As Ms.Tina said, the purpose of my presentation today is to familiarize you with the new EBP. As you probably know, EBP stands for Electronic Book Player. Our company put the original EBP on the market a year ago, but we have since all developed an improved model which we believe will be a big seller in both China and the U.S. A:謝謝，我很高興能在這兒演講。正如蒂娜女士所說，今天我講演的目的就是向大家介紹新的電子書。我想大家可能已經(jīng)知道，EBP就是Electronic Book Player（電子書）的縮寫。一年以前我們推出EBP到市場上。之后我們公司又繼續(xù)研發(fā)出一款改良型產(chǎn)品，我們相信在中國和美國都會非常暢銷。 B:Ms.Yang, can you tell us in what ways the new EBP is better than the old model？ B:楊女士，您能不能為我們介紹一下新款的EBP在哪些方面比舊款的好？ A:Certainly. First of all, the old model had a rather small screen, so not much information could appear at one time. So on the new model, we have made the screen much bigger and... A:當(dāng)然。首先舊款因?yàn)楫嬅嫘?，所以無法顯示很多的信息。而在新款機(jī)種中，我們把畫面加大了許多。還有…… B:Excuse me, but what are the EBPs mainly used for? B:對不起，請問EBP最主要的用途是什么？ A:Oh, there are many uses and Ill explain them in detail a little later. First, Id like to... A:噢！它有很多用途，稍等一會兒，我會詳細(xì)地加以說明。首先，我想要… B:Before you go on. Ms Yang, could you tell us if the original EBP sold well in the U.S.? B:楊女士，您能否先告訴我們，舊款的EBP在美國是否賣得很好？ A:You were right, Mr. Tim. Your colleagues do want about it. A:蒂姆先生，正如您所說，您的同事們真的想知道有關(guān)EBP所有的一切。 6. Product Quality產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量 A:Wed like to have you help straighten out the trouble concerning the bicycles. A:我們希望您能幫我們解決有關(guān)自行車產(chǎn)品的麻煩。 B:OK, can you give me the facts? B:當(dāng)然，能講講情況嗎？ A:We have here a copy of the inspection certificate issue by the Commodity Inspection Bureau and a set of photos. The inspection certificate states that the bikes were found rusty when they were unpacked and the photos taken on the spot back up the findings. A:這是商檢局開具的檢驗(yàn)證明書副本和一組照片。檢驗(yàn)證明書上說，開箱時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)自行車已經(jīng)生銹，這些當(dāng)場拍的照片能證明這點(diǎn)。 B:Are all our bikes like this? B:我們的自行車都這樣嗎？ A:Not all, there are 5 of them that have rust stains. A:不是全部，五輛有銹斑。 B:This is very unfortunate. Our manufacturer has always attached great importance to the quality of their products. But maybe the rust stains are due to dampness at sea. If thats the case, the liablity should rest with the insurance people. B:真是太不幸了。我們的廠家對他們的產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量向來很重視，也可能這些銹斑是海上受潮造成的。如果那樣的話，就應(yīng)該由保險(xiǎn)公司負(fù)責(zé)。 A:But our experts are of the opinion that the rust stain are not due to dampness but to poor workmanship. Please look at the picture. They surely prove that the derusting of the bikes before plating was not thoroughly done. A:但是我們的專家認(rèn)為，銹斑并不是由于受潮所致，而是由于手工藝粗糙造成的。請看照片，可以肯定證明，電鍍之前，自行車的除銹工作搞得不徹底。 B:Well, it seems that manufacturers have not lived up to their standard in this case. B:嗯，看來這次廠家沒有達(dá)到他們的操作標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。 A:On the strength of this evidence, the responsibility rest with the producer and not with the insurance people. Its obvious that the manufacturers didnt strictly observe the proceeding requirements as stipulated in our contract. A:證據(jù)表明，責(zé)任是生產(chǎn)商方面的，不在保險(xiǎn)公司方面。很顯然，廠家沒有嚴(yán)格遵照我們合同中規(guī)定的加工要求做。 B:Well, Im very sorry for this. Well replace the defectively bikes with new ones. B:對此，我深感抱歉，我們有毛病的自行車都換成新的。 A:Thank you for sorting out the matter for us. A:謝謝您把這事解決了。 7.

B：我們說你們的價(jià)格太高，并不是說僅僅高出2%或3%。如果我們要向你們定貨，我認(rèn)為大約15%的折扣倒還是差不多。 A:What？You want to drive me bankrupt! You cant expect us to make such a large reduction. A:什么?你想讓我們公司破產(chǎn)嗎!我們不可能打這么低的折扣. B:Theres no point in making a counter offer because the gap is too great. B:由于相差太懸殊，討價(jià)還價(jià)也沒有什么意義。 A:How about lO%? This price is already a little tight.our profit margin is not that large.

B：$ 5000 一臺大概是我們能出的最低價(jià)格。 A:Your price is higher than I expected. Could you give us a little discount? A：價(jià)格比我想象中要高。能給我們打點(diǎn)折嗎? B:This is already our best price. B：這已經(jīng)是我們最優(yōu)惠的價(jià)格 A:But the price is always negotiable and you should consider our quantity of order. A：可是價(jià)格總是可以商量的嘛，而且你們應(yīng)該要考慮我們的訂貨數(shù)量。 B:Well,what would you suggest? B：好吧，那你們覺得什么價(jià)格合適呢? A:Could you make it $ 4500"? A:能否把價(jià)格訂在每臺$4500? B:Im afraid that there is no room to negotiate the price. This is the best price we can quote.
