Version 1 情景1

PETER: That's been a tremendous help, Jens. Really helped clarify things. We'll ①get these proposals off to the agency, see what they have to say about it. Could you help with that, Maria?

MARIA: Certainly.

PETER: Paula will show you how. Now, I must rush. I've got another meeting.

JENS: (to Maria) Promotion!

PETER: Oh, my wife wondered if you'd both like to ②pop round one night this week. Shall we say tomorrow evening? Yes?

JENS: Yes...

PETER: (to Maria) Yes?

MARIA: Um... yes... tomorrow evening?

PETER: If that's all right with you. Right, I must rush. See you later.

MARIA: What does he mean, 'pop round'?

JENS: Probably tea. You know how the English love to 'pop round' for tea. I'm only joking. I suppose it means dinner.

MARIA: What time do you think?

JENS: I don't know. Eight o'clock? Looks like we've been honored. I wonder whether we should take a gift?

彼得: 颜斯，这对我们的帮助实在太大了，让我们弄清楚了整件事情。把提案发给代理商吧，听听他们的意见。玛丽亚，你能帮助我处理这件事吗？

玛丽亚: 可以。

彼得: 波拉会告诉你如何做的。现在，我必须得走了，我有另外一个会要参加。
