【情景对话】

A: I’ve been waiting here in the conference room for ten minutes already. What time dose our meeting start? Where is everyone anyway?
A:我在会议室已经等了10分钟了.会议什么时候开始?其他人都在哪儿?

B: Didn't you hear about that? Our meeting was postponed until Friday.
B:你没听说吗?会议推到周五了.

A: What? The meeting was postponed? No one told me anything about it.
A:什么?会议推迟了?没有人告诉我啊.

B: Did you get the memo?
B:你没有看到备忘录吗?

A: What memo? There haven't been any memos this whole week, I check my in-box every day, and I haven't seen anything.
A:什么样的备忘录?整个这一周我也没见过什么备忘录。每天我都查看收文蓝,什么也没看见。

B: The memo ___①___ 3 days ago. It should have made it to your in-box, but maybe it __②__ in all the clutter on your desk.
B:备忘录是3天前发出去的,应该放进你的收文蓝了,但也可能夹在你办公桌上那堆乱七八糟的东西里面。

A: You know how things get piled up my desk when I am busy. I know that sometimes I do misplace things, but I always read all the memos that ___③___. They go directly to my in-box. Are you sure it was sent to whole office?
A:你也知道我忙时桌上的东西会堆成山—我也清楚有时我会把东西放错地方,但所有发下来的备忘录我都会看的。这些备忘录都会直接放进我的收文蓝。你肯定所有的办公室都发了吗?

B: It should have gone around to everybody. They also posted a copy of the memo in the break-room. Don't you ever look at the messages posted on the bulletin board?
B:应该发给所有人了。他们还在休息室贴了一张备忘录的复印件。你也没看到布告栏上贴的信息吗?

A: I'm usually too busy to take a bunch of coffee breaks and the gossip by the water cooler, Anyway, I'm sure the memo never got to my in-box. I'll have to talk to our secretary about it.
A:我总是忙的顾不上喝咖啡休息一下,或是水冷却器旁跟人闲聊。不管怎样,我肯定我的收文蓝里没有备忘录。我要去找秘书谈谈。

B:好吧。如果不读这些备忘录的话,你永远也不会知道自己还遗漏了什么信.
