Mr. Barnes: I'll be a lot better after this meeting is over. I hope you two have done your homework because this is a huge deal.

I'm counting on you. 这个会议结束后我才会觉得好一些。 我希望你们两个完成了工作,因为这是笔大生意。 如果我们能让王氏集团相信我们公司,那么更大的电脑公司将会随之出现。 我没有必要告诉你们中的任何一个那意味着数以百万计的钞票。 我就指望你们了。

I put you on this assignment because you are my two best men; I know you won't disappoint me. Well, let's hear about your ideas for the presentation. Goddard, would you like to start? 我最好是能 如果你们俩做得好的话,到时候我不会忘记提升你们的。 我分配你们这个任务,是因为你们俩是最好的; 我知道你们不会让我失望的。 好吧。让我来听听你们关于这个陈述的意见。 你愿意开始吗?

James: I think it might be best to let Mr. Dawson begin; he is the expert at sales. 我想最好是让先生先开始 he's the expert at sales.
