（★ 聽對話內容） 本週話題焦點：簽署買賣契約 (進行簽約)
Ted is giving Polly a ring to see if she has received the contract which he sent by courier to her the day before.
Ted 打電話給 Polly，看她是否已收到他前一天用快遞寄過去的合約。 |
Ted: Hello, Polly? Ted：嗨，是 Polly 嗎？
Polly: This is Polly speaking. Polly：我就是。
Ted: This is Ted again calling from Taiwan. I'm just calling to see if you received the contract I sent to you yesterday. I misplaced the tracking number somewhere, so I wasn't able to check on my computer to see if you had received it or not. Ted：我是從台灣打來的 Ted。我只是打來看看你是否已收到我昨天寄給你的合約。我不知道把貨件追蹤號碼放到那兒去了，所以我沒辦法用電腦確認你是否已收到。
Polly: Yes, I received it and everything is in good order. My boss has signed and sealed it. I will send it off to you this afternoon. Polly：有啊，我收到了，而且一切都已就緒。我老闆已經簽名且蓋章了。我今天下午就會寄出去給你。
Ted: That's great. I'll let you know once I've received it. Ted：那太好了。我一收到就會跟你說一聲。
Polly: Please don't forget to have your boss seal it with your company's Chinese seal, and not the English one. I don't think that an English company seal is recognized here in China. Polly：請別忘記讓你們老闆用公司的中文印鑑蓋章，不要用英文的。我想英文的公司印鑑在大陸是不會被認可的。
Ted: I'll take note of that and pass the message on to my boss. Ted：我會特別注意這點並且把這訊息告知我老闆。
Polly: Let me know if there are any problems or questions on your side after you've received it. Polly：等你收到以後，如果你們那邊有任何問題或疑問，請讓我知道。
Ted: Will do. Nice doing business with you. Have a great day! Ted：沒問題。很高興與你合作做生意。祝你有美好的一天！
Polly: You too! Take care! Polly：你也是！再見囉！
