58.派对


常用应急场景


范例一:A piece of advice


Have you signed up to join the company’s Christmas party?


Sure, I have. Will you join?


I will. You know, as a newcomer, I think it might be a good opportunity to get to know people from the other departments of our company in a more relaxed atmosphere.


You are right. Our company’s Christmas party has always been an amazing occasion 1 for everybody to relax and get to know each other better. It is also a time to make new friends and do some networking.


I hope that it is not a formal one when the boss is there.


No, it will not be formal at all. It is a fun time. You will love the game show. Please dress casually 2. Usually there is an over abandon 3 of drinks, so be careful with that.


Don’t worry, I can handle that. And I know if the boss is there, even it is an informal 4 evening, it does not make a good impression to get totally drunk 5 in front of him.


范例二:Birthday party


Welcome to my birthday party, I am so happy you can come.


Thanks for inviting 6 me. Here is the gift for you. Happy birthday, Francis! Many more happy and healthy years for you!


Thank you, shall I open it now?


Yes, please do.


Wow, a remote car model and my favorite brand. I really like it. That is so nice of you.


Yeah, I was really struggling whether I should give you this nice little car. It was the last one they had and I really like it so much myself.


Typical you, always wanting to keep the best things for yourself. The more I appreciate the gift now.
