9 We’d have to compare notes on what we’ve discussed during the day.我们想用点时间来研究讨论一下白天谈判的情况。
10 That’ll put us both in the picture.这样双方都能了解全面的情况。
11 Then we’d have some ideas of what you’ll be needing.那么我们就会心中有点儿数，知道你们需要什么了。
12 I can’t say for certain off-hand.我还不能马上说定。
13 Better have something we can get our hands on rather than just spend all our time talking.有些实际材料拿到手总比坐着闲聊强。
14 It’ll be easier for us to get down to facts then.这样就容易进行实质性的谈判了。
15 But wouldn’t you like to spend an extra day or two here?你们不愿意在北京多待一天吗？
16 I’m afraid that won’t be possible,much as we’d like to.尽管我们很想这样做，但恐怕不行了。
