(a minute later) l: sorry-your passport’s not been turned in there, either. tom: then what shall i do? l: you can fill in this lost property report, and i’ll keep my eye out for it. those kinds of things usually turn up eventually, but i suggest you contact your eMBAssy and tell them about your situation, so they can issue you a new passport in case it doesn’t show up. tom: you’re right. do you have a pen? l: here you are. tom: oh, i seem to lose something every time i travel. 在百货公司的失物招领处 汤姆:对不起,能不能帮我一个忙? 失物管理员:好的。有什么问题吗? 汤姆:我想知道是否有人交来一本护照。 管理员:恐怕没有。你遗失了护照? 汤姆:我想是的。我在饭店的房间里都找不到。我记得昨天最后用护照的地方是在这百货公司。 管理员:你在百货公司什么确切的地方用过护照呢? 汤姆:在女装销售部。我用信用卡买衣服的时候必须给他们看护照。 管理员:这样的话,我打电话给该部门,看看他们有没有捡到护照。 (一分钟之后) 管理员:对不起---你的护照也没被交到那边。 汤姆:那我该怎么办呢? 管理员:你来填这张遗失报告表,我会替你留意的。像这样的东西,最后总是会出现的。但我建议你跟你们的大使馆联系并把你的情形告诉他们。万一你的护照找不到的话,他们会给你补发新护照的。 |
