英語(yǔ)情景口語(yǔ):會(huì)議議程
M: Please let me see the draft of what you have put together for Monday's meeting.
F: I'm still working on the agenda, there will be a lot to go over on Monday. Here's what I've got so far.
M: Do you think we will spend more than twenty minutes in the opening? I think it should be pretty simple.
F: It shouldn't take too long, but there will be a lot of dignitaries at the meeting. In the opening exercises, it is protocol to spend a little time to recoginise them. I reckon it should take about half an hour before we can even get to the minutes.
M: Really? Well, at least the minutes shouldn't take too long to review. There shouldn't be a lot of active business left over from last meeting.
F: True. After review and acceptance of the minutes, we have several committee reports. Old business won't take up too much time, but sometimes the committee delegates can be a little verbose… Is there where we can limit their time?
M: We can set a five minute report time with a three minute question and answer afterwards.
F: That's not good. Q&A always stretch out the time, because people usually get stuck on some irrelevent point, we'll lose control of the meeting if we open it up to questions too early.
M: True. Well, imposing an eight minute limit on the committee reports then, we'll save Q&A until right before closed session.
F: Sounds good. Overall, we can probably keep the meeting under two hours.
M: Let's hope!
譯文：
請(qǐng)讓我看下你起草的周一會(huì)議議程安排.
我還在弄會(huì)議議程,周一要有很多事情要做.這是我目前已經(jīng)完成的部分.
你認(rèn)為我們開幕式發(fā)言需要20多分鐘嗎?我認(rèn)為應(yīng)該非常簡(jiǎn)短.
是不應(yīng)該花很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間,但是會(huì)上有很多高管出席.開幕式上,從禮節(jié)上講需要花點(diǎn)兒時(shí)間讓大家認(rèn)識(shí)下他們.我計(jì)算過應(yīng)該需要半個(gè)小時(shí)左右才能進(jìn)入會(huì)議紀(jì)律環(huán)節(jié).
真的嗎?那好吧,至少不要花太多時(shí)間評(píng)議會(huì)議記錄.上次會(huì)議之后應(yīng)該沒有留下太多的后續(xù)工作.
是這樣.在評(píng)議和接受會(huì)議記錄后,我們還有幾份委員會(huì)的報(bào)告要看.遺留問題不會(huì)占太多時(shí)間,但有時(shí)委員會(huì)代表會(huì)很啰嗦…有沒有辦法限制一下他們的時(shí)間?
我們可以設(shè)定報(bào)告時(shí)間為5分鐘,隨后是3分鐘的問答時(shí)間.
這樣不好.問答總會(huì)拉長(zhǎng)時(shí)間,因?yàn)槿藗兺ǔ?huì)就無關(guān)的`論點(diǎn)說個(gè)沒完.如果我們會(huì)上過早讓大家提問,我們會(huì)失控的.
確實(shí)如此.那我們給委員會(huì)報(bào)告限定8分鐘,這樣把問答時(shí)間拖到會(huì)議結(jié)束之前.
這樣還不錯(cuò).總的來說,我們很可能把會(huì)議控制在兩小時(shí)之內(nèi).
希望如此!
