 Boss: That's right. Then I went to Munich and came back on Saturday evening?
 Susan: You are lucky?
 Boss: Lucky?
 Susan: To travel like that.
 Boss:It is a business trip, Sue. I have to talk about business most of the time.
 Susan: But at least you talk business in Paris.

 （苏珊的老板要出差，苏珊正在和他核对日程表。）
 老板：噢，你来啦，苏珊。都 准备好了吗？
 苏珊：你出差的准备准备工作吗？都好了。你星期一上午八点动身，先去巴黎，然后星期二晚上去汉堡。在汉堡呆到星期四晚上，然后去慕尼黑，星期六晚上从慕尼黑回来。
 老板：很好。
 苏珊：这和上次出差一样，对不？一模一样。是的——我记得。你上次星期一八点去巴黎，然后到了汉堡，一直呆到星期四晚上。
 老板：是那么回事。然后我到了慕尼黑，星期六晚上回来的。
 苏珊：你真走运！
 老板：走运？
 苏珊：能这样旅行。
 老板：苏，你知道，这是因公出差，大部分时间我得谈生意。
 苏珊：但至少你是在巴黎谈生意呀。

 注1. 老板苏珊走来说：Ah, there you are， Susan. 这里 there you are 用来开始一个话题，意思是“噢，你来啦。”“噢，你在这里。”作为打招呼的口头语，以避免口气上过于生硬。
 注2. for your business trip? 是一个不完整句，To travel like that. 也是一个不完整句，口语中这样不完整句很多，要根据谈话的上下文理解，这两句完整的话应是：
 Is everything ready for your business trip?
 You are lucky to travel like that.
 注3. 两个有用的句型：to be ready for (sometuing).（准备做什么事）to be lucky to (do something).（能做什么事，真幸运）例：
 Is everything ready for the outing?（郊游的准备工作都就绪了吗？）
 We are ready for the meeting.（我们准备开会了。）
 He is lucky to go to Paris.（他能去巴黎，真走运。）
 注4. 谈论已安排的日程计划，虽是将来的事，但常用一般现在时。如：
 You leave on Monday morning at eight.
 注5. Sue 是 Susan 的昵称。在家人以及亲密的朋友、同事之间可用昵称。如：Katherine 昵称：Kate 或 Kathy；Daniel 昵称：Dan；Robert 昵称：Bob 或 Bobby；Thomas 昵称：Tom。

2. It's going to be a quiet week.

 (Susan's boss is asking her about her plans for next week.)
 Boss: Well, what are you going to do next week, Sue?
 Susan: Oh, nothing much. There's a concert at the Festival Hall on Wednesday,. I'm going to that with my sister. And there's a film I want to see, so I'm going to the cinema one evening. There are my evening classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and there's a teltvistion programme I want to see on Monday. It's going to be a quiet week. Not like you — Paris, Hamburg, Munich. I wish it was my business trip.
 Boss: So do I, Sue. So do I.

 老板：苏，你下星期打算干些什么？
 苏珊：噢，没多少事。星期三在节目大厅有一个音乐会风打算和我妹妹一起去。还有个电影我想看，所以有一个晚上我打算去看电影。每逢星期二、四我在夜校上课，星期一有一个电视节目我想看。下个星期很冷清，不象你——巴黎、汉堡、慕尼黑。但愿是我出差就好了。
 老板：我也这么想啊，苏。我也这么想啊。
