Catherine�此�Sure。 Do you want another bagel or some fruit��
James�此�No�察�thanks。 I'm just not that hungry in the morning。 You know that。

James�此�Please。
Attendant�此�You know�察�you could really use a new set of tires。 The ones you have are badlyworn。 I could do that for you right now�察�it wouldn't take more than thirty minutes。
James�此�And the price��
Attendant�此�Well。。。 that depends on how good a set of tires you want。
James�此�No。 I'm late for work anyway。 I'll just take the gas and oil today。 How much willthat be��

Steve�此�Good morning�察�James。 You're early。 What's up��
James�此�Morning�察�Steve。 Early is right。 I've got two important meetings today�察�one with theboss and one with a client。 You're pretty early yourself�察�something important��
Steve�此�Yeah�察�I'm meeting a client�察 �too。 Someone from a big puter pany。 I thinktheir headquarters are in Taiwan�察�but this guy runs the New York office。
James�此 �Wang puters。 That's my client�察 �too。 But I think the owner is aChinese´American�察 �I'm not sure if they even have an office in TaiWan。 I guess we'reworking on this account together。
Steve�此�Good。 To tell you the truth / I was a little scared。 The account is really big�察�it's justtoo much work for one man。 Say�察�what time do you meet with the boss�察�Mr。 Barnes��
James�此�Ten´thirty�察�Why��
Steve�此�I was right。 We are on this account together。 I'm scheduled to meet with Mr。 Barnesat ten´thirty�察�too。
James�此�Well then�察�partner�察�let's get busy preparing something for the meeting。
Steve�此�Good idea。 Where should we begin��
James�此�I don't know about you / but I always begin big projects by going to the bathroom��and then with a hot cup of coffee。 Can you wait for me��
Steve�此�Just hurry。 I'll get the coffee ready。
James�此�That sounds like an excellent plan。
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 6 Planning for the Meeting
James�此�I'm back。
Steve�此�Here is your coffee。 You feeling better��
James�此�I feel like a Champ。 Where should we begin��
Steve�此 �As always�察 �it's best to begin at the beginning。 What have you prepared for yourmeeting with Wang��
James�此�Basically�察�I just have an outline of a presentation of our pany's new software。 Ithink our product is high quality and that the people from Wang will realize that once theyhear a description of it。
Steve�此�Well James�察�that is a little too simple。 We know the product is good�察�but we have to
convince them of that too。 Luckily�察�I put together a vedio presentation on my notebookputer using our software。 If they like the presentation�察�and I am confident they will��then that automatically means that they like our pany's product。
James�此�Steve�察�that's why you are at the top of sales。 You think of everything in advance。I'm really just a puter software engineer�察�I can make this stuff but I can't sell it。
Steve�此�Of course you can't。 That's why Mr。 Barnes put us together。 I'll take care of sellingthe software�察�and you can answer any tough technical question that the people from Wangmight ask。 I'm as bad at science as you are at sales。
James�此�Steve�察�you're too modest。 You're great at sales�察�but I know you know somethingabout puters too。 I still remember when we first started working here�察�you taught mea thing or two about Apple Macintosh puters。
Steve�此�Sure I know about Macs�察�but that's just because I used one all through college。 Plus��any dummy can use a Mac。
James�此�I couldn't。
Steve�此�Not at first。 But after about three days�察�you were already better than me。
James�此�Okay�察�okay。 So I'm a puter nerd。~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 7 The Secretary
Steve�此�I'll call my secretary and have her make copies of your outline。
James�此�Are you sure that's okay�拭�I mean�察�she doesn't really work for me。 What if she getsangry。
Steve�此�No problem。 She works for me�察�and you and I are working on this project together。Watch and learn。 ��Steve picks up the phone。�� Lisa�察�could you e in here please��
Lisa�此�I can but I won't。 It's only eight fifty´five and I don't start work until nine o'clock。
James�此�Well�察�Steve�察�I guess she knows who's the boss。
Steve�此�Very funny。 We'll just have to wait for five minutes�察�That's all。
James�此�Whatever you say。
��At two minutes after nine o'clock。��
Steve�此�Lisa�察�do you think you could e in here now��
Lisa�此�Of course�察�Mr。 Dawson�察�I'll be right in。 ��Lisa es into the office。�� What do youneed�察�sir��
Steve�此�Could you make Mr。 Goddard here about twenty copies of his outline。
Lisa�此�Why�察�doesn't he have a secretary��
Steve�此。�A little angry。�� Of course he does�察�but we're working on a project together and Iwould really appreciate it if you would just cooperate with me right now。
Lisa�此�All right�察�all right。 You don't have to get mad。 Did you say ten or twenty copies��
James�此�Actually�察�ten will be fine。 It's a small group today。
Steve�此�But I said twenty�察�so make it twenty。
Lisa�此�Yes�察�sir�察�Mr。 Dawson。~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 8 Meeting the Boss
��Mr。 Barnes calls Steve on the intraoffice phone��
Mr。 Barnes�此�Dawson��
Steve�此�Yes�察�this is he。
Mr。 Barnes�此�Contact Goddard and e up to my office immediately。 I want to ��wanna��go over today's meeting in advance。
Steve�此�Mr。 Goddard is with me now�察�we'll e up right away。 ��Steve to James。�� Well��that was the old man�察 �It's show time。 And he sounds a little nervous�察 �which means wehave to be even more careful。
James�此�I'll be extremely careful。 I just don't want him to yell at me again。 I'm an engineer��not a secretary。
Steve�此�Be careful。 Lisa might hear you。 Anyway�察�let's go。
��Steve and James go up to Mr。 Barnes' office and his secretary sends them in。 They knockon the door。��
Mr。 Barnes�此�e in。
James�此�Good morning�察�sir。
Steve�此�Good morning�察�Mr。 Barnes。 How are you��
Mr。 Barnes�此�I'll be a lot better after this meeting is over。 I hope you two have done yourhomework / because this is a huge deal。 If we can convince Wang / about our pany /then larger puter firms will follow。 I don't have to tell either of you that could meanmillions of dollars。 I'm counting on you。
Steve�此�Don't worry�察�Mr。 Barnes。 Sir�察�you can depend on us。 Isn't that ��Is not�А�right�察�James��
James�此�Yes�察�I think�察�I mean of course you can。
Mr。 Barnes�此�I had better be able to。 And if you two do / a good job�察�I won't forget it whenit es time for promotions either。 I put you on this assignm
