3Renting a carC=customer A=agentC—Good morning. I’d like to rent a car.A—(Busy) Yes, just a minute pleas e…I’ll be right with you.A—What did you have in mind?C—Well, what I’d like to do is get a car here in phoenix, drive to the Grand Canyon and then on into new Mexico to see Santa Fe. Do you think I could drop it off there?A—I’m afraid that wouldn’t be possible because we don’t have an office in Santa Fe. C—That’s too bad! I was hoping I could fly back to New York from there. Well, what would you suggest, then?A—You could leave the car in Albuquerque where we do have an office.C—I suppose that’ll be all right. Could you tell me what the rates are? I’d want to keep the car for three or four days.A—Why don’t you have a look at this brochure. There are daily and weekly rates for each type of vehicle. At the moment, however, we’ve only got type C cars available. Everything else is reserved or out on the road.C—Oh dear, this is going to cost a fortune. Type C is the most expensive.A—You’d have to take type C anyway, because of the air-conditioning. You’d be crazy to go out into the desert without it.C—At this price we might just as well flyA—I see what you mean. And what’s more, you’ve got an extra charge for not returning the car where you picked it up. But at least by car, you get to see the country. You’d be better off with the 3-day package deal which includes unlimited mileage. But you’ll have to return the car here. The rates are on the back of the leaflet. You’ll notice that they’re much cheaper.C—This is more in my price range. As a matter of fact, it’s a real bargain. Why didn’t you mention it in the first place?4 Visiting friendsV=Vicki S=Steve P=PeteV—Hi, everyone. I’m glad you could make it.S—Hi, Vicki. This is my brother, Pete. He dropped by this afternoon, so I brought him along. I didn’t think you’d mind.V—Of course not. Hi, Pete. Nice to meet you. I’ve heard so much about you.P—Me too.V—Well, let’s not just stand here. Come on in and help yourselves to a drink. Then I’ll show you round the house.S—Vicki, you’ve really done wonders with this place. How long have you been here now? V—Almost a year. We moved in last fall and have been working on fixing it up ever since. Come have a look at the den.P—Wow! Did you do the paneling yourselves or did you have it done.V—John and his brother did it in their spare time, believe it or not. They also made a rec-room downstairs, do you want to see the upstairs?P—Sure.V—Don’t mind the mess.V—I just can’t seem to get these kids to clean up their rooms anymore-or even to make their beds, for that matter.P—Well you know how kids are nowadays. Hey, is that solar heating?V—Yeah. We had it put in, as long as we were doing the rooms over.P—You must save a lot on the heating.V—You can say that again! Well, we’d better get back to the guests. I hope everyone enjoying themselves.P—Sure sounds like it.V—Let’s go down to the kitchen and out the back door.P—My goodness! What on earth is that?V—That’s our micro-wave oven. We just got it. You ought to get one.P—Oh, I think I could do without it, to tell you the truth. But what I’d really like is a cold drink and the sooner the better.。

Business English Negotiating (E-C)Market SurveyA: You’d like to get down the details which concern your particular product?B: Yes. What about electric motors and electronic control mechanisms?A: Most electronic control systems on the market are fairly simple. Yours is not. So we sent questionnaires to both manufacturers and users of electric vehicles. We asked them whether they would welcome your type of speed control and the increased mileage it would give.B: What were their reactions?A: Manufacturers are interested in technical improvement, of course. But the 20 we questioned would have to redesign their power systems if they were to buy the SCI or something like it. Now this would be costly, so that your device would be welcome only if they were able to offer a more attractive product for theircustomers to buy.B: Then how did the customers react?A: We question 320 users of electric vehicles. 128----that’s 40% ----replied to our questionnaires. Of these, 20% were satisfied with the performance of their existing vehicle. 25% felt that increased mileage was an advantage worth paying for. And 55% would welcome increased mileage but would not welcome any increase in cost in order to achieve it.B: Well, provided the market for the SCI was big enough, we could produce it relatively cheaply.A: Then I think it would be relevant to mention we also questioned some potential users of electric vehicles. Several of them would think of buying electric vehicles if they had increased range.B: Is this reported in the study?A: We’ve included some of the preliminary findings. We’ll have to give you the rest of the information as it comes in.Dialogue interpreting (C-E, E-C)Ceremonial SpeechE: China’s first manned space flight successfully circled the earth 14 times during its 21-hour trip.

Dialogue 2 Partial Shipment and Transshipment(The following is a conversation between the Mr. Gong(M), the clerk in an international logistics company and Mary(J), a customer of the company.)Maria：Speaking of your order, No 200, Miss , I’m afraid we can’t ship the whole lot at one time.Jane：Why? Is there anything wrong with my order?M：As far as your order is concerned, everything is all right. Only it’s difficult for us to get so many goods prepared within such a short period. J：What do you propose doing? You are not going to advise me to cancel the order, are you?v.提议，建议（propose的第三人称单数）；打算；提供（解释）；提出（行动，计划或供表决的方案等）M：No. I only propose that partial shipment (分批装运）be allowed. J：But our customers are in urgent need（迫切需要）of these goods. So it will be better to ship them all at once.M：Miss Jane, maybe you are not clear about my point yet. It is in your own interests that we put forward such a proposal. If partial shipment is allowed, instead of waiting for the whole lot to get ready, we can ship whatever is ready to meet the urgent need of your end-users.(最终用户）J：Oh, I see. In that case I agree to partial shipment. How do you want the goods divided?M：For those items that are small in size and light in weight, we sendthem via air freight.（航空货运费）It’ll be all right to ship other ordinary and large sized items by sea.prep.（表示方式）通过（某人），凭借（某种手段）；（表示关涉）经由，经过J：Please by all means guarantee （保证）the date of shipment so that we wouldn’t miss the sales season.M：We can assure （确保）you that the shipment of your order will be effected in June at the latest. There is no need to worry.J：By the way, we do hope you can make a direct shipment.M：We’ll do what we can. In case there is no direct shipment, will you consider allowing transshipment?J：I’m afraid not. You know, Mr.Maria , transshipment （中转）takes much more time. What’s more, there are risks of damage to the goods during transshipment. I hope you will try some other way.M：How about this then? I’ll contact the shipping company again and ask them to make delivery half a month in advance. This will ensure the consignment to reach your port in time for your customers’needs.J：That’s marvelous! Make delivery half a month in advance, and I’ll agree to your suggestion.（'mɑrvələs）。

Dialogue Script 2 对话原文 2Rob: So, I've been shocked by a lot of things since I came here.Tina: Like what? The holes in the roads?Rob: Of course. But I guess I also had different cultural expectations.Tina: Did you expect us all to be pious Buddhists?Rob: Not exactly. But I still don't really understand the religion here.Tina: You must know that in China, Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism are all blended. Rob: They all look indistinguishable now. I know the history, but I can't see it here.Tina: You've read Laozi and Zhuangzi?Rob: Of course. And I've done some Zen meditation.Tina: You probably know more about Eastern religion than I do, then.Rob: Well, I never had an altar in my house when I was growing up.Tina: I bet you didn't have a barbecue grill like this either. Are you Christian? Rob: Actually, my family is all atheist.Tina: Does that make you all the more curious about religion?Rob: You could say that. But I'm more interested in Taoist philosophy than religion.讲解：1. 对话中Rob和Tina还在继续聊天。
