　　商务英语口语对话 1:Faxes传真

　　Dialogue one

　　M: Can you have the briefs from the Anderson firm's lawyer on my desk by tomorrow morning. There are quite a few very time sensitive matters with this case. I'm afraid I can't wait any longer.

　　F: Getting those Anderson briefs has been harder than you can imagine. I have tried to contact their lawyer many times. But every time I call, his secretary says he’s in a meeting or out of the office or away on business. I am beginning to think he is trying to avoid me.

　　M: That's highly possible. He knows if we miss our filing deadline, we don’t stand a chance to compete against them for the bid. Try to get a hold of him again. Give him a call and see if he can fax them first thing.

　　F: What if I can't speak to him directly?

　　M: Ask his secretary to fax them. Its the same thing. Have them faxed over with a copy also faxed to Martin’s office.

　　F: How do I find Martin’s fax number? Is he in your rollerdesk?

　　M: No, but you can also call their office and ask the secretary to give you their fax number. I’ll email you their office number later today.

　　F: Ok, I'll get on it first thing.

　　M: Be sure you do, I need those briefs ASAP

　　Dialogue two

　　M:Did you put this morning's faxes on my desk?I'm waiting for some urgent faxes from headquaters,I'm pretty sure they came in last night.

　　F:Evething that came in the office fax machine last night is all on your desk,but I noticed that some of faxes came through pretty blurred,maybe you take a look at them,if the copy is unreadble,I'll call then and ask them to refax.

　　M:Yeah,you're going to have to call them and get them to be refax. These copies are so dark. I can't make out any of the words.

　　F:What about that one?

　　M:This one?This one is so light and I can barely read it. How can that be?

　　F:You know, I think the fax machine is out of toner. I can change the toner cartridge. That should solve the problem.

　　M:Yes,but this one will have to be refaxed as well. And look, there's about 3 pages missing. It looks like the fax machine ate half of my important faxes,and ones that made it through are so blurred or too light. They are unreadable.

　　F:I guess the fax machine is out of paper too. Don't worry,I'll have someone look at it this afternoon,and in the meantime,I'll have your documents refaxed to our other fax machine.
