没问题，玛格丽特。现在，请给我一些好消息。你同意我上次的提议了吗？
F:I have indeed and I wish to sign the agreement, pending one small change to be made a contract.
我很同意并且希望签署协议，只是还要对合同进行一项小的变更。
M:Margaret, we've been through this for almost a year now, back and forth making alterations.
玛格丽特，我们为此已经忙活了将近一年的时间，总是反反复复地修改。
Are you sure you want to make a sponsorship deal for your clients or not?
你确定要为你的客户达成赞助协议吗？
I ask this because frankly, some people at my end are running out of patience.

我理解你的担忧，但我相信你也理解，我们最关心的是客户的最大利益。
We therefore comb through the fine details of all contracts.Rest assured we all appreciate your firm's patience.
