接機后的次日，Brian在公司里，為Johnathan 介紹自己的老板-Mr. Sun……。

　　B: Mr. Sun, I'd like you to meet Mr. Johnathan Mitchell, sales manager for Nortern Reflections of Canada. (Sun extends hand first; Sun and Mitchell shake hands) Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Steven Sun, general manager of Apex Trading.

　　孫先生，讓我為你介紹加拿大Northern Reflections的業務經理Jonathan Mitchell先生。（孫先生先伸出，兩人握手）Mitchell先生,這是Steven孫先生,Apex貿易公司的總經理。

　　S: It's very nice to finally meet you, Mr. Mitchell after so many phone calls and faxes. (offers his business card first) I'd like you to have my business card.

　　多次電話、傳真往返之后,非常高興終于見到您，Mitchell先生（先遞出名片）， 請收下我的名片。

　　J: Thanks very much, Mr. Sun. Please accept mine. (offers his own card) and please, call me Johnathan. (both look at cards for a few seconds, then put them in wallets-not pockets.)

　　謝謝您，孫先生。也請收下我的名片（遞上自己的名片），叫我Johnathan就行了。（兩個人都看了一下對方的名片,放入皮夾而非口袋中）

　　B: If you don't mind, Johnathan, while you and Mr. Sun get acquainted, I'd like to check the arrangements for the meeting.

　　如果你不介意，Johnathan在你和孫先生互相認識時，我先失陪，看看會議安排得如何。

　　J: You're certainly on top of things, Brian.

　　Brian，一切當然在你掌握之中！

　　S: (looking at Brian) You'll find Mr. Tayler-Brian - is a force to be reckoned with at Apex Tradig.

　　（看著Brian）Talyer先生,您會發現Brian是Apex貿易公司的大將。

　　B: Thanks for the vote of confidence, Mr. Sun. I'll be right back. (leaves room)

　　孫先生，謝謝你的信任票，我馬上回來。（走出房間）

　　J: He appears to be a top-notch young man, Mr. Sun. Talent and enthusiasm like that are hard to find.

　　孫先生，他看起來是個有為的青年，難找到像他這樣有才干、有熱忱的人。

　　S: Don't I know it. He's doing a great job for us. And please, call me Steven.

　　我完全同意，他在公司表現不凡，請叫我Steven就行了。

　　J: Steven, can you tell me in a nutshell what the retail market is like in Taiwan?

　　Steven，你可以簡單地告訴我臺灣零售市場的現況嗎？

　　S: Well, as per capita income goes up and up, the growth sector seems to be in the to-end.

　　唔，由于每人的平均收入不斷地增高，市場的發展領域似乎偏向于高價位商品。

　　J: Retail is going upscale here? Taiwan is certainly growing more quickly than I had imagined.

　　此地的零售走入高價位了？臺灣的發展比我想像得要快多了。

　　S: Yes. Things certainly have changed since I was a boy. We've developed very quickly.

　　沒錯，現在的臺灣和我小時候完全不一樣了，這里發展得非常快速。

　　J: Do you think the trend will continue?

　　你想這種趨勢還會維持下去嗎？

　　S: I don't see why not. We do have some problems, but we are still willing to work hard-and wages aren't too high at this point.

　　我不覺得有什么不行!雖然是有一些問題，但我們仍愿意勤奮工作，而且現階段工資仍不算太高。

　　J: Everything I've seen so far is very impressive. Very impressive indeed.

　　到目前為止，我所看到的一切都令我印象深刻，真的十分深刻。
