2-- Are you telling me you’re not going to meet with me?
 
1-- Not at all, sir. I’d just like to push it up to next week.I’ll have a lot more free time at the beginning of next week.
 
2-- Well, I don’t like it, but I guess I don’t have any choice.

1--恐怕這星期我們的確人手不夠，克蘭道先生。我想給您服務(wù)，可就恐怕沒有時間。
2--你的意思是不打算見我了嗎？
1--絕對不是，先生。我只是想挪到下星期。下周初我會空閑得多。
2--好吧，我不愿意這樣，不過我想也別無選擇了。
