提要与知识

(Fiona and Philip are colleagues at the same office. Fiona is more senior. They both often work cooperatively.)

场景:公司行政办公室                 人物:Fiona、Philip

 

Fiona: Philip, I need to subscribe a report to the head office, but some of the data is not very clear. Would you give me a hand?

Philip: Sure, what can I do for you?

Fiona: Can you double check this part for me on the computer?

Philip: OK. No problem. That’s it, right?

Fiona: No, not quite, if it isn’t too much bother, can you send a copy to everyone’s mailbox? Then we can go to lunch together.

Philip: OK, no problem.


Philip: Fiona, I have finished my work. Is there anything I can do for you?

Fiona: Oh, that’s very nice of you asking, but I think I can manage myself now.

Philip: Shall I print this for you?

Fiona: Well, no, no, thanks, because I haven’t quite finished it yet.

Philip: OK. If you like, I could type the report for you actually.

Fiona: Oh, thank you very much, but I think I’d prefer to do that myself because I can revise it while I’m typing.

Philip: Oh, yes, I know what I can do for you. I can get you a cup of tea.

Fiona: Oh, yes please, Philip. That’s really what I need now.

Philip: Here you are.

Fiona: Thank you.


Fiona: Philip, I am having my car fixed today and tomorrow. So…Can I use yours for tomorrow? Because you see, I need to pick up a friend at the airport tomorrow morning.

Philip: Sure.

Fiona: By the way, is it all right if I use it again for the weekend? I am going to take my parents for a picnic. Mine is too small.

Philip: This weekend? Sorry, I’m really sorry. I’m afraid not this weekend. Because my family is going to San Jose to visit my sister’s.

Fiona: Oh, that’s all right. It doesn’t matter. Thanks anyway.

Philip: Oh, Fiona, it reminds me. Do you think I could use your printer this afternoon? I have to send a project to the sales department.

Fiona: Of course, go ahead but make sure to switch it off when you leave.

Philip: Sure, thanks a lot.
