Describe a picture of telephone support
写真を見て内容の説明をしてください
ビジネスパーソンの最も基本的なスキルのひとつに電話対応があります。お客さんや取引先にとって、最初に電話に出たあなたは会社の顔そのもの。電話は顔が見えない分、声だけで印象が決まります。笑顔で話していると、「笑声」に乗って表情が相手に伝わるものです。丁寧な電話対応は、あなただけでなくあなたの会社の信用もアップさせること間違いなしです。

Please describe this picture.

This is a picture of an office. A woman is answering the phone.
 As we can see, the woman is well-dressed in a white top, a black suit and a red strap on her neck. Her hair is neatly combed and fixed with a black hair clip. There's a computer screen in front of her. However, she isn't looking at the screen while answering the phone. According to her facial expression, she might be chatting with someone who isn't related to her workplace. The person could be her friend or someone she's dating with.

1. The preposition "with" is not required here. The transitive verb "date" should be followed by an object.
That is a very nice observation. It seems to me that she is talking with a client and she has to smile so that the caller will hear her smile. I thought so because she is using the company phone. Do you agree?

Let me correct my description. I fully agree with you.
Her smile looks quite appropriate in the business screen.

1. The preposition "on" is usually used with the noun "screen" or perhaps "appropriate for the business scene" would fit here instead.
I agree. To me, it seems like she is a receptionist at a company and she is attending a call to someone who wants to know general information that she knows well. What do you think? Maybe she is someone's secretary.

I'm not sure, but you have a point.
I remember that there was an argument about the gender of the receptionist, and those occupations remind us of female people. It's a kind of gender discrimination, but I think it can not be helped due to well-known facts.

1. The context suggests you're referring to "receptionists" in general, so we could use the plural form here.
What else would you like to add? Can you tell the mood in that picture? Can you also guess her nationality?

Nothing further, thanks.

自然な表現

Nothing further, thanks.

1. You expressed yourself well here. There is nothing to correct, so this is an alternative expression we could use in this context - "that'd be all for today".
