Dialogue 情境對話
Simon : So, you've all had a chance to look over the proposal. What are your thoughts on this? Jason :Well, it seems to me that this project is too much of a challenge for us. I strongly believe that we could be biting off more than we can chew if we take on this project. Simon : Thanks for your input, Jason. Jennifer? Jennifer : Well, as far as I'm concerned, the major issue is the budget. I'm not sure we have the funding available for such a large campaign. Simon : I believe the board has promised the funding as long as we can guarantee a big enough return. Here's how I look at it: It's a big challenge, sure. However, in my view, we must step outside our comfort zone to stay ahead of the competition. I'm absolutely convinced we should approve this.
