口語進(jìn)階-敘事口語材料：電話的發(fā)明02
口語進(jìn)階一般為更資深的英語學(xué)習(xí)者準(zhǔn)備，包括對(duì)詞匯的了解，對(duì)語態(tài)的理解等。下面請(qǐng)結(jié)合mp3以及下方的原文和翻譯，開始今天的口語進(jìn)階練習(xí)吧！
原文及翻譯
The modern phone has many more features. If you don't want the caller to know what is being said in your office, you can push the mute button. If you want to hang out without putting the receiver down, press goodbye. If you don't want to receive calls, just forward them all into your voicemail. Newer phones will indicate when you have voicemail messages.
現(xiàn)代電話具有更多功能。如果您不想讓來電者知道辦公室里正在說什么，您可以按靜音按鈕。如果您想在不放下聽筒的情況下閑逛，請(qǐng)按再見。如果您不想接聽電話，只需將它們?nèi)哭D(zhuǎn)發(fā)到您的語音信箱中。較新的電話會(huì)在您有語音郵件時(shí)發(fā)出指示。
If you have trouble with these features, an automatic voice will tell you your options. This help system is built into the telephone. For example, the help voice will tell you how to set up a distribution list so that you can send the same voice message to a number of people. It will also tell you how to send a message directly into someone's voicemail. You can designate your message to go to the top of the recipient's voicemail list.
如果您在使用這些功能時(shí)遇到問題，自動(dòng)語音會(huì)告訴您您的選擇。此幫助系統(tǒng)內(nèi)置于電話中。例如，幫助語音會(huì)告訴您如何設(shè)置分發(fā)列表，以便您可以將相同的語音消息發(fā)送給多個(gè)人。它還會(huì)告訴您如何將消息直接發(fā)送到某人的語音信箱中。您可以指定您的消息轉(zhuǎn)到收件人語音郵件列表的頂部。
You can also program it so that the recipient cannot forward it. Some systems have limits on how much space can be used for individual voicemail. There are a number of courtesies that voicemail users should follow. Your greeting on your voicemail should be simple. If you are unable to take calls for any reason, you might want to explain that in your recorded greeting.
您還可以對(duì)其進(jìn)行編程，使收件人無法轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)它。某些系統(tǒng)對(duì)單個(gè)語音郵件可使用的空間大小有限制。語音信箱用戶應(yīng)遵循一些禮節(jié)。您在語音信箱上的問候語應(yīng)該簡單。如果您因任何原因無法接聽電話，您可能需要在錄音問候語中說明這一點(diǎn)。
If you are on vacation, you might want to include that information in your greeting. Don't use voicemail as a way to avoid answering the telephone. Some people use voicemail to screen calls, which can be annoying to someone who can never contact you directly. Check your messages regularly and reply to them promptly.
如果您正在度假，您可能需要在問候語中包含該信息。不要使用語音信箱來避免接聽電話。有些人使用語音信箱來屏蔽電話，這可能會(huì)讓那些永遠(yuǎn)無法直接聯(lián)系您的人感到煩惱。定期檢查您的消息并及時(shí)回復(fù)。
