A: All products have to go through five checks in the whole manufacturing process.

B: What’s the monthly output?

A: One thousand units per month now. But we’ll be making 1,200 units beginning with October.

B: What’s your usual percentage of rejects?

A: Yes. Shall we take a break now?

-- 请戴上安全帽。

-- 我们还得穿上罩衣吗？

-- 最好穿上，以免弄脏你的衣服。请留神脚下。

-- 哦，不是全部自动的。

-- 哦，那你们如何控制质量呢？

Dialogue 5

A: It was very kind of you to give me a tour of the place. It gave me a good idea of your product range.

B: It’s a pleasure to show our factory to our customers. What’s your general impression, may I ask?

A: Very impressive, indeed, especially the speed of your NW Model.

B: That’s our latest development. A product with high performance. We put it on the market just two months ago.

A: The machine gives you an edge over your competitors, I guess.

B: Certainly. No one can match us as far as speed is concerned.

A: Could you give me some brochures for that machine? And the price if possible.

B: Right. Here is our sales catalog and literature.

A: Thank you. I think we may be able to work together in the future.

-- 谢谢你们陪同我看了整个工厂。这次参观使我对你们的产品范围有了一个很好的了解。

-- 带我们的客户来参观工厂是我们的荣幸。不知道你总体印象如何？

-- 很好，尤其是你们的NW型机器的速度。

-- 那是我们新开发的产品，性能很好。两个月前刚投放市场。

-- 和你们的竞争对手相比，我想这机器可以让你们多占一个优势。

-- 当然。就速度而言，目前没有厂家能和我们相比。

-- 能给我一些那种机器配套的小册子吗？如有可能，还有价格。

-- 好的。这是我们的销售目录和说明书。

-- 谢谢。我想也许将来我们可以合作。
