地道美语听力练习:人脉关系

Kelly: What we need are a few people in the industry to talk up our new company.
凯利：我们需要几位业内人士力捧我们的新公司。

John: I'm on top of that. I'm really well connected, as you know, and I've already put in a few calls to a few of the movers and shakers in our business.
约翰：我是首要人选。如你所知，我的人际关系良好，并且我已经联系了不少非常有影响力的业内人士。

Kelly: I didn't know you had such a vast network of contacts.
凯利：我不知道你的人际关系网如此庞大。

John: Oh, sure I do. I don't mean to name drop, but you know Kevin Martinez at McQ Corp? I'm pretty tight with him. And Eva Arribas at Syntect? She and I go way back.
约翰：啊，当然啦。我并不是想自抬身价，但你知道McQ公司的凯文·马丁内斯吗？我跟他关系密切。还有Syntect公司的伊娃·阿瑞波斯？我跟她交情也很好。

Kelly: Wow, those are some heavy hitters!
凯利：哇，他们都是重磅人物！

John: You've said it. And Kevin owes me one, and Eva would bend over backwards for me.
约翰：正是。凯文欠我一个人情，伊娃也会不留余力地支持我。

Kelly: It's great! What did they say when you asked them to get the word out about us?
凯利：太棒了！你请他们来宣传我们公司时，他们怎么说？

John: Um, I'm still waiting to hear back from them. I'm sure they'll call back any day now.
约翰：额，我仍在等他们的消息。他们随时可能回电话。
