A: Mr. Emory? I think it’s time to get a new computer.

B: Why, Christine? I think the one we have is fine.

A: For the amount of work we do on the computer these days, the one we’re using is just too weak. We really need a higher model.

B: Well, I’ll think about it. I don’t know whether accounting is going to agree to such a big purchase.

買新電腦

A：埃莫里先生，我覺得該買臺新電腦了。

B：怎么了？克莉絲汀。我想現在這臺還可以嘛。

A：對于我們現在所做的工作，我們用的這臺電腦太慢了。我們的確需要一臺一些的了。

B：好吧，我考慮一下。我不知道財務部門是否會同意這么大一筆開銷。

Clarifying final details

A: This is what my boss is expecting, Sandy. He wants a detailed list of expenses and equipment costs.

B: That’s going to take a while to put together, Paul.

A: The sooner, the better, Sandy. I don’t think he’ll sign anything till he’s got that in his hands.

B: I’ll get to work on it right away. Anything else?

確定ABC后細節

A：這是我老板想的，仙蒂。他想要一份詳細的費用及設備成本清單。

B：把這些都做出來得費些時間，保羅。

A：越快越好，仙蒂。我想不拿到這個他是不會在任何東西上簽字的。

B：我現在就去做。還有別的什么嗎？
