DIALOGUE 72

Meeting and Greeting

1--Perofessor Archer! How nice to see you.
2--It's nice to see you again, too.
1--I don't think you've met my assistant before.This
   is Mr Carvalho.
2--How do you do!
3--How do you do! Have you visited our country before?
2--Yes, I was here three years ago.
1--Would you like tea or coffee?
2--Tea, please. With milk.
1--I'm afraid we haven't got any milk. I'm very
   sorry.
2--It doesn't matter. I often drink tea without milk.

===================================
注解：
1）How nice to see you. 是省略感叹句。全句是How nice
it is to see you. 口语中多用省略句，有时也说Nice to see you.
2）assistant：助手，助理人员。
3）It doesn't matter:没关系。

===================================
译文：

1--阿切尔教授，见到你很高兴。
2--又见到你我也很高兴。
1--我想你还不认识我的助手吧。这位是卡瓦尔豪先生。
2--你好！
3--你好！你过去来访问过我国吗？
2--来过，三年前来过。
1--你喝茶还是喝咖啡？
2--喝茶，请加点牛奶。
