Conversation One

M: Good morning. May I help you?

W: I'd like to rent a car, please.

M: OK. Full-size, mid-size or compact?

W: Full-size, please. What's the rate?

M: $78 a day with unlimited mile.

W: How about the mid-size?

M: $69 a day with unlimited mile. And how about the insurance?

W: This would be fine.And I'd like to have life and accident insurance just in case.

M: If you want full coverage insurance, it will be $8 per day.

It includes collision damage and personal accident insurance.

W: All right. I'll take it.

M: Here is our list of rent cars. Err...mid-size...

OK. Please choose a car model in this section.

W: How about this red one? Err...This black one is also desirable.

Finally, I choose the red one.

M: All right. How many days would you like to use it?

W: For two days. Oh, no. Sorry, let me check, it's three days from today.

M: I'll help you register now.

May I see your driver's license and credit card please? It's essential.

W: Yes, it is.

M: How would you like to pay?

If you pay in advance, you can get 1% discount and two-hour free drive.

W: That sounds attractive. I'll pay in advance.

M: Thank you. Please fill in this form.

Can you check this box, and put your initials here and again here.

W: I've done. Thank you for your help.

By the way, do you offer repairing service on site?

M: It depends where it is. We don't provide any service on express way or area.

W: I see. Bye-bye.

Conversation Two

W: Can I help you?

M：Yes. I'd like to borrow the books about economic theory and public administration.

W: Just a second. I'll see if I can find them for you.

M: Thanks.

W: This is public administration.

Here you are. But everything about economic theory was already checked out

and I find some about economic principle.

M: The economic principle is not what I want. Thank you all the same.

Could you please help me find new version about economy and law?

W: OK. Wait for a few minutes. Is this the book you want?

M: No. Not this kind. But I will keep it.

W: Don't account any ounce! I almost find every corner of the library.

If you want to borrow some popular book, you have to be here many times.

You know, now, fewer books and more students in our college.

M: I don't mean that. Sorry.

W: Nothing. You have to return these two books within 30 days.

M: OK, I see. But what happens if I've not finished reading them within a month,

for I need some important information in these books?

W: You can come in and renew them unless someone else has reserved them.

You can also register in the e-library of our school,

and you can read every book in the library on-line at any time.

M: OK. That's very convenient, right? Thank you very much.
