地道美語聽力播客:Answering Machine Messages電話答錄機(jī)

I got two tickets to a show at the last minute and I tried to find someone to go with me. First, I called Amanda. The phone rang and rang and then her answering machine picked up .
"Hi, I'm not in right now. Leave me a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can."
Amanda wasn't home or she was screening her calls. I didn't want to leave a message and decided to try Celia. The phone rang about six times and then I heard,
"This is the voicemail for Celia. Leave me a message after the long beep . Or, you can try mycell phone at 213- 555 -1212. Have a nice day.‚"
By this time, I was starting to feel discouraged . I didn't want to go to the show by myself, so I tried one last time. I called Leslie at work.
"Hello, you've reached the office of Leslie Munroe. I am in a meeting or with a client . I'm sorry to miss your call. Please stay on the line and leave a detailed message. I will return your call as soon as I can. Thank you for calling.‚"
I decided to leave a message. Leslie called me right back and we made plans for the show. We had a great time.
