发布时间：2016-02-29 编辑：查字典英语网小编

　　陈豪是个勤快的年轻人，ABC美国公司的总裁很喜欢他，正在逐渐给他增加一些任务。陈豪也很机灵，凡是没有把握的事都去请教美籍华人Mary。

　　(Office ambience)

　　M：陈豪，你好像很激动，What happened?

　　C：啊呀，我们的总裁，Mr. Moore，让我明天请两位客户吃晚饭。我知道，我过去一直是当陪客的，never been a host。I dont even know what to do!

　　M：Dont worry。当主人主要是要保证晚餐进行得顺顺当当，让客人感到舒适满意。

　　C：可问题是怎么做。Tell me specifically what to do first。

　　M：First, of course, choose a restaurant，找个合适的饭馆呀!

　　C：哎，我们公司附近不是最近开了一个新饭馆吗? Ill take them there。

　　M：你呀，最好找一个你熟悉的饭馆，so you can be sure that the food and service will be good。

　　C：那倒是，否则太危险。I did hear that new restaurant is quite noisy。

　　M：太吵闹可不行，You need an atmosphere that is suitable for business conversation。

　　C：有了，我想起了一个非常合适的饭馆。 Mary, would you like to have lunch there with me today to check it out?

　　M：Thank you. Id love to be your guinea pig for lunch。我就做一回你的试验品吧!

　　C：Guinea pig! 请你吃饭还说做我的试验品!

　　C：So, Mary, what do you think? Will this work for the business dinner?

　　M：Its perfect。对了，既然你现在在这里，你可以认识一下那head waiter，把明天的帐先付了，take care of the bill for tomorrow night。

　　C：饭还没有吃，吃什么都还不知道，就付钱?

　　M：没有关系的。你先把信用卡给他，让他印一份，告诉他你要给多少小费，然后签个字，让他们把账单的副本寄给你。

　　C：But isnt it risky to give someone your credit card?

　　M：像样的饭馆都有信誉，so its not risky and its done all the time。要是你不想先付帐的话，那你当天就先告诉服务员吃完饭后把账单交给你。That will eliminate any confusion over who is paying.

　　C：Thats a very good idea。对了，Mary，既然我们在这里，那我就先定一个比较安静，景色比较好的桌子吧。

　　M：A wonder idea to request a specific table for tomorrow.

　　C：Mary，Thank you so much.

　　M：Youre welcome. Next time youll know that as a host, its your responsibility to choose an appropriate restaurant, taking care as much as possible ahead of time such as arranging for how to pay the bill and requesting a nice table. Then it will be an enjoyable evening for all.
