史密斯是一家建設公司的經(jīng)理，他正負責一個新工程的招標案。第一位投標的是一家波蘭公司，他們的代表出價四十萬元接那個案子。“似乎很合理，”史密斯說。“你可不可以給我一張明細表呢?”

"Sure," said the Pole, " $200, 000 for labor and $ 200,000 for materials. "

“當然沒問題，”波蘭公司代表說道，“二十萬元工資，二十萬元材科費。”

Next to make a bid was the Standard American Construction Company, which bid $ 800,000.

下一個出標的是美國標準建設公司，他們以八十萬元競標。

"Hmm, that seems a bit high," said Smith. "What's the breakdown?"

“嗯，這個價錢似乎有些偏高，”史密斯說道。"你們有明細表嗎?"

" $ 400,000 0n materials, $ 400,000 0n labor. "

“四十萬元材料，四十萬元工資。”

"I'll get back to you. "

“我以后再同你聯(lián)系。”

Finally the representative of Cohen, Goldstein and Leibowitz entered Smith's office. " $ 1,200,000 is our bid," said the agent."

最后可翰•高斯坦•雷伯威茲公司的代表走進史密斯辦公室。“一百二十萬元是我們競標的價碼，”代表說道。

$11 200, 0001 That' s way out of line," exclaimed Smith. "Can you give me a breakdown onthat?"

“一百二十萬元這個標高得太過分了，”史密斯叫道“你可以給我一張明細表嗎?"

"No problem," replied the rep. " $400, 000 for me,$ 400 , 000 for you and $ 400，000 for thePolacks.
