The subject of this unit is on group coordination.
Note the kind of attitude and tone of language
you take when you are in the position of a team
leader.
這個單元的題目是關於團體合作，注意文中的團隊領導者
所用的態度及說話語氣。
John, Mark, Gary, and Thomas are in the
department discussion room. They are talking
about a presentation that they are giving as a
group next week. Gary is the group leader for this
presentation.
John, Mark, Gary, 和Thomas 在一個部門討論的場所，他
們正在討論下禮拜團隊要給的簡報。Gary是這個簡報團隊
中的領導者。
Gary: Aright everyone, Thanks for coming. As you
all know, the presentation is in one week.
The purpose of this meeting is just to make
sure that we all know what we are doing
and also that everybody is on the same
page.
Gary: 好，各位。首先謝謝你們的出席。如你們所知，一
星期內要做一個簡報。開這個會議的目的是要確定
我們都在做什麼還有大家的看法都是相同的。
Gary: I know it’s already late and we’re all tired,
so let’s try to finish this as quickly as
possible. Mark, your part is history
overview, why don’t we start with you?
Gary: 我知道現在已經很晚了而且我們都累了。所以我們
盡快完成工作吧!Mark負責的部份是歷史概述。讓我們
從你開始吧!
Mark: Ok. I think I’m pretty much all done with my
part and it was actually easy and
straightforward. It’s basically just about
doing the research. This product has been
around since the 1990s and each version
change had been well logged and
documented.
Mark: 好，我想我差不多完成了我的部份，而且實際上
它是簡單及直接的。基本上是有關考證。這個產品在
1990年代已經上市，每手版本的變化都被完善的在文件
上紀錄和證明。
Mark: Some versions even had detailed
documentaries of their specific modification.
All I had to do was some cut and paste
editing and minor adjustments.
Mark: 一些版本還詳細的記錄它們特別修改的部份。現在
我做一些修剪和黏貼編輯及些微的調整。
Gary: Good. Sounds like you got all covered.
Gary: 聽起來，這已經在你的掌握中囉!
Mark: Oh, and I also made some arrangements
this week to talk with some of the senior
employees who have actually used the
older versions. I’m sure getting their firsthand experience would give us some
interesting input.
Mark: 噢，我也做一些安排，在這周跟一些實際上使用過
舊產品的資深員工談論。我確定拿到他們的第一
手經驗，可以給我們一些有趣的意見。
Gary: Excellent. How about you, Thomas? How
are you doing?
Gary: 太棒了!Thomas那你呢?如何?
Thomas: I think I’m done with my part, too. I had
to work very hard, but I finished It.
Thomas:我認為我也做好自己的部份。雖然我在這部份必
需非常努力，但我完成了它。
Gary: What difficulties have you encountered?
Gary: 有遇到什麼困難嗎?
Thomas; well, making comparisons between
versions is the easy part. And finding
out why every version is better than the
last was still not that difficult. But
the hard thing is to make the
comprehensive analysis that would show
the disadvantage of all of them in order
to convince people that this radical
change we propose is necessary.
Thomas:恩，要區分版本之間是比較容易的部份。查明每個版本為
什麼比過去一個更好並不這麼難。但是困難的事情是做詳細的分
析，並且表現出他們所有的缺點，來說服聽眾相信我們提出巨大
的改變是必要的。
Gary: Yes, I understand, especially when some
members of the audience we plan to give the
presentation to are those who developed it.
Gary: 喔!我了解!我們計劃要給的簡報的觀眾中，其中一
部分是開發這個產品的成員。
Thomas: And, it not like the company was losing
money.
Thomas: 並且，公司又沒賠錢。
Gary: Well, that’s where I come in. My job is to
convince them that with this new measure
we are developing, our production rate
would improve drastically and we could do
that three-quarters of our current cost!
Gary: 那就是我的工作。我的工作就是說服他們以我們
新發展出來的提案，我們的生產良率將大大的改革，
而且我們能以目前成本的3/4完成。
Thomas: That does sound very intriguing.
Thomas: 聽起來非常有趣。
Gary: Of course it does. As amazing as the idea
sounds, it is totally practical. The result I got from
the simulator would be able to back me up.
Gary: 當然。雖然聽起來很神奇，但是它是很實際的。我從模擬裝
置得到的結果，那能夠支持我的論點。
John: Yeah, just remember to write yourself a
memo “give John those results”.
John:只要記住寫在你自己的備忘錄裡【給John的那些結
果】
Gary: Oh, sorry John, I’ll make sure to give
them to you first thing tomorrow
morning. How are the other charts and
graphics?
Gary: 噢，抱歉。John明天我第一件事就是將確認完的
【資料】給你。那其他 的圖表和製圖工作呢?
John: All the statistics that you guys sent me
were made into visual aids. I’ll do
my best to make sure that they come out clear
and concise.
John: Gary你把全部的統計數值傳給我，我已經做成圖表，我將
會盡全力去使圖呈現的是簡潔明瞭。
Gary: Thank John, you’re the most artistic one in
the department and you sure know your way
around those graphic software.
Gary: 謝了，John!你是這個部門最懂藝術的人而且你也
熟知這些製圖的軟體。
John: It’s a walk in the park. Hey, since I have
the easiest job, I can help anyone
who needs an extra pair of hands.
John: 這對我來說是易如反掌的，因為這是一份非常簡
單的工作，我可以幫助需要我幫助的人。
Gary: Great! Why don’t you
come and help me run
those numbers? I still got
about a couple dozen sets.
Gary: 棒透了!那你來幫助我算這些數字!我剩二十幾組的數據還沒
算。
John: Sure.
John: 好。
Gary: Thank a lot! So I think we’re done here.
Make sure that all materials be
sent to John before the end of the week
so he’ll have time to put them in a neat
format. Thanks everyone, I’ll see you all
tomorrow.
Gary: 謝了!所以我想我們在這裡告一個段落!要確定所有
東西都在這個禮 拜結束前交给John，讓他有足夠的時
間將那些資料編排整齊。謝謝大家，明天見!
