Our team is under a lot of pressure at the moment. I realize you have one team member on maternity leave. Yes, and another needs time off for a family emergency. Can you reassign some tasks for the time being? Yes, but to be honest, morale is low. Well, see what you can do and keep me updated.
老公,这些衣服都太好看了,我不知道该选哪个。 哎呀,你就随便选一个,我们已经逛了2个小时了。 我有选择恐惧症,那最好的办法就是这些都买了。 你别开玩笑!
We’ve just had our first baby. That’s fantastic! Congratulations! So, my wife is on maternity leave. Do you get any paternity leave? Yes, I get one week paid paternity leave. But I can take unpaid leave if I need more time.
你来了?全公司的电脑都黑屏了。 看来今天不用工作了,什么情况? 恐怕是中病毒了。 我们公司真倒霉 。
What are you reading? It’s a book about first aid. We should know how to help someone in a medical emergency. But I don’t even know how to put on a bandage. Me neither, and we don’t have a first aid kit at home. We should buy some band-aids and antiseptic cream.
又是周末,我们得去市场买点儿菜。 明天不用做菜了,咱们出去吃吧。 三顿饭都不做,可以吗? 可以。早上吃面包,中午去餐厅,晚上喝扎啤吃炸鸡。
Where’s John? He’s off sick. He’s still off? Yes. He’s on unpaid sick leave now. I hope he’s ok. Yes, it seems serious.
你快把自己的房间收拾一下,乱七八糟的这是家嘛! 习惯了,反正我自己一个人住。 那也是。家里很干净,每天到家你心情也会好些啊。 听起来你说得也对。
Are you going to the housewarming party this weekend? Yes, I’m looking forward to it. What are you going to get them? Well, I am going to get them something for the house! Maybe a house plant or some scented candles. Can we go in on it together? Sure. I’ll pop out at lunchtime to choose something. You can pay me back later.
