Courteney:Which of these vendors do you think we should go with?

柯特妮： 你認(rèn)為我們應(yīng)該選擇哪個(gè)供應(yīng)商？

Dante: I'm really hesitant to make a decision until we've pondered the options a little longer. We don't want to make any rash decisions.

丹蒂： 我要思考一段時(shí)間后再做決定，現(xiàn)在我有點(diǎn)猶豫不決。我們不想草率做出決定。

Courteney: We've sat on this for long enough, don't you think? I know you're of two minds about whether we should be switching vendors in the middle of the year, but I think it's the right move. We had sound reasons for doing this, remember?

柯特妮： 我們擱置這個(gè)問題的時(shí)間已經(jīng)夠長了，你不覺得嗎？我知道在年中更換供應(yīng)商的問題上你還心存猶豫，但我覺得這是正確的舉措。我們有正當(dāng)?shù)睦碛蛇@么做，記得嗎？

Dante: Yes, yes, I know that it wasn't a split-second decision, but whether it'll really save us money is debatable.

丹蒂： 是的，是的，我知道那不是個(gè)即時(shí)決定，關(guān)鍵是在節(jié)省資金方面還有爭議。

Courteney: I have to disagree with you there. We've both seen the reports and I don't think there are any ifs, ands, or buts about it. We're going to save money.

柯特妮： 在這一點(diǎn)上我必須反對你。我們都看過報(bào)告，我認(rèn)為不會有任何“如果”“但是”存在。我們肯定會省到錢。

Dante: Okay, I'm willing to make a tentative decision to go with GreatDeal Corp. as our new vendor, as long as that decision isn't set in stone. We'll revisit this decision in six months to see if they're working out.

丹蒂： 好吧，那我就初步?jīng)Q定和 GreatDeal 公司合作吧，不過這個(gè)決定也不是一成不變的。我們有六個(gè)月時(shí)間來重新審視這個(gè)決定，看事情進(jìn)展得是否順利。

Courteney: I can live with that. Now, can we discuss my raise?

柯特妮： 我接受你的決定。現(xiàn)在，我們來談?wù)劷o我升職的事情？

Dante: Raise? That's definitely something I'll need to ponder a lot more.

丹蒂： 升職？這件事我肯定需要更長時(shí)間來考慮。
