A) A list of the typical excuses for not being done on time:
My dog ate the report. Oh, you needed that this week? You're not the boss of me. Put it on the pile, I'll get to it whenever.
一些在未能及時(shí)完成工作時(shí)常用的借口：我的狗把報(bào)告吃了。噢，你這星期就需要呀? 你不是我的老板。把它放在那堆文件上，我總是會(huì)做的。
B) A list of promises to do better: It won't happen again. I'll get right on it. That was a special case, I assure you. It will be on your desk before you know it.
一些要改過的承諾：這種事不會(huì)再發(fā)生了。我馬上就做。我向你保證，那是特殊情況。很快就把它放到您辦公桌上。Diologue
Molly : Do you have the report finished?
Gordon: I finished it yesterday, but my dog ate it.
Molly : Excuses, excuses. How about the weekly newsletter, is that done?
Gordon: Sorry to say a virus erased my hard drive.
Molly : You must be kidding? I am fed up with your poor work habits.
Gordon: I'll re-do it ASAP.
Molly : While you are re-doing that, I need another copy of the monthly numbers, this paper is blank.
Gordon: That's because the printer is on the blink. Some times it works, and sometimes it doesn't.
Molly : So many excuses. Are you slacking off in the office?
Gordon: Of course not.
Molly : How about the time I caught you sleeping?
Gordon: It won't happen again, I promise.
Molly : Well, get back to work.
Gordon: I'll get those reports on your desk ASAP.
莫莉：你的報(bào)告完成了嗎?
戈登：我昨天就做完了，可是我的狗把它吃掉了。
莫莉：借口，借口。那每周的電子雜志呢，做完了嗎?
戈登：不好意思，病毒把我硬盤的文件弄沒了。
莫莉：你一定是在開玩笑吧?我受夠了你差勁兒的工作習(xí)慣。
戈登：我會(huì)盡快重新做。
莫莉：你重新做的時(shí)候，再給我做一份每月的數(shù)據(jù)，這張紙是空的。
戈登：那是因?yàn)榇蛴C(jī)壞了，有的時(shí)候能用，有的時(shí)候不能用。
莫莉：這么多的借口，你是不是在辦公室偷懶呀?
戈登：當(dāng)然不是。
莫莉：那我發(fā)現(xiàn)你睡覺的事怎么解釋?
戈登：我保證，這種事不會(huì)再發(fā)生了。
莫莉：好吧，回去工作吧。
戈登：我會(huì)盡快把那些報(bào)告放在你的桌子上。
