N: But...now comes the hard part. We're going to need to do a lot of preparation work before we leave. 但是……現(xiàn)在還有一些棘手的事。我們需要在走之前做大量的準(zhǔn)備工作。
E: I was thinking about a new brochure. I'm not really fond of the old one...It looks a little drab. 我在想重新設(shè)計(jì)一個(gè)小冊子。我不是很喜歡舊的宣傳冊……他看上去太乏味了。

M: That's one thing about trade fairs; there are so many items on display it's easy for our products to blend into the background. We need to think about how to arrange our booth so we don't get lost in the crowd. 關(guān)于商品展覽會有一件事，博覽會展臺多，會讓人眼花繚亂。我們需要思考如何安排我們的展臺，如何能找得到。

Mark說，博覽會上展臺多，讓人看得眼花繚亂，自己的產(chǎn)品很容易就會淹沒在汪洋大海之中。在這里，Mark用了兩種說法，一個(gè)是 to blend into the background，另外一個(gè)是to get lost in the crowd，意思都是跟別人差不多，放那兒就找不著了。
Elaine說，應(yīng)該讓設(shè)計(jì)展臺的人想辦法，to make our booth stand out，讓我們的展臺與眾不同。Nick同意，決定派兩班人馬去參展，一組人做門面，be the face of our operation；另外一組人提供后勤保障。
