今天的这段对话，在讨论工作，
 
工作有一个多月的时间来完成，为什么事情还要延迟
 
来听今天的讲解:
 
A: So, Casey, how are things going with photos for the press kit?
 
那么，凯西，这组新闻资料配的照片处理的怎么样了？
 
B: Yeah, I've been meaning to talk to you about that. I might need to ask for an extension on that deadline.
 
嗯，我刚才正想跟你说这件事，我可能需要延长截止时间。
 
A: You've had over a month to get this finalized. Why are things delayed?
 
你有一个多月的时间来完成，为什么事情还要延迟？
 
B: Well, we ran into a lot of problems.
 
嗯，问题是，我们遇到的很多问题。
 
A: I'm not looking for excuses here. I just want to get this finished on time.
 
我不想听理由，我只想事情准时完成。
 
B: I know, and I apologize for the delay. But some things were just beyond my control. I had trouble booking the photographer and then Michael was sick for three weeks, so I couldn't include him in the photos, and the design team lost all the files, so I had to re-do the pictures.
 
我知道，延迟了实在抱歉。但是有些事不是我能控制的。预约摄影师遇到了麻烦，接着Michael生病休息了三周，以至于不能拍他的照片。还有设计团队丢失了所有资料，我需要再重新处理照片。
 
A: I'm not going to put this off any longer, Casey. I want those photos ASAP.
 
我不会再把这个延期了，凯西。我现在马上要拿到照片。
