Quick!

  Quick! Gather(聚集) round(在周围)! Here she comes! Yay! Welcome back(在后), Denise! We just couldn't survive(幸免于) without you!
  Oh, bless(祝福) you! Yes, welcome back to Tip(小费 v.给....小费) Top( 顶部) Trading, Denise! Paul, the boss(老板), was a little hasty(急速的) in getting rid(使摆脱) of her, so now he's asked her back, but negotiated(谈判) some new conditions(状况), which include learning how to be a sales( 卖) executive(执行者), like Anna. But who's going to show her what to do? Oh, hello, Denise. Nice to have you back.
  I suppose(猜想) I had to eat my words, didn't I? Yes, well, it makes a change from biscuits((英)饼干). Now, where have you put my stapler and my red pens? Don't worry( 担忧) about that. I've got you a new stapler and a new desk, right here, next to Anna. Oh, lovely(可爱的).
  Well, you wanted some experience(经验) in sales( 卖), so I thought Anna could show you the ropes(绳). Ropes? I don't have any ropes. Anna, if you show someone the ropes, it means you explain to someone how to do the job. You'll be great at that! Oh, I see.
  Well, I might(可以〔用于礼貌地提出建议〕) know what to do, but I'm no good at explaining it to someone else. Well, the best way is to start at the beginning. Why not suggest(建议) to her to 'watch what I do'? Or give her some of your tasks(工作) and say, 'Please could you make a start( 开始) on these?' And then reassure(使…安心) her by saying, 'I'm here to help, so please ask me if you need to know what to do.'
