听力原文

Man: Hello，Frank Bauer speaking.

男：喂，我是弗兰克·鲍尔。

Woman: Hello this is Antonia Radford from Speedlink. I'm phoning about a problem with our extension project at the factory.

女：你好，我是特快专递的安东尼娅·雷德福。我打电话来是想问一下我们工厂扩建工程的问题。

Man: Ah. I thought everything was on schedule.

男：啊。我觉得一切都在按计划进行。

Woman: So did I，until today. I called the site foreman because the air conditioning was due to be put in this week, but the subcontractors weren't there. They'd left a message that everything was on hold.

女：我也这么认为，但是今天，我打电话给工地工头，因为空调将于本周投入使用，但分包商不在。他们留下信息说一切都暂停了。

Man: What reason did they give?

男：他们给出了什么理由？

Woman: I thought it'd be a transport delay because the system's coming from the States. Apparently though, there's a hold up at the supplier's end, a quality control issue at the plant, actually.

女：我以为是运输延误，因为系统是从美国来的。很明显，供应商那边出了问题，实际上是工厂的质量控制问题。

Man: I see.

男：我明白了。

Woman: Now, as you know, the rest of the construction work is more or less finished, but we can't start the assembly line until this system is operational for health and safety reasons. We were due to begin production next week.

女：你知道的，剩下的建设工作差不多已经完成了，但是为了健康和安全，我们要等到这个系统能够正常运行，才能启动装配线。我们预定下星期开始生产。

Man： Right. That's why we drew up a contract that allowed you to claim compensation in these circumstances.

男：是的。所以我们起草了一份合同，允许你们在这种情况下提出索赔。

Woman： Absolutely. So could you please inform the building company we will be expecting that for each day's further delay.

女：当然。所以请告知建筑公司，每天的延期我们都会索赔。
