　　对话练习 英：

　　In this conversation, Jean Simmons is going on her first business trip. She’s talking to a co-worker, Kyle Mathews, about it.

　　Jean: Hey Kyle, guess what! The boss is sending me to the West coast for a marketing seminar next month.

　　Kyle: Ah hah, you must be happy. You’ve been itching to go on a business trip for months.

　　Jean: Yeah, and he said there’ll be more coming up, so I should get a corporate card.Problem is, I don’t know how to proceed, and I didn’t want the boss to know that. Can you fill me in?

　　Kyle: Sure, no problem. First, go see the secretary and tell her where you’re going and when. She’ll arrange for transportation and hotel through our travel agent, and give you the tickets and itinerary in a few days. At the same time, ask her for an application form for the card.

　　Jean: Will I use the card for everything?

　　Kyle: No, we have company credit arrangements with some major airlines and hotels. For this trip, you’ll probably only use it for food. Not all restaurants accept the card, so you may have to pay cash.

　　Jean: Do I pay out of my own pocket?

　　Kyle: Afraid so. We used to have cash advances, but the company stopped that when they started issuing cards.
