課文講解
Daniel: Well Tiffany, we would like to offer you a job here at our company. Do you have any questions for us? 嗯…蒂芬妮，我们想要请妳到我们公司上班。妳有什么问题要问吗？
Tiffany: Yes, I have one. How much does the jobs pay? 有，我有一个问题。这份工作的薪水是多少？
Daniel: How much salary do you expect? 妳期望的薪水为何？
Tiffany: What salary will you offer me? 你们能提供的待遇是多少呢？
Daniel: OK then. Our basic proposition is NT$30,000 every month. We decided on this salary based on your experience. 好的，我们初步的提议是月薪新台币三万元。我们是根据妳的经验所做出的决定。
Tiffany: Does that include all national holidays? 这有包括所有的国定假日吗？
Daniel: Yes, but not all of Chinese New Year. You will have to work some to make up for that week. 有，但是并不包含农历新年。妳需要多上几天班来补足那一周。
Tiffany: I appreciate the offer, but from my perspective, NT$30,000 is not enough for someone who had two great internships in college, like I did. 感谢您的提议。但是，就我看来，月薪三万元对于像我一样在大学时期有两个超棒实习经验的人来说，是不够的。
Daniel: How much do you have in mind? 那妳希望的待遇是…？
Tiffany: Well, because of my past experience, I would like NT$38,000 per month. I will be one of the best employees at your company with my knowledge and experience, so I feel it's a fair salary. 那妳希望的待遇是…？根据过去的经验，我希望每个月是三万八千元。利用我的知识和经验，我将会是贵公司最棒的员工之一，所以我觉得这个薪水很合理。
Daniel: That's a little high. May we offer a compromise? How about NT$35,000? 这个数字有点高。我能否提出一个折衷办法？三万五千可以吗？
Tiffany: OK. I think that will work for me. 可以，我觉得这个数字可以接受。
Daniel: Great, I believe we have an agreement. It's our pleasure to have you aboard, Tiffany. 好，我相信我们达成协议了。蒂芬妮，我们很荣幸有妳加入。
Tiffany: Thank you Daniel for the opportunity, and I look forward to starting work soon. 丹尼尔，谢谢您给我这个机会。我期待尽快开始工作。
