Useful Dialogue 实用会话
Happy Weekend
Beth： How did you enjoy the weekend in the countryside Sally
Sally： I had a great time. The fresh air， the peace and quiet and I got to know many new people.
Beth： Why do you say that the people you work with are “new” people
Sally： Because at work I only saw their professional business image. On the outing I saw their fun side.
Beth： Do you think that the weekend away made the team more productive
Sally： I really did think so. I got to know everyone so much better so that our communication will be smoother.
Beth： It’s funny really ——you spend more time with the people you work with than you do with your family and friends， but who can say that they really know the people they work with well
Sally： A great way to fix this and really learn about the people you work with is to have an outing. A successful outing should be away from the office and in an environment that is different from the usual office scene.
Beth： As you did during the passed weekend
Sally： Of course.
Beth： Sounds great. I hope that I can go in the next weekend outing！
Sally： I hope you can！
快乐的周末
贝丝：在乡下的周末过得愉快吗，莎莉？
莎莉：我玩得很开心。空气清新、心情平静、环境安宁，而且我认识了很多新人。
贝丝：你为什么说和你一起工作的人是“新”人？
莎莉：因为在单位我只看到他们职业化的工作形象。在外面玩的时候我看到了他们有趣的一面。
贝丝：你认为周末旅游能提高团队的效率吗？
莎莉：我确实这么认为。我对每一个人多了一些了解，这样我们的交流就更容易了。
贝丝：真的很有意思——你和与你一起工作的人度过的时间要多于你和家人与朋友。可是谁能确保自己真正了解和自己一起工作的人呢？
莎莉：解决此问题并要真正了解与你一起工作的人的一个好方法就是外出旅游。旅游要成功，就要选择一个远离办公室，并且与一般办公室氛围不同的地方。
贝丝：就像你们在过去的这个周末一样？
莎莉：当然。
贝丝：听起来不错。我希望下一次周末旅行我能去！
莎莉：我也希望你能参加！
