社交生活篇:找物业(5)(在线收听) |
A: This is Janet Smith in apartment 23. Can I speak to the apartment manager? B: Hi. How can I help you today? A: Well, my window facing the empty lot is broken. B: Oh, that's not good. What happened? A: I dont know. I wasn't home when it happened. B: Do you have any clue who might have done this? A: I have a feeling that it might have been the neighborhood kids. B: Why, what leads you to that suspicion? A: Well, next to the broken glass was a baseball. B: Well, a baseball is certainly solid evidence. A: I saw them playing just before I left my apartment. B: Well, did you recognize any of them? A: No, I just took a quick look. B: Well, it'll take a couple of days to repair it. A: A friend of mine is in the business. How about if I call him? B: That's okay by me. First, let me come see the damage. A: Come on over. So does my friend charge you or me? B: Since you didn't break it, you don't have to pay for it. A: That's a relief. I thought I was going to get stuck with the bill. B: If I knew which kid did it, I would bill his parents.
A:我是23号公寓的珍妮特·史密斯。我能和公寓经理说话吗? B:嗨。我今天能帮你什么忙? A:嗯,我面向空地的窗户坏了。 B:哦,那不好。怎么搞的? A:我不知道。事情发生时我不在家。 B:你知道是谁干的吗? A:我有一种感觉,可能是附近的孩子。 B:为什么,是什么让你产生这种怀疑? A:嗯,碎玻璃旁边是一个棒球。 B:嗯,棒球当然是确凿的证据。 A:就在我离开公寓之前,我看到他们在玩。 B:嗯,你认识他们中的任何一个吗? A:没有,我只是匆匆看了一眼。 B:嗯,需要几天才能修好。 A:我的一个朋友在做生意。我打电话给他怎么样? B:我没关系。首先,让我来看看损坏情况。 A:过来。那么我的朋友是向你收费还是向我收费? B:既然你没有弄坏它,你就不用付钱了。 A:这让我松了一口气。我以为我会被账单缠住。 B:如果我知道是哪个孩子干的,我会给他的父母开账单。 |
