Larry在告诉李华他公司里发生的事。
LL: So, Li Hua, yesterday at the office I heard two of my co-workers trash talking my boss.
LH: 什么是trash talking? 难道他们在谈垃圾，垃圾有什么好谈的？
LL: No, it"s not. Trash talking is saying really mean things about someone.
LH: 噢，trash talking就是说别人的坏话。那你的这两位同事为什么要说老板的坏话呢？
LL: I think they were upset because he didn"t like a proposal they submitted. They were saying my boss wasn"t very smart and didn"t make good decisions for the company.
LH: 就因为老板没有接受他们的建议，他们就说他笨，作出的决策对公司不利？他们也太自负了吧！ Larry，那你是怎么看的呢？
LL: I am sure he had his reasons for rejecting their proposal. I have a lot of respect for my boss, and that is why their trash talking him bothers me so much.
LH: 老板拒绝他们的建议总有他的道理。我知道你很尊重你们的老板，所以听见别人在背后说他坏话就感到很讨厌。我那天也听到两个研究生在说一个教授的坏话。我也觉得很讨厌。更多信息请访问：http://www.24en.com/
LL: Did you do anything about their trash talk?
LH: 我当时就为这位教授辩护。 他们不一定会改变看法，但是我不能听任他们诬蔑这位教授。
LL: Good for you, Li Hua!
LH: 后来别人告诉我那两个人又在背后说我的坏话 - They trash talked me 。
LL: I guess you made them mad by bringing attention to their trash talking. I just don"t have the courage to deal with my two co-workers who talked trash about my boss.
LH: 你没有勇气来对付他们？这有什么呢？你就对他们说， 你们这样说老板的坏话是不对的。
LL: I don"t think it is that easy, Li Hua. After all, I still have to work with these trash talkers.
