金融 英语 口语之 外贸 关于索赔的英语对话
伦敦一家进口行的代表约琴夫-帕麦先生正在访问中国,自几天前他抵达广州,他就一直参加广州交易会。他受伦敦总公司的指示,要和中国 外贸公司 广州分公司的唐同志联系,商谈索赔案件。唐是代表上海分公司处理这一案件的。
Palmer: Hello, Mr Tang, how are you? It is nice to meet you again.
帕:唐先生,你好。又见到你感到舒畅。
Tang: How are you, Mr Palmer. It's really a pleasure to see you here again. I do hope you have had a very enjoyable trip from London.
唐:帕麦先生,你好。在这儿又见到你,真实荣幸。你从伦敦回来,希望你这次旅途快乐。
Palmer: I must confess that the air trip is really a long one. But, you see, the air-lines are very comforable so that one does not feel tired at all the end of the journey.
帕:我该承认这次乘飞机航程够长的了。但是你明白,客机特别恬静,到终点时一点不感到劳累。
Tang: Glad you have had a pleasant trip. I have to doubt you are comfortably settled and find things at the hotel satisfactory.
唐:你旅途舒畅我也快乐。想必你已安顿下来,旅馆装备都还满意。
Palmer: Everything is perfect, thank you. Well, now, Mr Tang, if you don't mind. I'll talk shop with you directly.
帕:谢谢你,一切都美满。噢,唐先生,如果你不介意的话,现在咱们直截了当谈谈业务吧。
Tang: Perfectly all right with me. In fact, we'd better talk over our business first and then have a chat afterwards. You wish to take up the subject of the Arbutus, don't you?
