  Change a meeting

  变更约会

  A: Mr. Brown, I hope I'm not disturbing you.

  布朗先生,希望我没有定打扰您。

  B: No, not at all.

  不,没有。

  A: I must make apologies. I won't be able to keep my appointment with you tomorrow morning. Unforeseen circumstances compel me to leave for New York tomorrow morning, and I'll be gone for a week. I'm afraid I've brought you too much trouble.

  很抱歉明天上午我不能如约与您会谈。有件意外事情我不得不明天上午去巴黎,恐怕得一周的时间。恐怕我给您带来很多麻烦。

  B: Never mind. It's understandable. Do you want to cancel the appiontment?

  不要紧。可以理解。那您想取消这次会谈吗?

  A: No. I wonder if we could postpone the meeting to next Thursday.

  不,我想知道能否推迟到下周四。

  B: But I've got a very tight schedule next Thursday. I might not be able to make it.

  可是下周四我的日程安排得满满的。很难再重新安排。

  A: How about next Friday?

  那下周五怎么样?

  B: Oh, Friday is OK.

  哦,周五可以。

  

A: Will the afternoon suit you?

  那下午您方便吗?

  B: Yes, the afternoon will be just as good.

  是的,下午可以。

  A: Then shall we make it at three o'clock?

  那我们就定在下午3点钟吧。

  B: Good. Three o'clock at my office.

  好的。3点钟在我的办公室见面。

  A: OK, that's settled.

  好的,就这么定了。

  重点讲解:

  “compel”意思是“使某人做某事,强迫”。

  Eg. We cannot compel you to do it, but we think you should.

  我们不能强迫你去做,但认为你应该做。
