John：What’s new in the office? Bring me up to date.

咱们办公室有什么新闻吗？跟我说说，让我也跟上点儿形势。

Wenny：Well…Mike took over as head of our company a month ago.

嗯……一个月前，迈克当上公司老板了。

John：Wow, that’s huge!

噢！这可够轰动的！

Wenny：You don’t say. He really is a smooth one! But I heard he has been in hot water with his wife recently.

可不是，他真的很厉害。可我听说最近他家后院失火啊，他老婆跟他不和。

John：Well, I think they have been having trouble for quite a while. We all knew it when I was still here.

嗯，他俩的问题不是一天两天了，我休假之前消息就传开了。

Wenny：There’s an elephant in the room, and no one dares talk about it since he’s the boss now.

这就是件国王的新衣，办公室里根本没人敢提这件事，他现在可是老板了。
