千万别学英语高级篇第22课

Steve: Wow, this is a really expensive place.Are you sure you want to eat here?

Why don't we just go get a couple of sandwiches?

James: Don't worry about that.

The waitress greets them.

Waitress: Good afternoon. How many people today?

James: Just the two of us.

Waitress: Would you like a booth?

James: That will be fine, thank you.

Waitress: All right, follow me please.

James and Steve are seated.

Waitress: Here is our lunch menu with the specials listed on the right.I would especially like to recommend the steak and lobster combination. The lobster is very fresh.

Steve: I think I will just have the soup and salad special, please.

James: What are you talking about?Why don't we both get the steak and lobster special? It sounds great.

Steve: But James, that will be a sixty dollar lunch bill.I know what your salary is and you can't afford lunches like this.

James: Don't worry about it. This goes on a company credit card.

Steve: But we don't have company credit cards.

James: As of today, I have one.

Steve: James! That mean that you got a promotion?

James: Let's order first, then I'll tell you all about it. Waitress, We'd like two of the steak and lobster specials.

Waitress: Yes, sir. And how would you like your steak?

James: Medium rare, please.

Waitress: And you, sir?

Steve: Make mine medium well, please.

Waitress: Fine. Anything to drink today?

James: Yes, I believe we will have two glasses of your best red wine.

Waitress: Very good. Will that be all?

James: Yes, Thank you.

Steve: Would you tell me what's going on? I'm dying of curiously.

James: I met Mr. Barnes this morning and we had a very interesting talk about the Wang account.

Steve: What did he say?

James: Well, first of all, you are looking at a new Executive Dire ector in charge of the Wang account development team.

Steve: Are you serious? Congratulations James, you really deserve it. Wow!An executive position, I can't believe it.

James: That's not all. Mr. Barnes thinks that what this account really needs is not only technical support but a new promotional strategy to emphasize the strengths of our software and Wang's operating systems.My new job is to put together and supervise team to continue technical development and support. In addition, as I just mentioned,the team will have to come up with a new and innovative marketing strategy for the product.

Steve: That all sounds great, James. I'm really happy for you.If I been just a little more of a team player, perhaps Mr. Barnes would promoted me to the team as well.I guess I really missed my chance yesterday.

James: Well, that is what I wanted to talk to you about over lunch today.Even though things didn't go that well for you yesterday, I understand why it happened.I know how much stress you've been under at work to bring in a big contract.

Steve: To be honest, I haven't been sleeping very well because of the stress.

James: Also, I remember how much you helped me when I first joined thecompany.That is why I want you to be my right hand man on the new team. Mr.Barnes authorized me to offer you the Assistant Executive Director's position.

Steve: You're not joking, are you? You are being serious with me?

James: I'm being totally serious.

Steve: I can't believe it. This is the chance I've been waiting for.But, I don't understand. Yesterday Mr. Barnes looked like he was ready to fire me. What changed his mind?

James: I don't think he was really that mad at you.But he did ask me who I wanted to be second hand command on my team and I said that I wanted you.

Steve: After yesterday you would still do this for me?

James: Like I said before, I understand why you acted the way you did yesterday. I also need your advertising expertise on the team.

Steve: I don't know what to say. This is the promotion I've been waiting for.

James: Congratulations, Steve.

Waitress brings the food and drinks.

Waitress: Here are your orders and your drinks. Enjoy your meal.

JamesSteve: Thank you.

Waitress: If there is anything else I can get you, please let me know.

James picks up his wine glass.

James: Let's make a toast to our new team.

Steve: Cheers!
