Denise: Oh, why is Tom getting down on one knee?

Paul: I expect he’s dropped one of his contact lenses.

Tom: No it’s not that. Anna, I’d like to ask you something… err… will you… will you marry me?

Anna: What?!

Denise: I don’t believe it!

Narrator: 唉呀，真是左右为难。Anna 眼前有两个非常重要的问题在等着她回答。她会接受这个工作成为 Tip Top 贸易公司最年轻的经理吗？Anna 会和 Tom 结婚吗？我们再来听一遍 Mr Socrates 给 Anna 工作机会时用到的语言：

This promotion recognises your achievements at the company.

It’s an opportunity of a lifetime.

You would be my right-hand man.

Narrator: 如果 Anna 接受这个工作，她可以用以下的表达：

I’d be delighted to accept. Thank you.

When would I start?

Could we discuss the terms and conditions of the new job?

Narrator: 下面我们赶快来听听 Anna 的回答是什么。

Anna: …oh Tom, I don’t know what to say. It’s come as a bit of a shock. Can I have some time to think about it?

Tom: I suppose.

Paul: Well, while you think about that, I’ve got some good news. I’ve been offered a new job.

Denise: That’s fantastic news Paul. What is it?

Paul: It’s to be Head Taster at a company called Better Biscuits.
