Kim：Hi Peter, can I talk to you for a moment. I just heard the cookie factory downtown is going out of business.
金姆:你好！彼特，我可以和你聊聊吗？我刚刚听说市中心的饼干工厂要破产啦。
Peter：Where did you hear that?
彼得:你从哪儿听说的？
Kim：Sara told me.
金姆:莎沙告诉我的。
Peter：I'm not sure that's true. I haven't heard anything about it.
彼得: 我不知道那是不是真的，我什么都没听说
Kim ：She said that they have already started to lay people off.
金姆: 她说他们已经开始裁员啦。
Peter：Doesn't your father work there?
彼得: 你爸爸不是在那儿上班吗？
Kim ：Yes, I'm really worried he might get laid off, he just started to work there about three months ago. What do you think I should do?
金姆: 是的，我真的很担心他，我怕他被裁掉，他三个月前才刚刚开始在那里上班的，你觉得我现在应该怎么办？
Peter：I'd talk to your father.
彼得: 我要告诉你爸爸。
Kim：Yeah, but if there was something wrong I don't think he'd tell me. He doesn't like to upset me, but I really would like to know what's going on.
金姆: 是的，但是如果有什么不好的事情，我觉得他不会告诉我的，因为他不喜欢让我担心，但是我真的想知道到底发生了什么事。
Peter：So what are you gonna do?
彼得: 那你准备怎么做？
Kim ：Aren't you good friends with the president of that company?
金姆: 你和那个公司的老板不是好朋友吗？
Peter：Yes, we use to work together at a different company about five years ago.
彼得: 是的，大概五年前我们一起在另外一家公司上班。
Kim ：Maybe you could call him and see what's going on.
金姆: 或许你可以打电话给他，看看发生了什么事情。
Peter：Well, I don't know. I guess I could. It's pretty late now, but I'll call him in the morning.
彼得: 嗯，我不太清楚。我觉得我可以打电话给他。但现在已经很晚啦，但我明天早上可以打电话给他。
Kim ：OK, thanks so much.
金姆: 好的，非常感谢。
