實用商務(wù)英語口語會話

　　商務(wù)英語是以適應(yīng)職場生活的語言要求為目的，內(nèi)容涉及到商務(wù)活動的方方面面。接下來小編為大家整理了實用商務(wù)英語口語會話，希望對你有幫助哦!

　　實用商務(wù)英語口語會話一：廚房禮節(jié)

　　(Office ambience)

　　M： Hey, Chen Hao, what happened?

　　C： Someone ate my lunch! 早上我買了一盒土豆沙拉放在冰箱里?，F(xiàn)在沒了!

　　M：Gone? Did you have your name on it?

　　C：Write your name on the box?是不是自己的飯還不知道呀?

　　M：外面買的飯，盒子看起來都差不多不少。If you don't have your name on it, 別人拿錯是很有可能的呀!

　　C：那倒是。不過，發(fā)生了今天的事, I don't think I'll ever forget to put my name on my lunch.

　　M：不過這冰箱確實是個大問題。 Sometimes people bring their lunch, and later decide to go out to eat and forget about their food in the frig until it starts to smell.

　　C：是呀，有兩次我看到有東西都發(fā)霉了。I just have to throw them out. 得了，別說了，真惡心。

　　I have to find some lunch.

　　M：See you later.

　　C：Hi, Mary, ready to go home? Can I walk with you?

　　M：Sure. By the way, did you find out who ate your lunch?

　　C：Oh, yes, I did. It was all a mistake. Brian太忙，讓W(xué)illiam給他帶個沙拉回來放在冰箱里。Brian 去冰箱拿沙拉的時候William還沒有回來。他以為我的沙拉就是William替他買的，所以就吃了。

　　M：原來如此。 But we do need to remind people to observe simple kitchen courtesies.

　　C：Simple kitchen courtesies? 廚房里還有禮貌呀?

　　M：當(dāng)然有呀!For example, if you drink the last cup of coffee, you should fix a new pot for others.

　　C：我同意。有兩次，我想喝咖啡，可是到了廚房看見的是空咖啡壺。I have to make a new pot and wait for a long time to get the coffee ready。

　　M： Also, it's just good manners to clean up after yourself such as wiping off the counter and throwing away the trash.

　　C：噢，擦桌面和扔垃圾!這我倒是沒有想到，因為在家里這些不是我媽，就是我姐姐做的。不過，Next time, I should pay more attention to it.

　　M：You also have to remember: keep the refrigerator clean -- put your name on your food and throw away any unwanted food; make a new pot of coffee when you drink the last cup. Throw away the trash, and clean the counter.

　　C：Thank you, Mary.

　　實用商務(wù)英語口語會話二：介紹順序

　　陳豪這個小伙子在ABC美國公司做得不錯。今天老板又給他一個重要的\任務(wù)。 是什么任務(wù)呢? 你聽聽就知道了。

　　(Office ambience)

　　C：Hi, Mary. Do you have a minute? I need your help.

　　M：Sure. What is it?

　　C：公司的部幾位高層領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人這星期從美國到這里來訪問。我的老板讓我今天晚上陪其中的一位，Mr. Johnson去參加我們客戶舉行的招待會。

　　M：Well, aren't you flattered that your boss asked you to do that?

　　C：Yes, I am. 不過，去招待會我就得把Mr. Johnson介紹給我們的客戶和在場的其他公司的同事。 I 'm not confident that I can do it correctly.

　　M：It's simple. You need to remember three rules. Rule #1: always introduce people of lesser rank to people of greater rank.

　　C：把級別低的人介紹給級別高的人。OK, rule #2。

　　M：Rule #2 is to say the name of the most important person first.

　　C：噢，先說最重要的人的名字。那Mr. Johnson今天就是最重要的人物了。

　　M：No, 在你把他介紹給我們客戶的時候，他就沒有客戶那么重要了。

　　C：那倒是。Without clients we would have no business。所以我得先說客戶的名字，再把Mr. Johnson介紹給他們。Mary, 讓我先回去練練。一會兒我再來找你。

　　M：No problem。

　　M：陳豪，你剛才急忙走了，我還沒說Rule #3呢!

　　C：Rule #3是什么呀?

　　M：在說了最重要的人的名字后，你該說：I would like to introduce so and so to you。

　　C：讓我試一試。要是客戶的名字是Smith，我該說：Mr. Smith, I would like to introduce you to Mr. Johnson。對嗎?

　　M：No, 不對。你應(yīng)該說：Mr. Smith, I would like to introduce Mr. Johnson to you。要是你把我介紹給Mr. Johnson你該怎么說?

　　C：我該說：Mr. Johnson, I would like to introduce Mary to you.

　　M：That' correct。這里的差別似乎很微妙，但是很重要。我們再來復(fù)習(xí)一遍。

　　C：OK。 Rule #1，always introduce people of lesser rank to people of greater rank。

　　M：對，要是我把你陳豪介紹給Mr. Johnson, 我該說：Mr. Johnson, I would like to introduce Chen Hao to you。

　　C：這已經(jīng)符合Rule #2: say the name of the most important person first。

　　M：Rule #3剛才已經(jīng)說了。OK, you're all set. Good luck tonight and enjoy!

　　實用商務(wù)英語口語會話三：餐桌禮儀

　　陳豪這小伙子正在和他的同事美籍華人Mary在一個美國餐館吃午飯。兩人正在點菜。

　　(Office ambience)

　　C：Mary, 看到菜譜上的湯就讓我想起一句英文："As the ships sail out to sea, I spoon my soup away from me." 不過，我一直沒有弄懂這句話究竟是什么意思?

　　M：Oh, that's a little rhyme that helps children remember the correct way to eat soup.

　　C：喝湯還有正確不正確的呀? 不就是一勺一勺舀了往嘴里放嗎?

　　M：美國人在正式場合喝湯時有一定之規(guī)。"I spoon my soup away from me" means you spoon the soup toward the front of the bowl and then bring the spoon back to your mouth.

　　C：(若有所思地)用調(diào)羹往湯碗的外邊舀，然后再把調(diào)羹收回來送到嘴邊。Why so complicated?

　　M：這樣可以避免勺下面的湯滴在桌布上或衣服上。

　　C：Mary，let's each order a soup and try it out. I'm hungry, I want a clam chowder.

　　M：Clam chowder with sea food and meat. It's too filling. 我不餓，要個清湯就行了。

　　******

　　(Soup arrives and they start to eat. Sounds of slurping)

　　M：陳豪，你吃得好香呀! It sounds as if you're enjoying your soup..

　　C：It's delicious! 味道真好。

　　M：But I'm sorry to say that slurping is considered bad manners in Western etiquette.

　　C：聽說過西方人喝湯不能有聲音。這湯也太燙了。我吹吹再吃。

　　M：不要吹。 If your soup is too hot, stir it slightly or simply wait.

　　C：又不能出聲，又不能吹。那我就用勺攪動攪動，等它涼一點。

　　M：陳豪，你注意到?jīng)]有，我喝的是清湯。我在勺的邊上往里喝。而你的clam chowder 里面有肉，土豆等，沒法從邊上往里放。

　　C：That's right。我的雜燴里好多東西，沒法象清湯那樣往嘴里喝。

　　M：This is a good restaurant. The soup is wonderful, we should come more often.

　　(Sound of spoon scraping the bowl)

　　M：Chen Hao，don't scrape your bowl. Just tip your bowl away from you to retrieve the last spoonful of soup.

　　C：把碗往外抬起一點，讓湯都到一邊去。Mary, what are the main points that I need to remember?

　　M：Spoon the soup toward the center or front of the bowl and then bring the spoon back to your mouth; slurping is considered bad manners in Western etiquette; if the soup is too hot, stir it slightly or simply wait; tip your bowl away from you to retrieve the last spoonful of soup.

　　實用商務(wù)英語口語會話四：請客籌備

　　陳豪是個勤快的年輕人，ABC美國公司的總裁很喜歡他， 正在逐漸給他增加一些任務(wù)。陳豪也很機(jī)靈，凡是沒有把握的事都去請教美籍華人Mary。

　　(Office ambience)

　　M：陳豪，你好象很激動，What happened?

　　C：啊呀，我們的總裁，Mr. Moore，讓我明天請兩位客戶吃晚飯。我知道， 我過去一直是當(dāng)陪客的，never been a host。I don't even know what to do!

　　M：Don't worry。當(dāng)主人主要是要保證晚餐進(jìn)行得順順當(dāng)當(dāng)，讓客人感到舒適滿意。

　　C：可問題是怎么做。Tell me specifically what to do first。

　　M：First, of course, choose a restaurant， 找個合適的飯館呀!

　　C：哎，我們公司附近不是最近開了一個新飯館嗎? I'll take them there。

　　M：你呀，最好找一個你熟悉的飯館，so you can be sure that the food and service will be good。

　　C：那倒是，否則太危險。I did hear that new restaurant is quite noisy。

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

　　C：有了，我想起了一個非常合適的飯館。 Mary, would you like to have lunch there with me today to check it out?

　　M：Thank you. I'd love to be your guinea pig for lunch。我就做一回你的試驗品吧!

　　C：Guinea pig! 請你吃飯還說做我的試驗品!

　　******

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

　　M：It's perfect。對了，既然你現(xiàn)在在這里，你可以認(rèn)識一下那head waiter，把明天的帳先付了，take care of the bill for tomorrow night。

　　C：飯還沒有吃，吃什么都還不知道，就付錢?

　　M：沒有關(guān)系的。你先把信用卡給他，讓他印一份，告訴他你要給多少小費，然后簽個字，讓他們把賬單的副本寄給你。

　　C：But isn't it risky to give someone your credit card?

　　M：像樣的飯館都有信譽，so it's not risky and it's done all the time。要是你不想先付帳的話，那你當(dāng)天就先告訴服務(wù)員吃完飯后把賬單交給你。That will eliminate any confusion over who is paying.

　　C：That's a very good idea。對了，Mary，既然我們在這里，那我就先定一個比較安靜，景色比較好的桌子吧。

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

　　C：Mary，Thank you so much.

　　M：You're welcome. Next time you'll know that as a host, it's 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.

　　實用商務(wù)英語口語會話五：職場禮節(jié)

　　陳豪剛從大學(xué)畢業(yè)就在北京的一家美國公司找到了一份工作。今天他收到一張通知，可是里面有一個詞他不懂，他只知道讓他去參加一個什么訓(xùn)練班。所以他就去請教公司里的美籍華人Mary 。

　　(Office ambience)

　　C：Excuse me, Mary, 請問通知上這個詞是什么意思呀?E-t-i-q-u-e-t-t-e。

　　M：Oh, etiquette, 原來是法文，意思是禮節(jié)。

　　C: 噢，原來是要我去參加禮節(jié)訓(xùn)練班。 Mary，這詞是怎么發(fā)音的?

　　M：E-ti-ket。Q-u是發(fā)k的音，而不是發(fā)q的音，e-ti-ket。

　　C：我們來公司工作，又不是來社交，為什么要講禮節(jié)呀?

　　M：Etiquette is very important to business。一個公司的雇員對客戶是不是很客氣，有禮貌，這對經(jīng)營有很大關(guān)系。

　　C：具體地說，這兒說的etiquette指些什么呢?

　　M：Etiquette is a set of rules that allow us to interact with others in a civilized manner。

　　C：以文明的方式對待別人的一些原則。

　　M：具體地說就是treating other people with courtesy and respect and making them feel comfortable with you.

　　C：嗯，(若有所思地) 對人要有禮貌，要尊敬別人，還要讓人覺得和你在一起很自如。

　　這沒問題，I'm always polite and courteous to others。

　　M：但是，訓(xùn)練班講的是西方禮節(jié) - western etiquette，和中國的禮節(jié)還不完全一樣，因為兩國有文化差異。

　　C：這禮節(jié)還有文化差異?我得去訓(xùn)練班聽聽再說。

　　******

　　C：嗨， Mary，我的訓(xùn)練班結(jié)束了，你那天說的文化差異一點也沒錯。

　　M：聽起來訓(xùn)練班好像讓你開竅啦?

　　C: 是啊。我那天跟會計室的那金發(fā)女郎聊天，聊得很愉快。 結(jié)果我問她多大年紀(jì)了，她一下子就變得很不高興，支支吾吾沒有回答就走了。

　　M：Asking someone's age is offensive to an American.

　　C：參加了訓(xùn)練班才知道不能問美國人年齡的。

　　M：你辦公室里的小王今天早上突然問年薪有多少。美國人認(rèn)為打聽這種私人的事是不禮貌的。我想對有些中國人來說也是不禮貌的。

　　C：沒錯。

　　M：既然你訓(xùn)練班已經(jīng)結(jié)束，我來考考你: Tell me what is etiquette?

　　C：我來試試。 Etiquette is a set of rules that allow us to interact with others in a civilized manner。

　　M：And treating other people with courtesy and respect and making them feel comfortable with you.

　　C: Mary，以后我有問題還會來請教你喲!

　　M：No problem.
