（单词翻译）

A:     ...like I told you before, we just don’t have the re-
       sources to hire you an assistant.

 B:     I understand that,   but   the   fact   is  we’re under-
       staffed.

 A:    The timing1 is just not right.  The economy is bad,
       and it’s too risky2 to take on new staff.

 B:    Yeah, I guess you’re right....  here’s an idea, what
        if we hire an intern3?  She would take some of the
       weight off my shoulders.

 A:     She?

 B:    Yeah,  you  know,  a  recent  graduate.  She  could
       give me a hand with some of these projects and
       we could keep our costs down.

 A:    That sounds reasonable...  let me see what I can
       do.

 A:    Tony,  I’d like to introduce you to your new assis-
       tant.

 B:    OK, great! Let’s meet her!

 C:     Hi, I’m Adam.

 B:    Oh... hi... I’m Tony...
