triangle Script 대본 Roteiro Texto

Option A

Mateo: On vacation last year. Great memories. What about your family? Are your parents in the same field as you, the healthcare business?

Beata: Uh, no. Dad is a professor. Mum worked various jobs, but she's basically retired now. Can we move to the Diab Sensor?

Mateo: Which university?

Beata: Excuse me?

Mateo: Your father, the professor. Which university is he at?

Beata: Warsaw, the Chopin University of Music.

Mateo: Ah, Chopin University! That's not too far from the National Museum. I know Warsaw well. It's one of the world's great capital cities.

Beata: I'm very fond of the place too. Anyway, the Diab Sensor...

Mateo: There will be plenty of time for that later. Remind me, what's the name of that really tall building in the middle of Warsaw? I went to a trade fair there once many years ago.

Beata: Is this a good moment to start talking about the Diab Sensor?

Mateo: Relax. We'll come to that later. Back to the tall building. Do you know the one that I mean?

Beata: The Palace of Culture and Science?

Mateo: The Palace, that's it. That reminds me, I met Jessica Scott there for the first time. What was the event again? I think I still have a program somewhere around here. Do you want to see it? Don't worry. We'll get to the Diab Sensor in a moment.

Beata: Matteo, I really think we should get to the Diab Sensor now. We don't have long to talk.

Mateo: If you insist, fine. I just thought you would be interested in the program, that's all. Before I forget, tell me again why Daniel couldn't come.


Option B

Mateo: On a vacation last year. Great memories. What about your family? Are your parents in the same field as you, the healthcare business?

Beata: My parents?

Mateo: Yes. Are they in the healthcare business?

Beata: No, not at all. Mum had various jobs, but she's basically retired now. And Dad's a professor.

Mateo: Oh yes? Whereabouts?

Beata: Warsaw, the Chopin University of Music. He's a bit of a musical mastermind.

Mateo: The Chopin University? That's not too far from the National Museum.

Beata: You sound like you know Warsaw well.

Mateo: I adore Warsaw. It's one of the world's greatest cities. I've been there twice. Remind me, what's the name of the really tall building in the middle of the city? I went to a trade fair there once many years ago.

Mateo: Now, where were we?

Beata: I think you were talking about the Palace of Culture and Science.

Mateo: The Palace, that's it. That reminds me, I met Jessica Scott there for the first time. What was the event again? I think I still have a program somewhere around here. (Do you) Want to see it?

Beata: Of course,

Mateo: Great. And don't worry. We'll get to the Diab Sensor in a moment.



Reflection A: Wow, we certainly had very different approaches. In the end, Mateo seemed a little unhappy when I took control of the conversation. I tried again and again to bring him back to the diode sensor, but he wanted to talk about other subjects. I see what Alex meant about multitasking.

Reflection B: He liked to talk a lot, but as Alex said, it really was best to go with the flow. I didn't want to seem rude or uninterested even though I really wanted to discuss the Diab Sensor. Mateo has a very different way of handling meetings to (from) me, and I had to respect that.
