Insisting on a change

A: I’m sorry, Brad. But you are going to have to re-do this.

B: What’s the problem, Ms. Murphy?

A: It’s badly organized. I can’t present this to the board.

B: I’m sorry. Ms. Murphy. I’ll re-work it. Can I give it back to you this afternoon?

坚持修改

A：对不起，布莱德。可这个你得重新做一遍。

B：有什么问题，摩菲女士？

A：这太乱了。我无法向董事会提交。

B：对不起，摩菲女士。我重新做过。今天下午把它交给您，行吗？

Reminding a co-worker

A: Martin? Did you remember to bring back that software I lent you?

B: Oh, Kate! I’m sorry. It completely slipped my mind!

A: That’s okay, Martin. If you could just bring it in tomorrow, I’d appreciate it.

B: Definitely. I’m really sorry!

提醒同事

A：马丁？你记着把我借给你的软体带来了吗？

B：噢，凯特！对不起。全忘在脑后了！

A：没关系，马丁。如果你能明天把它带来，我会很高兴的。

B：一定。我真的非常抱歉！
