B：I'm calling to discuss the level of insurance coverage you've requested for your order.
      我打電話來是想討論你所要求的訂單保險(xiǎn)額的級(jí)別。

A：I believe that we have requested an amount twenty-five percent above the invoice value?
      我想我們要求的是高于發(fā)票價(jià)值百分之二十五的保險(xiǎn)金額。

B：Yes, that's right. We have no problem in complying with your request, but we think that the amount is a bit excessive.
      是的，沒錯(cuò)。我們可以答應(yīng)這個(gè)要求，但是我們覺得金額有點(diǎn)太高。

A：We've had a lot of trouble in the past with damaged goods.

B：We can, however, arrange the extra coverage. But I suggest you contact your insurance agent there and compare rates.
      不過超出的保險(xiǎn)額我們可以再商量。但是我建議你和你們那邊的保險(xiǎn)代理商聯(lián)絡(luò)并比較一下價(jià)格。

A：You're right. It might be cheaper on this end.
      你說得沒錯(cuò)，在這邊可能會(huì)比較便宜。

B：Fax me whatever rates you find there and I'll compare them with what we can offer.
      不論你那里找到的是那一種價(jià)格都傳真給我，我會(huì)和我們可以提供的價(jià)格來做比較。
