Angry over a change in plans
A: Susan! Why didn’t you tell me that you were taking over the Silk Company account?
B: I thought you knew, Todd. It was decided last week. I guess you weren’t at the meeting.
A: You know I wasn’t at the meeting. I was meeting with Mr. Wei about this account. I’ve been on this for a month and a half.
B: I’m sorry. Todd, but Mr. Emory felt that it was going too slowly, and that it needed a fresh start. He should have told you.
计划变动
A：苏珊！你为什么没告诉我你要接管丝绸公司这个项目？
B：我以为你知道了呢，陶德。这是上星期决定的。我想你没来开会。
A：你知道我没来开会。我正会见魏先生商议这个项目。我为这已经工作一个半月了。
B：对不起，陶德，可埃莫里先生觉得这事进展得太慢，需要一个全新的开始。他应该告诉你了。
Unveiling a disagreement
A: John? I have to ay I was bothered by the way you handled the meeting today.
B: How so? I thought it went fine.
A: I think it would have been better if you had given us more of a chance to give out opinions.
B: I’m sorry. I thought we were all pretty much in agreement.

B：为什么？我觉得会开得不错。
