planning a business luncheon預(yù)定商業(yè)午餐
    One of my co-workers, Betty, was retiring this month after working for the company 23 years. I was put in charge of planning a retirement lunch in her honor at a restaurant nearby. The company was picking up the tab and it was up to me to set a day and time. After asking the people in the department and finding out their availability, I called the restaurant to make a reservation. 我的同事貝蒂,在為公司工作23年后將在本月退休了。我被指派在公司附近找個飯店開個午餐會為她的退休慶賀一下。公司會買單但我來決定午餐的時間。在咨詢了部門中的同事都什么時候有時間后,我打電話給飯店去預(yù)定午餐。
