簽證手續 Visa formalities
A:Nina, have you had everything organized yet?
妮娜，一切都安排就緒了嗎？
B:Except your visa, everything is ready. I have reserved a hotel room in the downtown area of Paris.
除了您的簽證，其他的事情都準備好了。我已經在巴黎市中心給您預訂了賓館。
A:OK, thank you. Then when can I get my visa?
好的，謝謝你。那我什么時候能拿到簽證呢？
B:There are some difficulties. You have to apply for the visa one month ahead of time, we were a little late when we started applying for it. And also we need an invitation from Firth Company.
這有些困難。申請簽證必須提前一個月，我們申請得有點晚。而且還需要福斯公司給我們出具邀請函。
A:It really sounds complicated. Now what should I do?
聽起來確實很復雜。我該怎么辦？
B: Don't worry. I have talked to the visa office and they promised that once we got the invitation, you would get your visa within 1 week.
不用擔心，我已經和簽證辦公室談過了，他們說我們一拿到邀請函一個星期之內保證就能拿到簽證。
A:Great. Did you book my fight there?
太好了。你幫我預定機票了嗎？
B:Of course, I have booked the flight for 24th. You don't have to worry about these trifles.
當然了，我已經預定了24號的機票，你不用擔心這件小事。
A:I appreciate it. I am very lucky to have a secretary like you.
非常感謝，有你這樣的秘書我真是很幸運。
B:You are welcome.
不客氣。
“ahead of time”意思是“提前”。例如：The professor asked us to hand in the paper ahead of time. 教授讓我們提前交上論文。
