實景對話1

A：There are so many changes going on around here, it's hard to keep track of what's what！

B：What do you mean?I haven't heard of that many changes. The only thing I heard about was that there was a change about the time we are supposed to come to work. I saw the memo this morning.“As of November 25，2008，working hours for employees will be changed to begin at 9 am.”So much for sleeping in late！

A：Haven't you also heard about the new overtime pay polices, scheduled to begin from November 25th ?They say to contact Human Resources for more details. So it can't be good, or else they would have told us directly.

B：Why be so pessimistic.It might be good.

A：You're right. Change is good, sometimes.Especially the changes to management.

B：What changes to management?

A：You didn't see that memo?Here, let me read it to you.“Effective immediately, our new technology consultant is Brenda Lin. As of November 24，Wesley Williams will replace Martin Ma in charge of all Human Resources Department issues.”

B：Wow……maybe that's why there are so many changes—a new guy's making the policies.

A：And one more important one you should know about……Our office will be relocated to a new building, beginning from November 15th .

B：November 15th ?That's tomorrow！

A：Good thing I told you about it！

A：這里竟然有這么多的變動，很難讓人了解什么是什么？

B：你是什么意思？我沒有聽說有很多地更改。我唯一聽說的調(diào)整是我們的工作時間。我今天早上看備忘錄上寫著“從2008年11月25日起，員工的工作時間從早上9點開始”。再也不能睡懶覺了！

A：你沒有聽說有關(guān)新加班費政策將從11月25日起執(zhí)行的消息嗎？他們說詳情要和人力資源部聯(lián)絡(luò)。所以估計不是好消息，要不然他們就直接告訴我們了。

B：為什么那么悲觀？也許是好的呢。

A：你是對的，改變有時候也是好的。尤其是管理層的改變。

B：管理層有什么變動嗎？

A：你沒有看那個備忘錄嗎？在這兒，我讀給你聽聽：“從即日起，新的技術(shù)顧問為布倫達(dá)·林。從11月24日起，韋斯利·威廉斯將取代馬丁·馬負(fù)責(zé)人力資源部?！?

B：哇……也許正因為如此才有這么多的調(diào)整——新官上任三把火。

A：還有一件你應(yīng)該知道的非常重要的事是關(guān)于……從11月15日起，我們的辦公室將遷到新樓。

B：11月15日？那就是明天?。?

A：幸虧我告訴你了。

實景對話2

A：Can I have everyone's attention for a minute?I have some announcements to make.

B：I don't think they heard you, you need to speak a bit louder.

A：Hello！Everyone！Can I have your attention please?I have something to announce. The next staff meeting will be held on Wednesday, December 15th , at 10：00 am.

C：Wasn't it supposed to be held tomorrow afternoon?

A：Due to a scheduling conflict, the meeting was postponed and rescheduled. The meeting will feature three guest speakers.The meeting is mandatory for all staff.

（Collective groan）

A：Now, now. Please see the bulletin board in the employee lounge for a complete list of upcoming meetings. If you have any questions about the meeting agenda, please see me.

B：Anything else, boss?

A：Yes, one more thing. Here's some better news.We are pleased to announce that all employees will be given an extra two days of vacation.

We've decided to award holiday paid leave for all full-time employees.（Collective cheering）

A：And one more thing. Our holiday party will be held on December 20th from 5：00 to 8：00 pm at the Renata Hotel.

A：請各位注意一下，我有些事情要通知。

B：我想他們沒有聽見您說的話，您聲音再大點。

A：嗨！各位！請聽我說。我有些事情要宣布。下一次員工大會將于12月15日周三上午10點召開。

C：不是說明天下午召開嗎？

A：由于時間安排有沖突，推遲了這次會議，并重做安排了。該會議將有3位嘉賓出席，所有員工都必須出席。（埋怨聲）

A：現(xiàn)在，請參閱張貼在員工休息室公告欄中的那個臨近會議列表。對于會議的議程有什么問題，請來找我。

B：還有別的事情嗎，老板？

A：是的，還有一件事，是個比較好的消息。我們很高興地通知大家，所有員工將額外放假兩天。我們決定給所有全職員工帶薪休假的獎勵。（集體歡呼）

A：還有件事，我們的節(jié)日聚會將于12月20日下午5點到8點在雷納塔酒店舉行。
