艾米丽，你能腾出几分钟吗？

恩，我想告诉你我辞职了。

A: It's complicated. But basically it boils down to one thing. This company isdownsizing and I can't continue working for a company that may let me go. 

原因很复杂，不过简单说来这是迟早的事。这家公司在缩减开支，我不能等到公司解雇我我才走。

可是，他们不可能解雇你！你是这里最资深的经理之一！

恩，坦白说，还有一个原因，我有更好的选择了。

B: Well, that's great news. Congratulations. Where will you be located?

那家公司总部设在纽约，不过我要打理和海外公司的买卖，会经常飞回来的。

你要走的话我会很难过。不过看来你找到更好的机会了。

A: I have. I feel lucky. I look forward to dealing with overseas companies and at the same time having a chance to use English more.

是的，我觉得很幸运，我一直希望能同海外公司做生意，并借此机会锻炼英语。

B: I'm sorry to bring this up now, but would it be possible for you to write me a letter of recommendation before you go?

我很抱歉现在向你提个要求，你在走之前可以帮我写一封推荐信吗？

A: Of course I can. In fact, if there are any other job opportunities at this new company. I'll recommend you personally.

当然可以。实际上，如果这家新公司有合适的工作机会的话，我个人会推荐你。
