前台接待访客常用会话(1)许多规模比较大的公司都有一个接待员,我们通常叫前台。The work of a receptionist is interesting and varied. 前台的活可是不少。The work is also important because the receptionist is the first person visitors see when they come to a firm. So the receptionist gives them the first idea of the firm. 我们来看看Rose 这位前台是怎样接待来访客人的吧。Rose is a receptionist at Modern Office limited. In this part Rose will speak to Mr. Hussein, who has an appointment with the Sales Manager Mr. Shelli at 11:30. ROSE: Good morning. Can I help you? MR HUSSEIN: Good morning. Is this Modern Office Ltd.? ROSE: Yes it is. MR HUSSEIN: I have an appointment with the Sales Manager at 11: 30. ROSE: May I have your name, please? MR HUSSEIN: Hussein. Omar Hussein. I'm from the Gulf Trading Company. ROSE: Let me see... Ah yes, Mr Hussein.Please take a seat, Mr Hussein. I'll tell the Manager's Secretary you are here. (DIALS) MARIA: Mr Shelli's Office. ROSE: Hello Maria, this is Reception. Mr Omar Hussein is here. He has an appointment with Mr Shelli at 11.30. MARIA: Mr Omar Hussein? ROSE: Yes, he's from the Gulf Trading Company. MARIA: Oh, yes, that's right. I'll come and fetch him now. ROSE: Thanks. (REPLACES PHONE) Mr Shelli's secretary is coming down now. MR HUSSEIN: Thank you. MARIA: Mr Hussein? MR HUSSEIN: Yes, that's right. MARIA: I'm the Sales Manager's secretary. Please come this way.

MR LI: Good morning. ROSE: Good morning. Oh, Mr Li. How are you? ' MR LI: I'm fine, thanks, and you? ROSE: Oh, busy as usual. Do you want to see Mr Shelli? MR LI: Yes, please. ROSE: Have you an appointment? MR LI: Er... No, I haven't. You see, I only arrived in the country this morning. ROSE: Well, I know he's busy at the moment but I'll ask his secretary when he'll be free. Please sit down. MR LI: Thank you. (DIALS) MARIA: Mr Shelli's office. ROSE: Oh, hello Maria. It's reception again. I have Mr Li here. He hasn't an appointment but he'd like to see Mr Shelli. When will he be free? MARIA: Let me see ... Well, Hmmm, he'll be free about 12.30. Can Mr Li wait? ROSE: Mr Shelli will be free about half past twelve. Can you wait? MR LI: What's the time now? ROSE: It's nearly 12: 00. MR LI: Oh that's fine. I'll wait. ROSE: (TO MARIA) Maria, Mr Li will wait.
