29
Hi.
30
Diane Kennedy asked me to meet you.
31
Welcome to Lois Engineering.
32
Thank you.
33
Thank you.
34
Come this way, please.
35
We need to take the lift, or as you say, elevator. To the third floor.
36
It's a great building.
37
Yes, it is.
38
It's a nice place to work.
39
So what do you do, Jasmine?
40
Oh, I'm Diane's personal assistant, so I answer the phone and manage her schedule.
41
Is she very busy then?
42
Yes.
43
She travels a lot.
44
I book all her plane tickets and hotels.
45
I see.
46
And do you travel with her sometimes?
47
No, not usually.
48
I stay here, and then I'm responsible for the office and deal with any problems.
49
You have a lot to do.
50
Yes.
51
And in meetings, of course, I take the minutes.
52
And you look after visitors to the company.
53
Yes, that's right.
54
Ah, here it is.
55
After you.
56
Thanks.
57
Here we are.
58
Can I take your coat?
59
Thank you.
60
Would you like to sit down?
61
I'm afraid Diane is still in a meeting.
62
Would you like a cup of coffee?
63
Er...
64
Or a glass of water or juice?
65
I think I'd like some coffee, please.
66
Would you like milk and sugar?
67
Yes, please, both.
68
Thanks.
69
And how about you, Mr. Rogers?
70
Oh, please, call me Paul.
71
Uh, I'd like some orange juice, please.
72
Here you are, Paul.
73
Thanks very much.
74
I'm sorry you have to wait, but Diane should be here soon.
75
That's fine.
76
Don't worry.
77
So, how was your flight?
78
How was your flight?
79
Oh, it was fine, but we had to check in very early this morning at Frankfurt Airport.
80
Oh, yes.
81
Airport security takes such a long time these days.
82
How's the hotel?
83
Very nice.
84
Thank you for making the reservation for us.
85
My pleasure.
86
Is this your first time here?

Well, not to London, of course, but it's our first time to your company.
88
Yes, and we're very interested in your products.
89
Good.
90
How long are you staying in London?
91
A week.
92
What should we do at the weekend?
93
Um, do you like football?
94
You know, soccer?
95
Yes, very much.
96
Would you like to see a Chelsea match this weekend?
97
I could get you some tickets.
98
Thank you, that's a great idea.
99
Fantastic.
100
You're welcome.
101
By the way, I've made reservations for lunch for you and Diane at a French restaurant near here.
102
Is that okay?
103
Excellent.
104
Thank you.
105
That sounds great.
106
Good.
107
Well, I'll find out where Diane is and let her know you're here.
108
Fine.
109
Stupid rhino.
110
Here she is.
111
Diane, I'd like to introduce John Carter and Paul Rogers from Australian Power Utilities.
112
Nice to meet you.
113
Nice to meet you too, Miss Kennedy.
114
I'm John Carter.

This is my colleague Paul Rogers.
118
Pleased to meet you, Diane.
119
Pleased to meet you too, Paul.
120
And I see you've met my assistant Jasmine already.
121
I'm very sorry I'm late.
122
I'm afraid my last meeting went on for a while.
123
Oh, don't worry.
124
Jasmine took care of us.
125
Good.
126
So, please have a seat.
127
Thanks.
128
Jasmine Goodman?
129
Hello, Sally.
130
John Carter and Paul Rogers?
131
Yes, that's fine.
132
I'll come and get them.
133
Great.
134
Thanks very much, Sally.
135
Really?
136
That's amazing.
137
Jasmine, good to see you again.
138
Hello, Paul.
139
Hi, John.
140
Nice to see you again, too.
141
How are you, Jasmine?
142
I'm fine, thanks. And you?
143
Very well, thanks.
144
Have you checked into your hotel okay?
145
Yes, we have.
146
Good, good.
147
Thank you for organizing everything for us again.
148
No problem.
149
And this is a small present from our company to say thank you for all your help.
150
Aw, thank you very much.
151
That's really kind of you.
152
No worries.
153
I'll open it upstairs.
154
Ready to go up?
155
Yeah.
156
So, here's the schedule for the next two days.
157
Can I just run through it?
158
Yes, of course. Of course.
159
Alright, first of all, this afternoon you're meeting Chris Fox, the factory manager, together with Diane.
160
They want to show you the factory.
161
Interesting.
162
After Chris has given you the tour, Diane wants to show you some of our ideas for the new equipment and you can talk to some of our engineers.
163
And then Diane is taking you to dinner together with Mr. Harris, the managing director of Lois Engineering.
164
Sounds good.
165
Next, tomorrow morning at 9.30, Diane
166
and I are picking you up from your hotel to take you by car to our test facility just outside of London.
167
And you can see some of our equipment in action.
168
That'll be interesting.
169
I hope so.
170
While you're there, you're meeting the test manager, Jim Gibson, and he can show you everything.
171
Great!
172
I know Jim already, in fact.
173
Ah, good.
174
Finally, at about 4 o'clock, a taxi's picking you up from here and taking you to the airport.
175
Your flight back to Australia is at 7 o'clock, I think?
176
Yeah, that's right.
177
Well, that all sounds very well organised.
178
Thanks again, Jasmine.
179
You're welcome.
180
And I think that Diane can explain that later.
181
Just a moment.
182
Jasmine Goodman?
183
Oh, hello, Diane.
184
Yes, John and Paul are here already.
185
Oh dear.
186
Right.
187
Yes, I'll tell them.
188
No, don't worry.
189
Yes.
190
Yes, no problem.
191
Okay, well, I hope she's better soon.
192
Right.
193
Bye.
194
Bye.
195
Is there a problem?
196
Yes, I'm afraid there is.
197
That was Diane.
198
Her daughter's sick.
199
Nothing serious, I hope?
200
No, I don't think so.
201
But she does need to take her to the doctor.
202
I truly apologise but she can't come around the factory with you today.
203
So we need to adjust the schedule because she really wants to do that with you.
204
Okay.
205
So I want to move forward the visit to our test facility that we planned for tomorrow to today.
206
Alright.
207
And move back the visit to the factory to tomorrow so Diane can come as well.
208
She sends her apologies for changing the plan.
209
No problem.
210
And a dinner this evening.
211
Will you come as well, or is it just Mr. Harris?
212
Just Mr. Harris.
213
I'd love to come, but unfortunately I have to babysit for a friend this evening.
214
I'm really sorry.
215
And Diane is just in a short meeting with Mr. Harris.
216
She'll be here in five minutes to go with us to the factory.
217
But how was your visit to our test facility yesterday?
218
It was very interesting.

226
You can ask her later.
227

为什么用这个视频练习口语?

职场英语对话是最实用的口语练习素材!这个视频模拟了真实的商务接待场景:访客登记、领取访客证、与助理沟通……每一句都紧扣工作中的实际需求。通过跟读(也就是“英语影子跟读”),你能快速掌握职场礼仪表达,提升临场反应能力。无论是准备面试还是应对日常工作沟通,这样的场景练习都能让你更自信。快找个“shadowing site”,跟着视频一句句模仿吧!

语境中的语法与表达

对话里藏着不少实用表达,一起看看:

  • 请求与提供帮助:“Can I have a pen?”(能给我一支笔吗?)和“Here you are.”(给你。)是职场中最常用的礼貌句式,简单却关键。
  • 介绍身份:“I'm John Carter, and this is my colleague, Paul Rogers.” 介绍自己和他人时,这样的结构清晰又自然,记得加上“colleague”(同事)这样的职场词汇。
  • 描述工作内容:“I answer the phone and manage her schedule.” 用并列动词短语简洁说明职责,适合在面试或交流中介绍自己的工作。

这些表达都很“接地气”,多练习就能灵活运用到实际场景中。

常见发音陷阱

视频中的发音有几个需要注意的地方:

  • “elevator”(电梯)的英式发音是/ˈelɪveɪtə(r)/,但对话中用了美式的“lift”/lɪft/,注意区分两种说法。
  • “schedule”的发音有/ˈʃedjuːl/(英式)和/ˈskedʒuːl/(美式),视频中用的是后者,跟读时要注意重音位置。
  • “colleague”的发音是/ˈkɒliːɡ/(英式)或/ˈkɑːliːɡ/(美式),不要把“ea”发成“i”的音。

想要练好发音,“shadow speak”是个好方法:跟着视频逐句模仿,注意语调、重音和连读。坚持练习,你的口语会越来越地道!

无论是“英语口语练习”还是“影子跟读”,关键在于多听多模仿。快打开视频,开始你的职场英语提升之旅吧!

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构,并附上视频中的原话:

结构视频中的用法
现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事I've made · you've met · has given
用 “should” 提建议 should + 动词 — 表示应该做的事should be · should we do
“will” 表将来 will + 动词 — 决定、承诺或预测I'll just call · will come · I'll find
义务:must / have to / need to 表示某事是必要的need to take · have to wait · had to check

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
