  Ask for Leave 我想请假

  An employee must inform the employer before starting the leave that he or she will be taking a personal leave of absence.

  情景对话1:

  简因病和琳商量工作安排。

  Jane: I can't make it to work today. I've got the flu or something. 我今天不能来上班了,我得了流感。

  Jane: Well, there is one thing, if you don't mind. 哦,有一件事要麻烦你。

  Lynn: No problem. What is it? 没问题,什么事?

  Jane: I'm scheduled to give a thirty-minute tour of the factory this afternoon. 我今天下午本来安排了半个小时带人参观工厂。

  Lynn: A thirty-minute tour? Sure. I'll take care of that for you. Who's going to be on the tour? 半个小时的参观?没问题,我帮你。谁要来参观?

  Jane: Oh, it's a group of fifty junior high school students. 是50多个初中学生。

  Lynn: Well, yeah, I guess I could do that for you...Sure. 好,我想我能帮你,没问题。

  Jane: Really? Thanks a million. I really appreciate it. 真的?太感谢了,我非常感谢。

  Lynn: Don't mention it! 不客气。
