2015年BEC商务英语高级口语对话：下订单
A: Our toner cartridges are already out of ink...Could you make an order for a new set?
B: We will need new cartridges for all of the office printers? That will be a large order, probably about two or three cases. The office supply store we usually go through might not have that many in stock.
A: You can double check with the housekeeping department, but I am pretty sure all of the machines will need new cartridges. Last time when we made our order to the supplier, the quantity was also especially high. They are used to receiving such bulk orders from us . As long as we give them a heads up a couple days in advance, they can usually fill the order.
B: OK, I will make a few calls and run our order by housekeeping first to make sure. Is there anything else we need to order while I am at it?
A: I think the only thing is toner. Try to see if they can deliver it before the end of business day tomorrow. We should really try to do better about waiting until the last minute to fill orders that are usually made on a monthly basis. Anyhow, see what you can do to expedite the order this time.
B: OK, will do.
我们的墨盒已经没墨了…你能订套新的吗?
我们办公室所有的打印机都需要新墨盒吗?那可是份不小的订单，很可能需要2，3箱。我们通常去的办公用品商店可能不会有那么多存货。
你可以和总务部门仔细检查一下，但是我非常确定我们所有的机器都要换新墨盒了。上次我们向供应商订购时，数量也是相当大的。他们已经习惯接受我们这么大的订单了。只要我们提前一天通知他们，他们通常能供应订货的。
好的，我去打几个电话，先让总务部门核实一下，再续订单。还有什么东西需要我们一起下订单的?
我想只需要墨盒。去确认一下他们能否在明天下班之前送来。我们每个月都要填的订单最好不要等到最后一个才做。无论如何，你这次一定要努力解决好这个问题。
好的，我会做好的。
