What? Bite my head off!
Oh… well, if he won’t bite me… then I suppose I should go and see him.
好吧，只要他別咬我……我想我應該去見見他。Thanks for your advice Denise, I could kiss you.
謝謝你告訴我這些丹尼斯，真想親親你。
Right, I’m going to go and see him right now.
好的，我現在就去見他。Make an action plan! A good idea.
寫一份行動計劃！好主意。Well done Denise, you’re smarter than you look!
幹得好丹尼斯，原來你比看起來要聰明！And well done Anna, you eventually got the help you needed by using these phrases.
你也幹得不錯，安娜，總算用上了這些句子來請求別人的幫助。I would be most grateful if you could give me some help.
如果您能幫我個幫我將萬分感謝。Please could I ask you for some advice?
請問您能不能給我些建議？I know you’re busy but could you spare me a few minutes of your time please?
我知道您很忙，不過能不能耽誤您幾分鐘時間？Remember, if you’re stuck for ideas just ask for help…but maybe not Tom, I wonder how he’s getting on?
記住，如果你一時想不出辦法，可以向別人尋求幫助……但也許不是找湯姆，我想知道他那邊找的怎麼樣了？Here Anna, I’ve got them.
給你，安娜，我找到了。Look, all my ideas from my last stock control project…pages and pages of them.
你看，這些就是我上一個庫存管理項目裏想出的點子……好多好多頁呢。Just copy these, they’re brilliant. Anna? Anna!
複印一下就可以用了，這些材料棒極了。安娜？安娜！…too late, I’ve just seen her in the lift. Fancy a custard cream Tom?
太晚了，我剛纔看她進電梯了。想不想來點蛋奶餅乾，湯姆？So Anna is off to speak to the prickly Mr Ingle.
所以現在安娜正在坐電梯下去找不容易對付的英格爾先生談話。Let’s hope she uses those phrases to ask for help, otherwise she might get her head bitten off – and it could get very messy!
希望她能用到那些求助的好句子，要不然她的頭會被咬掉的，那可就麻煩了！See you next time.
下次見啦！
