生活中，工作中難免會有一些讓人生氣的事情，在職場中，人們是怎么談?wù)摰哪兀课覀儊砜聪旅鎺锥涡υ挵伞?
（1）
Clara: What happened just now, Mark? You weren't very kind when you were
talking with Ted. What do you have against
him?
克拉拉：馬克，剛才怎么回事？你和泰德說話的態(tài)度不是很好啊。你對他有什么不滿嗎？
Mark: I just don't like him at all.
馬克：我就是不喜歡他。
Clara: Why? Is there something in particular?
克拉拉：為什么？有什么特別的原因嗎？
Mark: Well, he has such a mean streak in him! I went to his office to ask him
for some help, and he simply turned up his nose at me! I was so angry that I
wanted to slap him! He wasn't like that before he got the job. Now he's such a
snob!
馬克：他太刻薄太無禮了！我剛才去他辦公室找他幫忙，他理都不理我一下！氣死我了，真想扇他一巴掌！他沒坐這個職位以前不是這樣的，真勢利！
Clara: You want my advice? Let it go.
克拉拉：想聽聽我的建議嗎？別去想了。
Mark: Of course, logically I know you're right, but somehow I just can't
bring myself to forget it. Even the mention of his name starts me
fuming.
馬克：當然，按理說你是對的，可是我就是過不去。就連提他的名字都讓我火大。

Judy: You look like you're fuming. What's going on?
朱蒂：你氣得快冒煙了。怎么了？
Andy: The boss is being unreasonable! He flared up at me, making a mountain
out of molehill!
安迪：老板太不講理了！一點小事就沖我發(fā)火。
Judy: What's the "molehill" he made a mountain out of?
朱蒂：什么小事？
Andy: I only made a few more copies, and I didn't think it was any big deal,
but he blew up at me!
安迪：我就多復印了幾份文件，沒什么大不了的，他就發(fā)火了。
Judy: Well, he has been under a lot of pressure recently. The company has
been losing money and he's been a little bit
depressed.
朱蒂：哎，他最近壓力挺大的。公司一直虧損，他有點沮喪。
Andy: Well, I know he has the blues, but it doesn't mean he can vent his
anger on me.
安迪：我知道他心情不好，可是他也不能沖我撒氣呀。

Jane: You look so angry. What happened?
簡：你看起來很生氣呀，怎么了？
Mark: Nothing. I'd rather not talk about it. Just don't
ask.
馬克：沒什么，我不想說，所以別問了。
Jane: Come on. I think you need to let off some steam. Besides, you shouldn't
keep your feelings pent up. They'll eat you alive. So, talk to
me.
簡：來吧，我覺得你應(yīng)該把憤怒發(fā)泄出來。而且不能壓抑自己的情緒，它們會吞了你的。跟我說說。
Mark: All right. This
morning I took my car to the garage to have them check the air-conditioner. They
only gave it a once-over, refilled it with some Freon, and charged me 300
bucks!
馬克：好吧。我今天早上去修車廠修車里的空調(diào)，他們就隨便看了一下，加了點氟利昂，就要我300塊錢！
Jane: No wonder you're livid. I'd be mad, too, if someone ripped me off like
that.
簡：怪不得你臉都綠了。如果人家這么打發(fā)我的話，我也會很生氣的。
Mark: Yeah. AND they were rude. They said I didn't know anything about cars,
which I don't, but they didn't have to be so
blunt!
馬克：是啊，更過分的是他們很無禮。他們說我根本不懂車，我是不懂，可是他們也不能這么說我呀！
Jane: Sounds like you got a raw deal! Maybe you should file a complaint with
the Consumer Protection Agency.
簡：看來你真是受到了很糟的待遇。你可以向消費者保護協(xié)會投訴他們。
