A: Hello, Bill Burton speaking. What can I do for you?

您好，我是比尔伯顿，您有事吗？

B: Hello, Mr Burton. This is Jenny Jenkins of Bradford and Sons returning your call. I'm sorry you missed me when you called my office this morning. My secretary said you called concerning our meeting next Tuesday?

您好，伯顿先生。我是布拉德福家庭公司的詹妮詹金斯，您给我打过电话，非常抱歉，您今天上午往我办公室打电话时我正好不在，我的秘书说您打电话问我们下周二见面的事是吗？

A: Yes, Ms Jenkins. Thank you for returning my call. I'm glad I finally get a hold of you. I wanted to let you know I would not be able to make our meeting next Tuesday. I will be out of town that day. Is there any possibility we can move the meeting to Monday?

是的，詹金斯小姐，谢谢您能给我回电话，很高兴我终于能联系到您了，我想告诉您，下周二我不能赴约，那天我出城去办事，有没有可能把见面时间改到周一？

B: I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm completely booked up on Monday. Would it be possible to postpone until you return?

对不起，恐怕我周一的日程已经满了，能否等您回来再说？

A: Oh dear, I was counting on taking care of our meeting before I leave. But I suppose I could shuffle a few things. Yes, we can arrange something. I'll be back Thursday morning. What about Thursday afternoon? Would that work for you?

噢，天啊，我原来打算在离开之前处理好见面之事，不过我想我可以重新安排一下，没错。我们可以安排一下，我周四上午才回来，那周四下午怎么样，这个时间你可以吗？

B: That should be fine, Shall we say about 2 o'clock?

应该没问题，我们定在两点可以吗？

A: Perfect. I'll look forward to seeing you at two o'clock next Thursday afternoon. If you need to change the time, please feel free to call me on my cell phone.

好极了，我盼着下周四下午两点与您见面，你如果要更改时间请随时打我手机联系。

B: Thanks Mr Burton, I'll see you on Thursday.

谢谢，伯顿先生，下周四见。
