职场关于合同的英语情景对话
　　合同(Contract)，是平等的当事人之间设立、变更、终止民事权利义务关系的协议。随着国内企业与海外公司合作越来越频繁，企业对英语合同也越来越重视，因为在翻译的过程中往往会产生一些让人误会的地方。下面我们就来看看职场中关于合同的商务英语情景对话吧!
　　A: Can you help me make sense of this contract? I don’t quite understand this phrase…
　　B: Let me see, “The two undersigned are in agreement to the following terms. Party A shall be responsible for furnishing Party B with materials as follows.” Well, that’s a pretty plicated way to say you both agree to something and sign your names to certify.
　　A: So is I sign here, that makes me Party A, right?
　　B: Yes. Then you have to abide by all the requirements listed in this contract for Party A.
　　A: What about what it says here, “Terms and conditions of this agreement are void in the case of natural disaster or acts of God.”
　　B: That means unless something very big happens, like an earthquake or a tsunami, you will be bound to the contract and can’t get out of it.
　　A: That serious, huh?
　　B: Sounds like it. Before you sign this contract, I would go over it with a fine-tooth b if I were you. Make sure it’s what you want.
　　A: Good idea. I’ll probably have to get a dictionary!
　　上述对话是A关于英语合同的一些细那么向B求助的过程，其中Party A(甲方)、the two undersigned(签名双方)、acts of God(不可抗力)、terms and conditions(条款和条件)、in case of(以防万一)都是英语合同中一定会涉及到的词汇，大家必须牢牢掌握。
