地道美語(yǔ)聽力播客:Preparing for a Video Conference

Emiliano: I’m not sure about this video conference today. It’s the next best thing to having a meeting face-to- face , but I’ve never used most of this equipment before.
Fatima: It’s a piece of cake . Do you want to do a run-through with me?
Emiliano: Do you mind? I’d really like to make sure that I know how to work this webcam andmicrophone .
Fatima: I don’t mind at all. Okay, we have Internet connectivity , so streaming won’t be a problem. The speakers on both computers are turned up .
Emiliano: Do you know how to adjust this webcam? Right now, it’s focused on my right ear!
Fatima: That’s easy. Just use these buttons to zoom in or out, and you can tilt up or down.
Emiliano: Oh, I see. That’s better. Now you can see my entire face. Are you getting audio on your side?
Fatima: Yes, you’re coming in loud and clear . I think we’re in business .
Emiliano: Well, that wasn’t so hard. Let’s hope it goes this smoothly this afternoon.
Fatima: If you have a problem, just give me a call.
Emiliano: Thanks. I really appreciate it!
