Narrator: Hello again. 这可真令人兴奋！经理 Paul 派 Anna 和 Tom 去法国，希望能拿到一家大客户的塑料水果订单。不过 Tom 想的只是工作吗？
Tom: Really? What… me and Anna… to France?
Paul: Yes but make sure you get that contract signed. We need the business.
Tom: Yeah, yeah, of course. Are we staying overnight?
Paul: There’s no money for that – just get there and come straight back. Oh and could you bring back those nice French biscuits that have in the duty-free shop?
Tom: Sure. So we’re off on holiday together are we?!
Anna: No! But I’ve got to book the flights online, can you help me please?
Tom: It’s not my thing. I’m sure Denise will help. I need to go and pack for this trip.
Denise: (On the phone) Yes Marge… in the cupboard… envelopes apparently… Tom and Anna… oh here she is… got to go Marge… bye. Hello Anna, everything OK?
Anna: Sort of. I’ve got to go to France… with Tom.
Denise: Yes, I know. I thought you’d be pleased to go with Tom, after your time in the stationery cupboard with him!
Anna: I was just finding an envelope Denise. Anyway, I’m worried about booking the flights online. I usually book flights at a travel agent's.
Denise: It’s company policy now – we have to do everything online – even my food shopping but don’t tell Paul.
Anna: Oh right, so where shall I begin?
Denise: Pull up a chair Anna and we’ll log on. Right, let’s start with the British Airlines website. There. London to Marseille. What is the outbound date?
Anna: Going out tomorrow, back tomorrow.
Denise: Business class or Economy class? I think we’ll say Economy.
Anna: That’s cheaper I guess. What’s this mean? Flexible or fixed?
Denise: A flexible ticket means you can change your flight but a fixed one means you can’t – and that’s cheaper so we'll choose that one. I’ll book you on the 8am flight from Heathrow and flying home at 6pm. I just need to type in your full names now and select your seats. Window or aisle?
Anna: I’ll what?
Denise: No Anna. A seat by the aisle or by the window?
Anna: Oh, an aisle seat please, Denise.
Denise: Good. What’s your frequent flyer number?
Anna: Oh, I don’t have one of those.
Tom: What’s that? Frequent flyer number? Here I’ve got a gold status card, can you stick my number in.
Denise: Gold status! Where did you get that?
Tom: I’ve flown loads of time for business – I’ve done deals all around the World.
Narrator: 他才不是呢！花公司的钱到处旅游，晒太阳，可是正事儿没办多少！
Denise: Hmm, really. Right I just need to pay now… using the company account, of course.
Tom: Cool. Now, what do you think of my sunglasses?
Anna: Lovely Tom. Denise has booked you a window seat OK?
Tom: No! Sorry, I can’t sit by the window… I’m… errr.
Denise: Yes, Tom?
Tom: I mean, it’s only polite that the lady sits by the window.
Denise: Really?!
Narrator: 这象什么话？但愿他能帮到 Anna 的忙，可别是倒忙！好吧，让我们再复习一下订机票时会用到的语言…
What is the outbound and return date? 往返日程是什么？
Do you want to fly business or economy? 你想要商务舱还是经济舱？
Do you want a fixed or flexible ticket? 你想要日期固定的机票还是允许更改日期的机票？
Would you like a window or aisle seat? 你想坐靠窗的位子还是靠走廊的位子？
Have you got a frequent flyer number? 你有飞行常客积分卡吗？
Denise: There you go you two, your e-ticket. Now, don’t forget your passports.
Tom: Thanks Denise. Hey Anna, I’m so pleased we’re on this trip together – it’ll be nice to spend some time with you.
Anna: Yes, and to do some business and really show Paul we are his best employees.
Tom: Oh yeah, of course… I just wondered…
Anna: Yes?
Tom: Is there any chance I could sit in the aisle seat?
Narrator: 我觉得 Anna 这次行程可会碰到不少麻烦。不知道旅程到底会怎样？我们下次节目再看吧！
