Hello again and welcome to English at Work. The team at Tip(小费 v.给....小费) Top( 顶部) Trading has lots to do, but now Anna has discovered(发现) she has to organise( 组织) a launch(发射) party for the new plastic aubergine. It's taking place at the end of the week and nobody has organised a venue( 地点) yet( 到目前为止). I think Anna's going to need some help. So, Anna, I'm sorry Tom didn't tell you, but do you think you can turn something around by Friday? I'll try, but what do I need to do?
Oh, not much. Book a room somewhere( 在某处), send out some invites(邀请), arrange(安排) some food and drink, that sort(整理) of thing. That's all? You can do it. You're great at this kind of thing and get the team to help. Well, I'll give it a go(去).
See you later. Thanks Anna. Oh, and don't forget to order some of those posh Belgian chocolate biscuits((英)饼干). They always go down well with the clients([经] 客户). Oh dear Anna, it looks like you have your work cut out. Cut out?
I mean you have a difficult job to do, but as(当…的时候) Paul says, you can do it. Thanks. Are you okay Anna? You look a bit(一点) worried( 担心的). I am. You forgot to tell me about the product launch on Friday and now Paul wants me to organise it.
Did I? Oh, sorry. Look, if I can help in any way, just let me know. Well, you could book(预定) a venue( 地点) for the lunch. Ah(啊), yeah. Just remembered, I've got some imperial( 帝王的) lemons(柠檬) I need to send out.
Maybe later, yeah? How am I going to find(找到) a venue( 地点) for the launch(发射) at such short notice? You need to ask for recommendations(推荐). Search( 搜寻) on the internet or look in the phone directory( 姓名地址录) and then make a call. You need to say, could I check availability(有效(性)) for your venue( 地点) please(使高兴)? And then ask, what business facilities(设施) do you have?
And how many people can the room or venue hold(把握)?
