情景会话1 我赴约迟到了
Amy: You said you'd be here 15 minutes ago. What's the holdup?(你说你会在15分钟前到这里的。是什么耽误了?)
Zoey: I'm sorry, there was some traffic on the way. I'm here now.(对不起,路上有点堵车。我现在来了。)
情景会话2 我抱怨好友Mike动作慢
Zoey: We're supposed to be at the restaurant by now. What's the holdup? (我们现在应该已经在餐馆了。到底怎么了?)
Mike: I'm sorry, I got caught up in a phone call. Let's go now.(对不起,我接了个电话,耽误了。我们现在走吧。)
