3.Translate orally the following dialogue into English.

A：史密斯先生，您早。

B：您早，陈先生。

A：我们又见面了。我们前天给您的报价，想必已经决定接受了吧。

B：您知道，陈先生，虽然我个人觉得你们的报价是可取的，但因授权有限，我还不能立即接受。前天会谈后我立即与总公司通了长途电话，报告了会谈情况和你们的报价，还建议接受报价。

A：他们接受了您的建议了吗？

B：今天早上刚刚收到回电，原则上予以接受。

A：好的。应该说，我们能够达成这笔交易是有您一份功劳的，史密斯先生，因为您向总公司汇报情况中采取了主动。

B：陈先生，我是极愿意为推动我们两个公司间的贸易发展而出力的。

A：我们非常赞赏您的努力。我们马上就按照上次会谈的结果准备合同，好吗？

B：但是，有关仲裁条款，我们公司认为，如果发生争执，还是交给第三国的仲裁机构进行仲裁为好。这并不等于说中国贸促会的对外贸易仲裁委员会是不可信赖的；也不等于说在执行合同的过程中，如果发生争执必定要提交仲裁。只要双方友好协商，就根本没有必要进行仲裁。然而，陈先生，生意毕竟是生意。在签订合同前将条款定得周到一点，不是更好吗？

A：贵公司的回电对其他条件都接受了吗？

B：是的，只要你们同意在第三国，比如瑞典，进行仲裁，其他条件都可接受。

A：噢，是这样。好的，我们就破例接受你们的要求，同意在瑞典进行仲裁。

B：太好了，陈先生。这笔交易做成功了，我们的会谈也圆满地结束了。
