(Office ambience)
C:早上好,Amy. 我刚听到一条办公室的小道消息。
A:小道消息?
C:是关于销售部那个金发美女Sally的。
A:I know a Sally Smith in Marketing. I don't know anything about her except that she appears to be quite talented.
C:我从来没有跟她共事过,听说挺能干的,不过这件事跟工作无关。
A:Then why are you talking about her?
C:我听说她结婚刚刚几个月,就在闹离婚了。
A:I'm sorry, Chen Hao. What does this have to do with work?
C:当然跟工作无关了,说说罢了。
A:This is gossip. How did you come to know this?
C:会计部的Tim跟Sally是朋友,他告诉了Melissa, Melissa又告诉了我。
A:So, is everyone talking about this now?
C:大家都在传。Amy, 你干嘛那么不高兴,是因为Sally要离婚,替她觉得惋惜吗?
A:No. Well, yes, I am sorry to hear that kind of news, but that is not what is bothering me. Let's talk about this over lunch.
C:好,那我们中午在餐厅见。
