  MR. RAMIREZ: Come in, Arnold. Have a seat.
  H9 f$ T' w9 I( o; z/ c$ F  ARNOLD: Good morning.
1 y5 |) P9 V# Z' K" @  MR. RAMIREZ: Would you like something to drink?
4 ^' x% p' ?$ L7 }: Z3 ?1 }  ARNOLD: No, thank you. I just had two cups of coffee at my desk.6 r3 o) I# |7 Y! b1 I$ z/ N, w% M
  MR. RAMIREZ: So, you're a serious coffee drinker.  {4 D' g0 N3 P4 Q+ _0 T/ o
  ARNOLD: Yes, it keeps me going. Sometimes I think I'm addicted.
: r3 ]$ T" a& |, k' ~! q  MR. RAMIREZ: Well, coffee isn't such a bad thing.6 i/ c+ ^# H5 x& a. A8 _' O
  Everyone has to have something.
* O1 x, J& ]& W1 c2 |  For me, it's cigars. Are you a cigar smoker?
7 @! g+ ?* E' z% @# S3 m5 e7 t. e  ARNOLD: No, I've tried them. But I’m not really a smoker.
# R" c. N& f  f$ m- H" m: [  MR. RAMIREZ: Well, what would you like to talk to me about?% c# t* {6 j7 j3 C
  ARNOLD: I wanted to set up this meeting with you to discuss a little proposal.
1 b( H0 S% ?" F' Z. V  MR. RAMIREZ: I'm glad when people have new ideas around here. Tell me about it.# L9 P) n- u) f+ T
  ARNOLD: It is about the staff meetings.
7 g; n. J1 d1 F  You know how we have a staff meeting every Tuesday.- V7 ?+ t  x+ ~2 x- O" C: Z/ j; [
  MR. RAMIREZ: Yes.% Z* g1 Y) d, r7 x8 q
  ARNOLD: Well, I have been thinking about it.  W/ r  [) q5 [# J! s5 H' S
  And I believe we could do things more efficiently here.: W2 i2 `' m: B( U: L$ T
  MR. RAMIREZ: What do you suggest?7 W; H! ~5 \, S6 q2 R0 F
  ARNOLD: The way it is now, the staff from all four branches get together once a week.
2 B6 ~. f! r. E4 i7 V  We meet for one hour. But I think a lot of time is wasted in transportation.$ M( g) p" K; r3 @0 q
  MR. RAMIREZ: You mean because people have to go across town to get here.
! }' l2 a& w& D) ~  ARNOLD: Yes. Some people spend half of the morning on the road.
& c' t( d; E- k/ r# I  MR. RAMIREZ: That's true. But our staff meetings are very important, Arnold.
; l8 v8 u8 G. c) m+ _% Z  I don't know how we can function without them.
% W2 v' }* y) ~" h6 {  ARNOLD: I think they are important too.3 F2 G  ~( s. |, ^
  That's why I want people to have a better attitude about them.
# g. E4 b0 }5 k/ K! p# a3 T' P3 h  MR. RAMIREZ: I know a lot of people think the meetings aren't too useful.; C5 ], V- ?5 S" ]
  I'm aware of that.
" U. M' i- j$ q( B5 C( k  ARNOLD: Here's what I propose.4 ~' c; ~. V6 Q) l7 z/ v( a
  I think we should meet once every two weeks, but meet for ninety minutes or more.
/ R( Y: X5 ~/ m0 t( v5 b  MR. RAMIREZ: Well.
4 g. e& \4 w8 n9 a3 Y  ARNOLD: I also think the meetings should be more focused.; ?! u  M: }" n( T0 C
  And I would be willing to take responsibility for that.
6 N: |/ ~' G' o8 _+ A4 K- F; A6 G  MR. RAMIREZ: You mean you want to run the meetings?
- E) ?+ N' I; t9 r# V$ w3 N" q/ N  ARNOLD: No, not really run them. But I could help organize them.
( K8 j9 o2 E& f! a+ Q8 y  I could discuss meeting topics with you, and then prepare a schedule for each meeting.
: m3 ]! v- A* N! K3 T3 q, Z  I could then send an e-mail to all the staff to explain the coming meeting.7 A! ~3 c1 m/ w) U! ?; }( m
  This way the meetings would become more focused, and people would prepare better.' ?4 R3 ?2 b/ s. V
  MR. RAMIREZ: Hmm. But we would meet every two weeks.0 q# b0 B# \5 |8 L; v' P4 D; F" v$ k" A
  ARNOLD: I really think it would work.2 n* }9 e3 f+ E* X" o7 r
  The meetings could be longer, and better organized.- E5 p+ T7 W6 R! l; J1 W! i1 g
  MR. RAMIREZ: I am not against the idea, Arnold./ |2 ]: Y; e; T* J3 b! A. f5 e
  It may really be more efficient, as you say. I'll tell you what we can do.6 D7 ]* N5 I$ {0 ]2 @
  Why don't we try your proposal for a month, and see how it works.
7 b8 r1 R- s) ^/ `( q# ?1 R  ARNOLD: Excellent. I would be happy to get started on it.7 h7 w! g+ w5 T- c4 A' [. }
  MR. RAMIREZ: I will call the managers.
) ?) B: S' a6 r1 `1 }  Then tomorrow I'll tell you when we can schedule our first meeting in this “new style.”

向老板建议MakingSuggestionsToTheBoss

  仑米先生:进来,阿诺。请坐。
$ ]6 |- U% I. g! {0 _  阿诺:早安。  b/ _( D2 V) m" {
  仑米先生:你要喝点什么吗?& f! X' v$ v, Q: E
  阿诺:不了,谢谢你。我才喝了两杯咖啡。! n; ?) E/ b1 B
  仑米先生:所以,你是一个严重的咖啡爱好者。
8 D7 s$ A3 h8 f( j, [3 A! ^  阿诺:是的,它让我持续前进。有时候我认为我有点上瘾。1 K, u- I7 U0 m
  仑米先生:嗯,咖啡也不是一个坏事情。
# m% v* S! v# w; m$ V  每个人都要有所喜好。  T3 d4 N* B( A9 d7 i8 @
  像我,就是雪茄。你抽雪茄吗?
7 p, x$ B' a! `+ Z- L  阿诺:不,我尝试过。但我并不是一个吸烟爱好者。# Y: x2 Z1 c3 i9 q$ T6 f2 a
  仑米先生:嗯,你想跟我说些什么呢?$ a$ w; t5 L' h" ?
  阿诺:我想借着这个会谈跟你讨论一个提案。* R3 U3 G8 ~+ P) m: I9 g
  仑米先生:我很高兴这里能有人提些新计划,告诉我是什么。1 l' ^8 a8 v: W) o8 l
  阿诺:是有关公司重要干部的会议。; O" X0 E- _! Z, N4 ]2 ?
  你知道我们每个星期二的干部会议。( M3 _& p$ l7 E$ T3 N. N# r; {
  仑米先生:是的。
* Y$ |+ y- R' U  B/ I2 x  阿诺:嗯,我一直在想。
3 X6 V2 J, \& P  A  我相信我们可以做得更有效率些。/ O  @* |; {1 m) d7 k5 N! g- ]! C
  仑米先生:那你的建议是?
1 a  Z1 W( N3 `, ^+ ^2 H8 ^4 v  阿诺:现在的方法是,四个分公司的干部每一周都会来这里一次。
. P* Z  U& k$ h0 n, U$ c$ n7 Q  我们开会一小时,但我认为绝大部份的时间都浪费在交通上。6 q1 p0 c# u: U4 |$ U
  仑米先生:你的意思是因为大家都要横越整个城市到这儿。
* x. m( T! d  [6 h9 K/ Y  阿诺:是的,有些人花了一个早上在路程上。+ x: [% |+ I; b
  仑米先生:没有错。但我们干部的会议是很重要的,阿诺。
, b4 H# h9 v; C# g( Z- l# f' k  我不知道没有他们我们如何能运作。0 G* b. h1 E3 q" _/ g% k" d: ]
  阿诺:我也认为他们很重要。& O* n' U+ C! t. g) ]
  那就是为什么我要大家对会谈能有更好的态度。5 E7 j4 m. ]4 G6 M& a! i
  仑米先生:我知道有一些人认为会谈并没有太大的用处。8 R0 h& C1 S. G
  我知道这个的。
6 A; @2 |% d0 p  F2 x  阿诺:这是我的建议。
8 C0 x' Z7 H+ Q4 t) V% w  我认为我们应该每两个星期开一次会,但一次开九十分钟或是加长。, ^; K* x. N+ \( Y; |7 ?
  仑米先生:这个。
* O+ E; B/ w5 p/ O. O0 ~  阿诺:我同时也认为议题应更明确。7 Y) Z$ d7 o$ C8 i4 P3 g
  我愿意对这件事负责。) g1 _" T" C) k( z
  仑米先生:你的意思是你要主持会议?
' [) r" y7 n" i! d1 Y  阿诺:不,并不是要主持会议。但我可以帮忙筹组。
1 r7 ^1 K5 z2 l- O, R  a, s% N  我可以跟你讨论议题,然后准备每次会议的时程表。8 M2 u- e! X( o% q. X: k' X
  我可以寄电子邮件给所有的干部解说下个会议。
1 @- h/ b/ [8 m7 `" I2 E* T  这样的话会议就能更明确,大家也能准备得更充分。' W6 v0 S1 F# P# y* q# y0 m
  仑米先生:嗯,但我们会每两个星期开一次会。5 m, C$ S  K8 t% l
  阿诺:我真的认为这是可行的。: o7 Z  ^% z& O( @) o
  会议时间可以加长,而且更有组织。
/ n7 o' v5 v& z0 ?( ~  仑米先生:我并不是反对这个主意,阿诺。
  x$ N3 ]6 }- C4 H  这或许会更有效率,就像你说的。我告诉你我们能怎么做。
" T1 }( a% K7 t% |. z  我们何不试试你的提案一个月,我们再来看成效。
/ U# Y$ f2 L  ?% L* F3 M  阿诺:太好了,我已经迫不及待了。
0 H6 P6 x6 O" x, v  仑米先生:我会通知所有的经理。
! ]5 a$ O7 s6 J; R  然后明天我会告诉你何时我们可以规划第一次的会议使用这个“新作风”。
