(Sequence of cross-fades as the listener is taken around the office) 

Anna:   "Look forward to hearing from you soon. Kind regards, Anna." 

Denise:  (on the phone) ...And Margery said: 'I don't think I've ever seen a 

vegetable quite that size before...'  

Paul:   Where's that hole-punch?  

Narrator:   Ahhh, Tip Top 贸易公司今天的工作还是在按部就班的进行着。 

Tom:   Oh for goodness sake! What a disaster! I can't believe it! 

Narrator:   不过这儿怎么有一位看起来有些郁闷呢？ 

Tom:   Arrgh! 

Narrator:  Anna, 体现你助人为乐的机会来了，this is the moment to show that you are 

willing to help.  

Anna:   Yes! 

Narrator:  有好几个短语你都可以用， 

像我能帮忙做点什么吗？Is there anything I can do?  

让我帮帮你！Let me help.  

或者可以用相口语化的表达， 

比如说 can I give you a hand？ 

或者 give me a shout if you need anything!  

Ok? 

Anna:   Right. 

Narrator:  快去吧！ 

Anna:  Are you okay Tom? 

Tom:   (grumpily) No. 

Anna:   Is there anything I can do? 

Tom:   (grumpily) No. 

Anna:   Oh. What's wrong? 

Tom:   Everything. 

Anna:   I see. Can I give you a hand? 

Tom:   My computer has crashed. I've lost my phone. And there's a big, BIG 

problem with my timetable. I've got two meetings scheduled at the same 

time with two extremely important clients. I can't do them both at once! 

Anna:   Let me help. 

Tom:   Thanks Anna, but these are big, BIG clients. They need someone of 

experience. 

Anna:   Well, give me a shout if you need anything. 

Tom:     I can handle this, alright? 

Narrator:  'I can handle this'... 

  哎呀，这个傻瓜。不过 Anna, 你该说的话都说了，非常好。我想过会儿他肯定会改主

意的。 

Denise:  (in the background) Oh, I know, and the purple ones are so much more 

powerful... 

Tom:  Anna? Could you help me? 

Narrator:  Ha！你看，我说对了吧。 

Tom:   They've both arrived at once! Oh god! I'll deal with Mrs Kumquat... 

Anna:   Okay. 

Tom:   You talk to Mr Lime, he's from a company called Citrus Ventures. They own 

hundreds of juice bars.  

Denise:  Are you sure that's a good idea Tom?  

Tom:   I don't have much choice, do I? 

Denise:  Well I could- 

Tom:   Just keep him occupied Anna, tell him how great he is... no, no, tell him 

how great I am. And find out what he wants. If it's about the- no, never 

mind, just be nice. 

Anna:   Understood.  

Tom:   Mr Lime! Are you well? 

Mr Lime:  (restraining his anger) Yes, but I'm actually rather angry too. 

Tom:   Well, let me introduce you to Anna! 

Anna:   Mr Lime, it's a pleasure to meet you! Let me help with your coat. 

Mr Lime:  Oh er... Thank you. 

Anna:   Can I give you a hand with your scarf too, Mr Lime? 

Mr Lime:  Oh... Thanks. 

Anna:   Now, please come this way and you can tell me what's wrong. 

Narrator:  太棒了！还好你伸出了援助之手，又使用了恰当的短语表达。让我们再听一词： 

Is there anything I can do? 

Let me help. 

Can I give you a hand? 

Give me a shout if you need anything. 

Narrator:  但是 Mr Lime 看起来很生气。到底是怎么回事儿？Anna 能解决这个问题吗？希望可

别砸锅了！下期节目我们再继续。
