A: Hi, Kim. How’s it going? I’ve got a problem.
嗨，金姆。进展如何？我遇到了点麻烦。
B: What’s bothering you Stone? You look stressed.
斯通，是什么事让你心烦？你看上去心事重重的。
A: I always bite off more than I can chew. I agreed to speak at an international conference in Shanghai next Monday. Now I won’t be able to do it.
我总是试图做自己做不来的事。我答应下星期一在上海的一个国际性大会上讲话。现在没法去了。
B: Why not? What happened?
为什么呢？怎么回事呀？
A: I’m going to Beijing that day. I have an important speech and TV interview there. I forgot all about it. I don’t have the heart to tell the conference now. It’s the second time I’ve done this. How can I save face? I feel terrible.
那天我刚好要去北京，我有一个非常重要的演讲和电视采访。我全给忘了。现在，我没有勇气告诉上海方面。这可是第二回了。我怎么才能挽回面子呢？我觉得糟透了。
B: Don’t worry about it. They’d have to search high and low to find a better speaker. And they know it. They need someone who can speak good English and Chinese.
别担心，他们会到别处去找个更好的演讲者。而且他们也会理解的。他们需要一个能说一口流利的英语和汉语的人。
A: Thank you. But I doubt that. I’m sure they’d prefer someone who keeps his word. I’ve got to talk to my assistant. He’s always messing up my schedule!
谢谢。但我对此表示怀疑。我想他们宁愿要一个守信用的人。我要找我的助手谈谈。他总是把我的计划打乱！
B: Forget it. They know you’re not leading them on. They’ll ask you again, I’m sure. These things happen. You’re a busy guy.
得了吧。他们知道你不是骗他们的。我确信他们还会再请你的。这种事常有，你也很忙。
A: Thanks for saying that, Kim. I feel a lot better.
金姆，谢谢你这么说。我觉得好多了。
B: That’s what friends are for. Besides, I’m sure it’s not easy being so famous!
这是朋友之间应该做的。再说，名人也不是好当的！ 返回搜狐，查看更多
