Conversation 2
M: Hello, University Books. Tim Weber speaking.
W: Hi, Tim, this is Ruth.
M: Oh, hi, Ruth. What's up?
W: Well,(4)the Student Federation needs a couple of volunteers to give guided tours to the new students during orientation next week. Would you be able to help out? ( Ruth需要Tim做一名新生向导志愿者。)
M: That depends on the day you had in mind. I'm working here full-time before classes begin. It's really busy now, with all the textbook orders coming in, but I do have some time off.
W: What about Saturday? (5)Most new students arrive at the weekend,(大部分新生在周末到达,而非周六。)
M: Sorry, I have to work all day Saturday. How about Thursday or Friday? I've got both mornings free.
W:(7—1)I don't have the schedule on me... Ken's got it. Maybe you can set something up with him.(Ruth不确定周四和周五上午是否安排Tim来做向导,需要Ken和Tim来协调。)
M: I'm only be able to spare a couple of hours though.(Tim只能勾出几个小时的空余时间来做向导。)
W: No problem. (7-2)I'll ask Ken to get in touch with you later today.(Ken 有向导的时间安排,之后会联系Tim。)Will you be at this number?
M: Yeah, till for... Look. I've got to go. I have to get all the orders out before I leave today.
W: OK, go back to your work. Thanks Tim. Bye.
