陳豪在北京的`ABC美國公司工作。他在走廊上遇到同事Amy。
(Office ambience)
C：早上好，Amy. 我剛聽到一條辦公室的小道消息。
A：小道消息？
C：是關於銷售部那個金髮美女Sally的。
A：I know a Sally Smith in Marketing. I don't know anything about her except that she appears to be quite talented.
C：我從來沒有跟她共事過，聽說挺能幹的，不過這件事跟工作無關。
A：Then why are you talking about her?
C：我聽說她結婚剛剛幾個月，就在鬧離婚了。
A：I'm sorry, Chen Hao. What does this have to do with work?
C：當然跟工作無關了，說說罷了。
A：This is gossip. How did you come to know this?
C：會計部的Tim跟Sally是朋友，他告訴了Melissa, Melissa又告訴了我。
A：So, is everyone talking about this now?
C：大家都在傳。Amy, 你幹嘛那麼不高興，是因爲Sally要離婚，替她覺得惋惜嗎？
A：No. Well, yes, I am sorry to hear that kind of news, but that is not what is bothering me. Let's talk about this over lunch.
C：好，那我們中午在餐廳見。
