生活英语情景主题:你身体的每个部分都会说话

（单词翻译）

R: so, Emily, how was your day?
E: I don’t think you really want to hear about it.
R: it can’t have been that bad. Go on and tell me about it.
E: to be honest, it was terrible! My manager is such a pain in the neck!
R: why? What happened?
E: well, he made quite a few mistakes on the monthly¹ report and when his supervisor² found them, my manager blamed them on me!
R: that’s not very fair. What did you do?
E: there wasn’t really anything that I could do. There’s always been a lot of bad blood between my manager and myself. If I had said anything, he would have fired me for sure.
R: does he treat everyone in your department like this?
E: he treats everyone pretty badly, but the way he treats me really takes the cake!
R: do you have any idea why he treats you worse than the others?
E: I really have no idea. All I know is that the thought of him really curls³ my hair!
R: is there anyone else you can talk to about it at your company?
E: not really. I’m hoping to live with it for a while until I get a promotion⁴.
R: that’s very sensible⁵. It sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders.
E: I try to be sensible about it, but it’s not very easy. Sometimes you just have to grin⁶ and bear it.
R: that’s so true. When you have a taste for success, you can’t let dishonest people like your manager get in the way.

R:嗨，艾米丽，最近过的怎么样？
E:我想你不会想听我发牢骚的。
R:情况能有多糟糕呢。跟我说说吧。
E:老实说，真是糟透了！我上司实在是太讨厌了。
R:为什么这么说？除了什么事了？
E:嗯，他写的每月报告里出了好多错，结果他的主管发现之后，他居然都赖在我头上。
R:真是不公平。那你该怎么办？
E:实际上我无计可施。我们俩的关系一直很紧张。只要我随便说点什么，他肯定就会把我给抄了。
R:他对你们部门的其他人也是这样吗？
E:他对每个人都不怎么样。但尤其对我，可以说是坏到了极点。
R:你知道他为什么对你比其他人都糟糕吗？
E:我还是不明白。我只是知道他的想法足以让我胆战心惊！
R:这些遭遇你能跟公司里的其他什么人交流吗？
E:恐怕不能。我只希望自己能坚持忍耐知道升职。
R:这样就对了。你能这么想，说明你还是挺聪明的。
E:我努力让自己尽量保持客观地去看待这件事，但真是不容易做到。有时我不得不逆来顺受。
R:没错。你要你升值成功，像你上司这样不诚实的人就不能再为所欲为了。
