Steve：Did you read my report about the proposed new series of exercise bikes? （史提夫：妳看了我所提議的新系列運動腳踏車的報告嗎？）
Kyra：Yes. Thanks for preparing that for me. It contained a lot of useful information, especially the section on ... （奇拉：看了，謝謝你為我準備的報告。裡面有許多有用的訊息，尤其是.......的部份。）
Steve：Kyra, could you speak a little more slowly? The phone connection is not so good. （史提夫：奇拉，妳可以說慢一點嗎？電話的聲音不是很清楚。）
Kyra：No problem. Anyway, I was just saying your report was useful for me. （奇拉：沒問題，反正，我剛才是說你的報告對我很有用。）
Steve：That's good to hear. Does everything make sense? （史提夫：很高興聽妳這麼說。一切都清楚嗎？）
Kyra：Maybe I am missing your point in the report. Do you mean that you will definitely introduce the new series of bikes? （奇拉：也許我沒有懂妳報告上的重點。你是說你一定會引進新系列的腳踏車嗎？）
Steve：I think I wasn't clear. I mean that we will introduce the new series if most of our customers think it's better than the current series. So, it depends on our survey of our customers. （史提夫：我想我沒有說清楚。我的意思是說，假如我們大多數的顧客認為它比目前的系列好， 我們就會引進新系列。所以說，這要看我們的顧客調查。）
Kyra：I see. What do you mean by “survey”? Do you have a formal written survey for me to fill out? （奇拉：我知道了。你所謂的『調查』是什麼意思？你有正式的書面調查讓我填寫嗎？）
Steve：No. It's just informal. I am calling all my customers to get their opinions. （史提夫：沒有。只是非正式的。我會打電話給所有的顧客，以得知他們的意見。）
Kyra：Could you say that again? My office is really noisy today. （奇拉：你可以再說一次嗎？我辦公室今天真的很吵。）
Steve：Sure. I just said that I will call all my customers and chat with them to find out what they think. （史提夫：當然可以。我剛剛說，我會打電話給我所有的顧客和他們聊聊， 以了解他們的想法。）
Kyra：Okay. Well, our report says that the new series has more fancy models. Could you be more specific? （奇拉：好。呃，我們的報告上說新系列會有更炫的樣式。你可以說得具體一點嗎？）
Steve：[provides specific details] Is my answer clear? （史提夫：「提供具體的細節」我的回答清楚嗎？）
Kyra：Could you say that more slowly so that I can write it down? （奇拉：你可以說慢一點以便讓我寫下來？）
Steve：You mean the last part about the colors? （史提夫：妳是說有關顏色的最後一部分嗎？）
Kyra：Yes. （奇拉：是的。）
Steve：Oh, I can send an email to you today with all the details. （史提夫：噢，我今天可以用電子郵件把所有的細節寄給妳。）
Kyra：Alright, thanks. By the way, would you mind telling me why the new bikes are ten percent more expensive? （奇拉：好，謝謝。對了，你介不介意告訴我為什麼新的腳踏車要貴10％？）
Steve：It is because of the special alloy we use. I'm not familiar with the exact composition of the alloy, but I know the higher quality metal is more expensive for us to buy. Can I get back to you about that later today? （史提夫：那是因為我們用了特別的合金。我對合金的確切成分不熟， 不過我知道品質較高的金屬要花較多的錢去買。 我可不可以今天稍晚再回覆妳這件事？）
Kyra：Sure. I'd appreciate that. （奇拉：當然可以。感激不盡。）
Steve：Did I give you enough information about the new series? （史提夫：我給妳的新系列訊息足夠嗎？）
Kyra：I think so. Everything is crystal clear. （奇拉：我想夠了。一切都非常清楚。）
