I simply cannot revamp the entire magazine mock-up in a single night.

我不可能一晚上就把整個雜志的排版給換了，

I know the work is on short notice, but there's no other option.

我知道這個任務這么緊急，但是沒有別的選擇了。

Since the work is on short notice, this is the best we could do.

因為工作時間很緊，我們已經盡力做到最好了。

Okay. I really want to do something to thank you.

好的。我真的想做點事向你表示感謝。

重點講解

The work must be finished very soon.

The work is on short time.

on short notice用在職場中，指“短時間內(突然)”，情況很緊急。比如，如果第二天活動就要開幕了，而前一天晚上卻要求更改執行方案，這時客戶可能 就會說:Sorry to call you on such short notice.(對不起，給您這么緊急的工作。） 或者直接通知:The work is on short notice.工作時間很緊。
