　　工作英語對話：老板和市場部經(jīng)理討論廣告宣傳活動(dòng)

　　In this conversation, Tanya Nichols, the owner of an ice cream manufacturing company, is talking with her marketing manager, Carla Hutchison, about the advertising campaign for the company’s new ice-cream sandwich. 　　Tanya: Good morning, Carla. How are you today?

　　Carla: I’m doing fine. How about you?

　　Tanya: Great, thanks. So, what’s the status of our advertising campaign?

　　Carla: As I mentioned before, it’ll be a national campaign starting next month. We’ve decided to use a variety of media for full coverage. First, we’ll have 30-second spots on television once a day for 3 weeks.At the same time, we’ll do 15-second radio commercials 3 times a day in selected cities with large populations. Finally, we’ll have some outdoor ads using billboards near main entrances to big cities.

　　Tanya: What style will the ads use?

　　Carla: We’re focusing on slice of life, showing how you can beat the summer heat by biting into a cool ice-cream sandwich. There’ll be some reason why thrown in to hype our choice of flavors and show everyone they’re not stuck with just vanilla.

　　Tanya: Sounds like an ideal approach. Will we have a new slogan?

　　Carla: Definitely. The advertising agency’s working onthat right now. They’ll have some proposals ready by the end of the week.

　　Tanya: Sounds like we’ll have a winner on our hands!

　　在這個(gè)對話中，Tanya Nichols是一家冰淇淋生產(chǎn)公司的老板，她正在和她的市場部經(jīng)理Carla Hutchison就公司新的冰淇淋三明治的廣告宣傳活動(dòng)談話。

　　Tanya: 早上好，Carla。你今天過得怎么樣?

　　Carla: 我很好，你呢?

　　Tanya: 很好，謝謝。我們公司的廣告宣傳作得怎么樣了?

　　Carla: 正如我以前所提到的，我們下個(gè)月開始的宣傳活動(dòng)，是全國范圍內(nèi)的。我們已經(jīng)決定利用各種媒體做全面宣傳。首先，我們在電視上做持續(xù)三個(gè)禮拜的廣告，每天一次，時(shí)間為30秒鐘傳。同時(shí)，我們還會(huì)在被選中的人口較多的城市的電臺(tái)廣播中宣傳，每天三次，每次時(shí)間為15秒。最后，我們還會(huì)有一些戶外宣傳活動(dòng)，在大城市的主要入口處，樹立廣告牌。

　　Tanya: 那么采取什么樣的風(fēng)格呢?

　　Carla: 我們將把焦點(diǎn)放在日常生活方面，告訴你只要吃一個(gè)冰淇淋三明治，就能消除夏日炎熱。我們還會(huì)通過對多樣性口味選擇的宣傳，告訴大家推薦我們公司產(chǎn)品的原因，香草并不是惟一的口味。

　　Tanya: 似乎是個(gè)完美的方案。我們會(huì)有新的口號(hào)嗎?

　　Carla: 當(dāng)然，廣告代理商正在設(shè)計(jì)呢。這個(gè)周末會(huì)出臺(tái)一些新的策劃。

　　Tanya: 聽起來我們將會(huì)成為一個(gè)大贏家!

　　職場口語對話：討論如何稱呼同事

　　f: welcome aboard!

　　歡迎你來本公司工作!

　　c: thank you, i'm delighted to be working here, mr. buchwald.

　　謝謝。我很高興能來這里上班，布奇華先生。

　　f: call me buck, will you? my name is reginald buchwald but everybody calls me buck. it's easier.

　　叫我布客就可以了。我的全名是雷奇納客·布奇華，但是大家都叫我布客。這樣比較方便。

　　c: i'd prefer to call you mr. buchwald. isn't it rather disrespectful to make a nickname out of one's family name?

　　我更愿意稱呼您布奇華先生。用別人的姓做昵稱，不是很不禮貌嗎?

　　f: well, president eisenhower was known as ike. everybody in this company all the way up and down the line is called by his or her first name.

　　嗯，艾森豪威爾總統(tǒng)也被呢稱為艾克。我們公司的上上下下都是直呼每個(gè)人的姓。

　　f: it's been our tradition ever since the company was small. and don't worry about the 'disrespectful' business. ok?

　　在我們公司規(guī)模很小的時(shí)候這就已經(jīng)形成傳統(tǒng)。不要擔(dān)心不禮貌的事了，好嗎?

　　c: i'll try.

　　我會(huì)試試看。

　　f: good. but when there are outsiders, like business people from other companies, it might be good to address your higher-ups as mr., ms. or whatever is appropriate. to those outside the company, it may be interpreted as a sign of flippancy or lax discipline. get it?

　　好。不過。如果有外人在時(shí)，比如其他公司的人，最好能稱呼你的上司為先生、女士或任何適當(dāng)?shù)姆Q謂。對外人而言，我們的習(xí)慣可能會(huì)是輕率的和紀(jì)律松懈的表現(xiàn)。明白嗎?

　　c: yes, sir.

　　是的，先生。

　　f: (laughing) and don't 'sir' me either. now i'll show you your private office.

　　(笑著說)也不要叫我先生?，F(xiàn)在，我?guī)闳タ茨愕乃饺宿k公室。

　　Kara: Sounds interesting. Maybe it'll be OK after all. What about the men? Has the policy been changed for them, too?

　　Betty: Ha! I knew you were a non-conformist at heart!

　　我就知道你并不是那種墨守陳規(guī)的人。
