【故事梗概】
Alexandra想把Richard 忘下的包还给他。包上挂着Richard的住址牌，Alexandra向一位警察询问该怎样去那里。警察叮嘱Alexandra要坐1路地铁，可是她却仍然坐错了车。
Alexandra: Excuse me, officer. Can you help me?
Policeman: Sure.
Alexandra: Can you tell me how to get to Linden Street, in Riverdale? Policeman: "Richard Stewart, 46 Linden Street, Riverdale, New York." You should take the number one subway.
Alexandra: Is there a station near here?
Policeman: Yes. The station's that way. You should take the number one train to Van Cortlandt Park.
Alexandra: Number one train to Van Cortlandt Park. Thank you. Policeman: Anytime. Good luck. Remember, the number one train. The uptown platform.
Alexandra: Thank you.
Policeman: You're welcome.
【语言点精讲】
1. Excuse me, officer. Can you help me?
当我们向别人寻求帮助时，可以说Excuse me. Can you help me?（劳驾，可以帮个忙吗？）
本文中的officer，是指police officer，即警官。
2. Can you tell me how to get to Linden Street, in Riverdale? "Can you tell me how to get to ...? "可以用来向别人问路，意思是“您能告诉我怎么才能到达某某地点吗？”
3. 46 Linden Street, Riverdale, New York.
这是一般地址的说法。地点由小到大排列。
4. Anytime．
在你为别人做了某事后别人向你道谢时回答Anytime，相当于You are welcome anytime.
5. Good luck.
祝你好运。一般用于与人分手时，回答也用Good luck.
6. uptown platform
北线月台。在纽约，地铁线有uptown 北线（向北驶）和downtown南线（向南驶）之分，在每个地铁站口都有标志。
ACT 2-2 “你穿上它好极了。”
【故事梗概】
在一家时装店里，Richard Stewart的妻子Marilyn Stewart正在接待一位女性顾客。
请听她们的对话：
Customer: Is this pink too bright for me?
Marilyn: Mmm-hmm. It is a very bright pink. Try this. It's size eight. Customer: But I wear size ten.
Marilyn: How about green? It's size ten.
Customer: Let me try it on. I'm taking too much of your time. Marilyn: It's six o'clock. Where's my husband? I was expecting him here at five forty-five.
Customer: Don't worry. The traffic is very heavy at this hour. Marilyn: I know. But we're going to be late for dinner.
Customer: I'll take this green sweater. I like the color on me, don't you? Marilyn: I think it looks terrific on you.
【语言点精讲】
1. Let me try it on.
Let me... 让我...，允许我...。注意在说这两个字时，这位顾客使用的是口语音：
Lemme...这里let的t因为连读而失去了爆破。
try (it) on 试穿。
2. I was expecting him here at five forty-five.
我本来指望他可以5点45分到这里的。Expect是“期望，盼望某事发生”的意思。当我们盼望一个朋友来，等一个电话，等一封信时都可以使用expect.
3. The traffic is very heavy at this hour.
这个时间交通很拥挤。heavy在这里形容交通繁忙，拥堵。
4. I think it looks terrific on you.
我觉得你穿上它好极了。美国人在赞美别人的时候，喜欢用一些比较夸张的形容词。像在本情境中，女性顾客试穿了一件绿色的毛衣，她对Marilyn说"I like the color on me, don't you?"（我觉得我穿这颜色不错，你说呢？）Myrilyn用了这个"terrific"，来赞美她穿这件衣服看起来“好极了，棒极了，简直没治了”。
ACT 2-3 “我实在太感谢你为我所做的这一切了。”
【故事梗概】
Richard赶到了Marilyn工作的时装店。他告诉妻子自己的包忘在了渡轮上。Marilyn在查号台查询了渡轮失物招领处的电话号码并给失物招领处打了电话。她被告知没有人拾到Richard丢失的包。
Richard: I'm sorry I'm so late. I had a really bad day.
Marilyn: It's ten after six. We're late. Robbie's cooking tonight, and dinner's at six thirty.
Richard: I know. I know. I'm really sorry. I left my bag of film on the ferry.
I went back for it, but the ferry was gone. I lost a whole day's work. Marilyn: I'll call the Staten Island Ferry lost-and-found office. Richard: I didn't think of that. Thanks.
Marilyn: Hello. Yes. The number, please, of the Staten Island Ferry
lost-and-found office. Five five five... zero eight zero eight. Thank you. Richard: I really appreciate it, Marilyn.
Marilyn: Hello. Did anyone find a camera bag this afternoon, a small canvas bag, on the J. F. Kennedy Ferry? No? Maybe someone will find it.
The name is Stewart, Richard Stewart. And the telephone number is five five five... three oh nine oh. Thank you. Sorry, Richard. They don't have it.
Richard: Thanks, anyway. There was a girl on the ferry. Now maybe... Marilyn: Tell me about it on the way home.
【语言点精讲】
1. I had a really bad day.
我今天真是糟透了。我今天可不顺了。
2. I'll call the Staten Island Ferry lost-and-found office.
我来给斯塔滕岛渡船失物招领处打个电话。lost-and-found office是指失物招领处。美国的许多公共场所或公园都设有失物招领处，失主可直接与之联系。
3. I didn't think of that.Thanks.
美国人即使是在亲人之间，也是谢谢不离口。
当Marilyn想到要给失物招领处打电话这个主意后，Richard立即表达了感激之情-- "I didn't think of that.Thanks."（我就没想到这个,谢谢。）这里的think of 相当于“记起，想到”。
随后，Marilyn给查号台打电话查询斯塔滕岛渡船失物招领处的电话。面对妻子的帮助，Richard又一次致谢--"I really appreciate it, Marilyn."（我实在太感谢你为我所做的这一切了，Marilyn。）
4. The number, please, of the Staten Island Ferry lost-and-found office.
The number, please, of the...请告诉我...的电话号码。用此来向查号台询问电话号码。
5. small canvas bag
小的粗帆布包。这里用了两个形容词来修饰bag一词：small指尺寸；canvas（粗帆布）指材料。一般形容词的排列顺序是表示尺寸的放在前，表示材料的放在后。
6. Thanks, anyway.
无论如何，我还是要谢谢你。当有人尽力想帮你但没帮上忙时可用此短语道谢。

ACT 1-1 “没有特别的理由。” 【故事梗概】 Richard整日在外奔波忙碌，Marilyn在家照顾婴儿，生活缺少浪漫气息。在他们结婚五周年纪念日的前几天，Richard建议两个人把孩子托给母亲照料，到新婚时度蜜月的地方去重拾最初的欢乐。 [Richard hands Marilyn a bouquet of roses.] Marilyn: What's this for?

Marilyn: Where are we going to be? Richard: If you had your choice of all the places in the world, where would you choose to spend our anniversary? Marilyn: The Watermill Inn. I loved that place when we went on our honeymoon. Richard: Perfect! You picked the right place. Marilyn: I don't understand. Richard: You and I, Mrs. Stewart, are going to spend a second honeymoon at the Watermill Inn. 【语言点精讲】 1. What's this for? 这是为什么？这是干什么？

ACT 1-1 “想让影集出版会遇到不少困难吗？” 【故事梗概】 一天晚上，Richard坐在家里的楼梯上，他在看一些他给各表演艺术中心拍摄的照片。Marilyn走下楼来，她停下脚步帮助Richard审查这一批照片。 Marilyn: What are you doing'? Richard: [He looks at his photographs.] I think I've got them. Marilyn: You think you've got what? Richard: Performing arts - performing arts centers. I think I've got them all, but I'm not sure. Marilyn: [She looks at the photographs.] I think you have got it, Richard. Lincoln Center, home of the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Ballet, the New York Philharmonic. Richard: Shubert Alley center of the theater on Broadway. Marilyn: And Carnegie Hall. And the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington. Richard: And the Music Center in Los Angeles. And the others. I do have it all. Marilyn: You have been working on this for some time, Richard. I'm glad you feel you've finally put it all together. What now? Richard: Now for the hard part. Marilyn: Oh, you think you're going to have a hard time getting the album published? Richard: Well, it won't be easy. 【语言点精讲】 1. I think I've got them． 我认为该拍的我都拍到了。get的意思较多。这里表示“抓住了事物的本质或要点，得到了所期的收获”。

But I think he was nervous tonight. It was his first date in two years. Marilyn: Will you see him again? Susan: I hope so. Marilyn: This food is delicious. Susan: He didn't get a thing to eat. Marilyn: You ordered enough for three or four people, but I'm not complaining. The food is delicious. Susan: Who is that? Marilyn: Do you think it's... Susan: No. [She goes to the door and looks through the peephole] You won't believe it, Marilyn! Marilyn: I believe it. Even without looking. 【语言点精讲】 1.

ACT 1-1 “领结总是这么难打吗？” 【故事梗概】 Susan和Harry今天要结婚了。Philip, Richard和Robbie在帮助Harry打领结。但是他们似乎都不知道领结的打法。 Harry: [He looks in the mirror at his bow tie.] It looks wrong. Philip: Hmmm. It is wrong. Richard: Are they always that difficult to make? Philip: The truth is…yes. I'll try again. Robbie: At this rate, the wedding will take place tomorrow. Philip: Not to worry. OK. Here we go. [He tries again to tie Harry's bow tie.] Harry: I'm worried, Philip. What if we can't tie the tie? Richard: [joking] If we can't tie the tie, then there can't be a wedding. Robbie: You'd better not make Harry any more nervous than he is. [to Harry ] Don't worry. We'll figure a way. [Grandpa enters the room.] Grandpa: How're you doing, fellas?

加强企业社会责任推动和谐社会建设 ——在“中国-瑞典企业社会责任高层论坛”上的演讲 Strengthening CSR for a Harmonious Society ---Speech at the Sino-Swedish CSR High-level Forum 商务部副部长于广洲 （2008年4月14日） By Yu Guangzhou, Vice Minister of Commerce April 14, 2008 尊敬的赖因费尔特首相， 各位来宾，女士们、先生们： Your Excellency Prime Minister Reinfeldt, Delegates, Ladies and gentlemen, 下午好！Good afternoon. 四月的北京，春意盎然，鲜花盛开。值此美好时刻，我们迎来了“中国—瑞典企业社会责任高层论坛”的召开。去年6月胡锦涛主席访问瑞典期间，商务部与瑞典外交部代表两国政府签署了《关于企业社会责任合作的谅解备忘录》，标志着两国在这一领域的合作正式启动，对促进两国经济的持续稳定健康发展具有十分重要的意义。今天，两国朋友们齐聚一堂，就企业社会责任开展深入交流，必将对两国企业社会责任建设产生积极的影响。 Here in Beijing in April, spring is high in the air and flowers are in full blossom. On this delightful day, we celebrate the convening of the
Sino-Swedish CSR High-level Forum. Last June during the visit of President Hu Jintao to Sweden, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce and Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs signed an MOU on Cooperation in CSR on behalf of their respective governments, which officially kicked off our bilateral CSR cooperation and was vitally important for the sustained, steady and sound development of our economies. Today, we have Chinese and Swedish friends gathered here to discuss in greater depth on the topic of CSR, which I believe will positively shape our future CSR collaboration. 企业社会责任运动自上世纪80年代兴起后，已经成为世界潮流。强调企业社会责任，就是要求企业对投资者负责的同时，对员工负责，对消费者负责，对商业伙伴负责，对环境和社会负责。国内外企业的成功经验表明，社会责任也是企业的品牌，是企业核心竞争力的组成部分，是企业长盛不衰的重要法宝。企业要生存和发展，就必须增强社会责任意识，积极履行社会义务。我们有理由相信，未来的企业竞争，将不再仅仅是产品的竞争、技术的竞争和人才的竞争，更是履行社会责任的竞争。“赠人玫瑰，手有余香”。企业在履行社会责任、促进社会和谐的同时，自身也会得到更大的发展。 Since the 1980s, CSR has gone from being a new term to a global trend. Putting emphasis on CSR means companies not only have to be responsible to their investors, but also to their employees, customers,

Near the Exit sign. Michelle: Thank you. Harry: Michelle is a little shy. Susan: I used to be that way when I was her age. Harry, if Michelle doesn't want to go, we don't have to. Harry: She'll be fine. Remember, I haven't dated anyone else since her mother died. This is a little difficult for her. Are you ready to go? Susan: Yes. But could you wait one minute? I have a call to make. Would you excuse me? Sam, get Mr. Levine at Toytown Stores on the telephone for me, please. Sam: Right. Hello. Susan Stewart calling Mr. Levine, please. He's on the phone. Susan: Mr. Levine, Susan Stewart. I find myself in an embarrassing situation. I made another lunch date for today and forgot to enter it in my appointment book. Can you and I meet for drinks tomorrow? I'd really appreciate it …Yes…Thank you…Tomorrow at five o'clock at the Biltmore. I'll see you then. Thank you, Mr. Levine.
