第22课：诚实正直的 - 6
【迷你小对话1】
A: Well, that was certainly an interesting meeting. Everyone knew the receptionist needed to be fired, but nobody wanted to say so.
B: Yes, but finally Nancy’s artless comment brought the topic out into the open.
A: 这会开得可真有意思。谁都觉得应该解雇那个前台接待员，但就是没人说。
B: 可不是。不过Nancy实话实说，最终还是把这个话题挑明了。
【迷你小对话2】
A: Here’s your pay. Make sure you count it carefully.
B: I am not worried. You are the most scrupulous man I’ve ever worked for. You wouldn’t even use a company pen to write a personal note because the ink belongs to the company!
A: 这是你的薪水。你一定要点一下。
B: 用不着。在我工作过的老板中，您是最奉公职守的。甚至记自己的东西都不会用公司的钢笔，只因为墨水是公司的。
