Making the Meeting Agenda
Jack：Sally， have you finished the agenda of Wednesday’s meeting.
Sally：I’m still working on it. There will be a lot to go over on Wednesday. Here’s what I’ve got so far.
Jack：Do you think we will spend more than thirty minutes in the opening I think it should be pretty simple.
Sally：It shouldn’t take too long， but there will be a lot of dignitaries at the meeting. In the opening exercises， it is protocol to spend a little time to recognize them.
Jack：Really Well， at least the minutes shouldn’t take too long to review. There shouldn’t be a lot of active business left over from last meeting.
Sally：True. After review and acceptance of the minutes， we have several committee reports. Old business won’t take up too much time1， but sometimes the committee delegates can be a little verbose.
Jack：You can make a schedule to limit.
Sally：Yeah. I think so.

杰克：真的吗？那好吧，至少不要花太多时间评议会议记录。上次会议之后应该没有留下太多的后续工作。
莎莉：是这样。在评议和接受会议记录后，我们还有几份委员会的报告要看。遗留问题不会占太多时间，但有时委员会代表会很啰嗦。
杰克：你可以做一个时间表，限制一下。
莎莉：是的，我也这么想。
