• 例句：As far as our cash flow situation is concerned, we are having problems with slow payers. Therefore, I think we need to deal with this situation urgently. First, we should consider imposing penalties for late payments. For example, if a client pays 10 days late, they would have to pay a fixed amount of interest on the overdue payment. What’s more, we should call our clients more often to insist on prompt payment. In addition, I think we should hire a credit controller who will be responsible for collecting late payments rather than leaving this task up to the accountant. I realize that our clients may find these measures rather strict, but if we carefully and tactfully explain to them that these steps are very necessary, they should understand. After all, we do have very good relationships with them and we have given most of them generous discounts this year.
• 就我們的現金流情況而言，我們正面臨著付款緩慢的問題。因此，我認為我們需要緊急處理這種情況。首先，我們應該考慮對逾期付款客戶進行罰則。例如，如果客戶延遲10天付款，他們將得支付一個固定數額的逾期付款利息。更重要的是，我們應該更經常地給客戶打電話，堅持要求他們及時付款。此外，我認為我們應該僱用一名信貸主管，負責收取逾期付款，而不是把這項任務交給會計。我意識到，我們的客戶可能會覺得這些措施相當嚴格，但如果我們仔細和委婉地向他們解釋，這些步驟是非常必要的，他們應該會理解。畢竟，我們確實與他們有非常好的關係，我們今年給了大多數的客戶很大方的折扣。

• 例句：I believe that too many people who break the law are sent to prison these days. For the most part, the system doesn’t work. Although studies show that most ex-prisoners continue to commit crimes after they are released, more and more people are also being imprisoned. The system can be improved in many ways. Teenagers, for instance, should be given lighter punishments - at least for less serious offences.In addition, education and training should be improved. In other words, we should prepare prisoners for life after they are released. However, regarding very serious crimes, I think that we have no choice but to keep such criminals in prison for the maximum amount of time.
• 我相信最近有太多違法的人被送進監獄。在大多數情況下，這個政府系統卻起不了作用。雖然研究表明，大多數刑滿釋放人員在出獄後繼續犯罪，也有越來越多的人被關進監獄。該系統可以在許多方面得到改善。例如，青少年應該得到較輕的懲罰--至少是針對不太嚴重的罪行。此外，教育和培訓也應得到改善。換句話說，我們應該為囚犯獲釋後的生活做好準備。然而，關於非常嚴重的罪行，我認為我們別無選擇，只能把這些罪犯關在監獄裡，讓他們度過最長的時間。
