Hello, everyone, and welcome to another lesson here at EnglishPod.

大家好，歡迎來到 EnglishPod 的另一堂課。

And today with Erika, we're bringing you a great lesson about time.

今天，我們將和艾麗卡一起為大家帶來一堂關於時間的精彩課程。

So, we're going to be teaching you how you can ask for more time.

所以，我們要教你如何要求更多的時間。

If you're working on a project at work and you can't finish it on time, you have to ask your boss for more time.

如果你在工作中無法按時完成一個項目，你必須向老闆請求更多的時間。

Right.  So, today in our dialogue, Casey needs more time to put together a press kit.

好吧  所以在今天的對話中 凱西需要更多時間來準備新聞資料袋

A press kit is something the marketing department will put together, basically pictures, logos, information about the company.

新聞資料袋是市場營銷部門整理的東西，基本上包括圖片、標識和公司資訊。

So, when a newspaper or a magazine wants to write an article about them, so they have something already prepared that they could give the newspaper or magazine.

是以，當報紙或雜誌想寫一篇關於他們的文章時，他們就已經準備好了可以給報紙或雜誌的東西。

So, let's listen to our dialogue for the first time.

那麼，讓我們先來聽聽我們的對話。

And as always, it's going to be at a normal speed, so it might be a little bit difficult to understand.

和往常一樣，它將以正常速度播放，所以可能會有點難懂。

We'll come back in one minute and tell you about some of the key language.

一分鐘後，我們將向您介紹一些關鍵語言。

So, Casey, how are things going with the photos for the press kit?

凱西，新聞資料袋的照片拍得怎麼樣了？

Yeah, I've been meaning to talk to you about that.

是啊，我一直想跟你談談這事。

Because I might need to ask for an extension on that deadline.

因為我可能需要要求延長最後期限。

You've had over a month to get this finalized.

你們有一個多月的時間來敲定這件事。

Well, the thing is, we ran into a lot of problems.

問題是，我們遇到了很多問題。

I just want to get this finished on time.

And I apologize for the delay, but some things were just beyond my control.

我很抱歉，有些事情超出了我的控制範圍。

I had trouble booking the photographer, and then Michael was sick for three weeks, so I couldn't include him in the photos.

我在預訂攝影師時遇到了麻煩，後來邁克爾又病了三個星期，所以我沒能讓他參與拍照。

And the design team lost all the files, so I had to redo the pictures.

設計團隊丟失了所有文件，所以我不得不重新制作圖片。

I'm not going to put this off any longer, Casey.

我不想再拖了 凱西 I'm not going to put this off any longer, Casey.

Well, let's take a look at some of the language that we saw in this dialogue in Language Takeaway.

好吧，讓我們來看看《語言外賣》中這段對話中的一些語言。

最後期限  那麼，埃裡卡，什麼是最後期限？

It is the last possible date to do something.

這是最後一個可能的行動日期。

So, for example, when we were in school, our teacher would send us homework and say it was for Friday.

比如說，我們上學的時候，老師會給我們發作業，說是週五的。

Or when you're at work, you have projects that you have to finish by a certain date.

或者當你在工作時，你有必須在某個日期前完成的項目。

讓我們看看下一個詞。  擴展。

So, extension and deadline go together, right?

所以，延期和期限是相輔相成的，對嗎？

If you can't reach your deadline or you can't make your deadline, you must ask for an extension.

如果您無法在截止日期前完成，或無法在截止日期前完成，您必須申請延期。

So, an extension is moving the deadline in the future.

是以，延期就是將最後期限提前。

So, we ran into some problems in this dialogue.

是以，我們在對話中遇到了一些問題。

Let's listen to some more examples of run into so we can understand the meaning.

讓我們再聽一些 "碰上 "的例子，以便理解其中的含義。

我們在回家的路上遇到了暴風雨。

If you're not careful now, you're going to run into a lot of problems later.

如果你現在不小心，以後就會遇到很多問題。

I ran into some trouble with my computer.

If you run into problems, you meet some problems.

如果你遇到問題，你就會遇到一些問題。

So, you would say, I ran into some problems.

所以，你會說，我遇到了一些問題。

I met some problems is wrong, wrong, wrong.

我遇到的一些問題是錯的、錯的、錯的。

And our last word for language takeaway, delayed.

Delayed.  So, when something is delayed, it's.  Late.

延遲。  所以，當事情被延後時，它就。  遲。
