先輩教員のキースが新任のベロニカに授業の様子を尋ねています。
Hi, Veronica. How are your classes going?
Hi, Keith. Pretty well, thanks. But I’m finding the amount of preparation a bit overwhelming.
This is your first year, so it’s natural. Just keep in mind that Rome wasn’t built in a day, OK?
OK. I guess I’ll have to learn how to pace myself, right?
Exactly. Having a healthy work-life balance is important. Speaking of which, how about going for a drink after work?
Great idea!
衣料品店の従業員セジュンが帰ろうとするとミレイが呼び止めます。
Well, I’m ready to go home, Mirei.
OK, but don’t forget to put up the sales poster in the shop window tomorrow. We need to attract lots of customers.
I will. First thing in the morning. They’re in the storage room, right?
Yes. Also, make sure you mop the floor. We have been getting some complaints from customers.
Really? I mop the floor every day. People are too picky.
Maybe. But the customer is king, remember!
ファッションデザイナーである、フランクとフィオナが話しています。
Something is not quite right with this dress, but I can’t put my finger on it. Perhaps I should…
No, Frank. Please don’t touch it. It’s perfect.
But look at the waistline. It’s too high, don’t you think?
Not at all. It looks fine to me. The dress flows beautifully.
What if I added some sequins?
No way. Trust me. Keep it simple. Leave it as it is.
OK. Your intuition is usually spot-on.
Thanks.
マンション居住者の会議。司会のヒロにマリリンが、隣人の飼う犬の鳴き声について苦情を言います。
Are there any other issues we need to discuss?
I hate to bring this up, but my neighbor’s dog barks late at night, and we can’t get enough sleep.
Why don’t you just talk to your neighbor?
He’s never home. I know I can always rely on you for sound advice. Have you got any ideas?
I suggest leaving a note under his door. It should be politely worded, though.
Can you help me write it?
Sure.
