最近有什么新鮮事嗎？為什么會被開除

來聽今天的講解:

A:Hi,Henry,what's new?

嗨，亨利，有什么新鮮事嗎？

B:Where have you been?I've been trying to get in touch with you for two days.

你跑到哪里去了？我找了你兩天了。

A:I went to Salt Lake City on business.What's up?

我到鹽湖城出差了。什么事？

B:I got fired.

我被開除了。

A:How come?Last time I saw you,you told me it was a good job and you would like to take it as a career.That was only one month ago.Why this sudden change?

怎么會呢？上回我見到你的時候，你還說這份工作很好，你想以它作為事業(yè)呢。那才一個月前的事，怎么會突然改變了呢？

B:It's a long story.In a word,I didn't do a good job of it.I messed up a business deal.A deal that would have made ten million dollars and I messed it up.

說來話長?？偟囊痪湓挕Ｎ覜]把工作做好。我搞砸了一筆生意。一筆1000萬美元的生意，而我搞砸了。

A:What are you going to do now?

那你現(xiàn)在打算怎么辦？

B:I'm trying to find a job as soon as possible.Nancy doesn't know yet.I didn't tell her.I spent the last three days at the coffee shop next to your offiice.She thought I was going to work as usual.

我正在盡快找工作。南希還不知道。我沒告訴她。這三天我都耗在你們公司隔壁的咖啡館。她以為我還是像往常一樣去上班。

A:That's not the way to solve the problem.Did you look in the classified advertisements column?

這不是解決問題的辦法。你找過分類廣告欄嗎？

B:Yes,I did,but I'm not qualified for most of the jobs that I was interested in.

找過了，可是大部分我有興趣的工作，我都不夠資格。

A:Listen.I'll see what I can do,OK?You go home and tell Nancy about this problem you have now.She is your wife,and I'm sure she'll understand.

聽著，我會看看我能幫你做些什么好嗎？你回家把你現(xiàn)在的問題告訴南希。她是你的妻子，我相信她會理解的。

B:I just don't know how to bring it up...Well,all right.She has the right to know anyway.

我就是不知道該怎么跟她提這件事。好吧，她終究是有權(quán)利知道的。
