在宴會上At the Party

Mr. Lee: Excuse me, everyone. If I could just have your attention for a few minutes… I’d like to thank you all for coming. Welcome to Go-Getters Advertising Agency’s Annual Make Your Market Banquet. We’re happy to be celebrating the end of another successful year. I’d like to propose a toast, if I may. Here’s to successful projects completed, to the team that made them happen, and to the profits all our clients are sure to make!
對不起，各位。佔用大家幾分鐘時間……我非常感謝大家能來。歡迎你們參加“進取者”廣告公司一年一度的“佔領市場”主題宴會。我們很高興能在豐收的一年的年末慶祝我們的成功。請允許我舉杯祝願。祝賀項目圓滿完成，感謝項目組人員，祝我們所有的客戶能財源廣進!
Rob: To successful projects!
祝賀項目圓滿完成!
Jill: To revenue!
祝賀我們財源廣進!

Rob: Mr. Lee, I’m afraid I have to leave a little early. I wanted to say thanks so much for another lovely banquet. Everything was delicious, and the pre-dinner entertainment was superb.
李先生，恐怕我得提前一會兒離開。非常感謝您準備的豐盛晚餐。菜餚很可口，餐前的娛樂活動非常棒。
Mr. Lee: I’m glad you enjoyed it. Our video lab technicians love putting together the annual comedy video. Hope you’ll be able to join us again next year.
您能喜歡，我非常高興。我們的音像師喜歡把每年有趣的錄像連在一起，希望您明年還能還參加我們的聚會。

Rob: I’m sure I will.
我一定會的。
Mr. Lee: I hope you have enjoyed your evening, Jill.
但願您今晚過得愉快，Jill.
Jill: Yes. It is wonderful to be celebrating another successful year at the agency. I’m so glad you included me on the guest list.
是的。又是公司成功的一年，慶祝活動很精彩! 很榮幸被邀請。
Mr. Lee: Of course, of course. It wouldn’t be a celebration without our newest client. I am so glad you could make it! Will you be staying for the dance?
當然，當然。沒有新客戶參加，這就不算是慶祝了。很高興您能成爲我們的客戶。留下來參加舞會，怎麼樣？

Jill: No, I have to head home pretty soon. I have an early morning tomorrow.
不了，我得儘快回家。明天我得早起。
Mr. Lee: Me, too. If you can wait for me, I’ll walk out with you. I just have to give a short speech to start the band off, and then I will be free to go.
我也是。如果您能等我，我想和您一起走。我得去說幾句，讓樂隊開始演奏，然後我就可以走了。
Jill: Sure, I can wait a few minutes.
好的，我等您幾分鐘。
