–Carl has asked to speak with his trainer, Samantha Jones. He has gotten alot of feedback on his monthly report from his manager and does not know what to do.–
Carl: Hi Samantha, I appreciate you taking the time to meet with me. 

こんにちは、サマンサー。今日また会えてうれしい。
Samantha: It really is good to see you again Carl. So how are things going for you ? 

久しぶり、カール！元気？最近はどう？
Carl: Not bad. How about you? 

まあ、大丈夫だ。君は？
Samantha: I can’t complain. You mentioned you had a problem with your monthly report. How can I help you with that? Is it your first report? 

愚痴はないね。カールは月末レポートに問題があったと聞いたんだけど、私は何か出来ることある？初めてのレポートだったの？
Carl: Yes, it is my first report. My manager wrote comments all over it with his revisions but I can’t understand all of his comments. I would really like to skill up my skills in writing reports. Can you help me out? 

そうだ、初めてだったよ。マネジャーが色んなところを書き直したが、彼のコメントが理解できない。自分のレポートを書く能力を上達したい。手を貸してくれないか？
Samantha: Wow! He tore your report apart! He really is a dedicated manager by all the pointers and advice I see on this report. 

すげー。完全に書き直されたね。マネジャーのアドバイスを読むと彼は熱心な人だとすぐわかる。
Carl: I didn’t think the report was that bad initially. I tried to include everything our team had done. 

最初はそんなに悪くないと思っていたのに。チームが達成したことを全部書いたし。。。
Samantha: That’s the problem. It’s too long. Here, see, he says, “You’ve thrown everything but the kitchen sink. One page should be the max for these monthly reports. Time is money in business and you do not want to take up too much of others times when reading these. They need to be clear and concise. Most people are preoccupied and have little attention span to read through all the details. 

それが問題だよ！長すぎるわ！このコメントで書かれているように、可能なもの全てを入れちゃった。月末レポートは1ページで限界なはずだよ。ビジネスでは時間がお金だから、これを読ませると他の人の時間は無駄になる。簡潔で、意味がはっきりわかるべきだ。みんな忙しいから、全ての詳細を読む集中期間がない
Carl: Attention what? 　しゅうちゅうなに？
Samantha: Attention span. It means how long someone can pay attention. 

集中期間。どれくらいの時間集中ができるのかという意味
