John：What’s new in the office? Bring me up to date.

咱們辦公室有什么新聞嗎？跟我說說，讓我也跟上點兒形勢。

Wenny：Well…Mike took over as head of our company a month ago.

嗯……一個月前，邁克當(dāng)上公司老板了。

John：Wow, that’s huge!

噢！這可夠轟動的！

Wenny：You don’t say. He really is a smooth one! But I heard he has been in hot water with his wife recently.

可不是，他真的很厲害。可我聽說最近他家后院失火啊，他老婆跟他不和。

John：Well, I think they have been having trouble for quite a while. We all knew it when I was still here.

嗯，他倆的問題不是一天兩天了，我休假之前消息就傳開了。

Wenny：There’s an elephant in the room, and no one dares talk about it since he’s the boss now.

這就是件國王的新衣，辦公室里根本沒人敢提這件事，他現(xiàn)在可是老板了。
