穿著外套好了。) B: I follow you. Then I can suggest that he take off his jacket, then follow suit. (我懂，所以我會建議他脫外套，之後再跟進。) S: Yes. It’s important that we pay attention to detail. Mr. Mitchell will be arriving on flight HK 211, from Hong Kong, at 11:20. (好。對小節也不能馬虎，這是很要緊的。Mitchell先生由香港搭HK 211班機，會在11點20分到。) B: Will he visit our office today? (他今天準備來公司嗎？) S: He’ll probably have jet lag, so nothing’s scheduled today. (他可能還沒適應時差，所以今天沒有排定任何節目。) B: I’ll take him right to the hotel then, so he can get some shuteye. (那我直接帶他去飯店，讓他睡一會兒。) S: Good. And please remind him that dinner is optional tonight, if he’s not too tired. Otherwise, we have a meeting scheduled for 10 a.m. tomorrow morning. (很好，請提醒他要是不太累的話，可以一起吃晚餐。不然，就明天早上10點整會面。) B: We’ll pick him up in both cases? (不論一起吃飯或開會，都要去接他嗎？) S: Right. (as Brian is leaving) And Brian, make sure your suit is conservative－nothing too loud, eh? (沒錯。（Brian正要離去）Brian，記得你的西裝款式要保守，別太花俏，嗯？)
