This is the second in a two-part Business English Pod series about an internal meeting to consider a proposal.
这是2节商务英语播客的第2节，将要学习到在内部会议中考虑提议。

As we saw in the last episode, this type of meeting can be similar to a negotiation. People with different opinions sit around the table and try to convince each other that their idea is the best. So in this situation, you need to be very persuasive and provide good reasons for your recommendations.
正如在上节课中所看到的那样，这种会议和协商很类似。围坐在会议桌旁的人们都有不同的想法，并要试图劝说他人这节主意是最好的。在这种状况中，你需要有说服力并为所提的建议提供好的理由。

In this lesson, we’ll look at how to express doubt, admit risk, confirm support, and speculate about possible future situations or scenarios. We’ll also cover language that you can use to highlight any concessions you might have won in a previous negotiation.
在这节课中，我们来看下如何表达怀疑，承认风险，肯定支持并对未来或方案进行深思。我们也会学到可以用来加强在先前协商中获得的让步。

In today’s dialog, we’ll rejoin Steve and his managers as they discuss a proposal for language training. Steve is recommending a blended training model that would combine classroom sessions with online training.
在今天的对话中，我们重新加入Steve和经理们共同探讨语言训练的提议，Steve推荐将上课和在线训练相结合的混合训练模式。

Listening Questions:
1. Which advantage of online training does Steve focus on?
2. What is the main concern of the two female managers?
3. If the blended approach doesn’t work, what do they have the option of doing?
