兑换支票

(S = Mr. Schmidt, C = Clerk) C:Hello! May I help you? S:Yes, I hope so. I need some more cash for my visit in France. May I cash a traveler's check here? C:Of course you can. We'd be happy to cash it for you. S:I was going to cash it at the hotel, but one of my friends said that banks always give better exchange rates. I'm a schoolteacher and I have to save every cent I can. C:Well, any bank will cash it at our present traveler's check-buying rate, which we have listed here. Of course, our rate is somewhat better than hotels,they aren't really in the money exchange business although they will cash traveler's checks for their guests. S:You mean there's really not much of a difference? C:No, sir, not very much. S:Well, may I cash these two checks for $100 each? I think that will be enough. But everything is so expensive in Paris that I might have to come back and cash another one in a few days. C:Yes, I'll be happy to cash these for you. Would you mind countersigning them here? S:There are you. C:And will you please sign this foreign exchange request? I've already written down your name and address for you, but I will read your passport number. C: 您好, 您有什么要我帮忙的吗? S: 是的, 我是这样想的。 我还需要些现金供我在这里(法国)游览使用。 我可以在您这儿兑现旅游支票吗? C: 当然， 我很愿意为您效劳。 S: 我本来打算在旅馆兑现, 但我的一个朋友说银行通常有高一点的兑现率。 我是名教员,我不得不精打细算。 C: 噢, 任何银行都将按照当天买入旅游支票的兑换来兑现。 该兑换率我们已经列在这里了。 当然, 因为手续费的差异, 我们的兑换率比旅馆的稍高些。 您知道, 旅馆虽然为他们的客人兑换旅游支票, 但他们并不是专门从事货币兑换业务的。 S: 您是说, 实际上银行与旅馆的兑换率并不存在很大差异。 C: 是的, 先生. 差距并不很大。 S: 那么, 我可以把每张为100美元的两张支票兑现吗? 我想该够用了。 但是在巴黎什么东西都这么贵, 以至几天之内我可能还得回来兑现另一张支票。 C: 好的， 我很高兴为您效劳。 有劳您将支票副签一下，好妈? S: 给您。 C: 请您在这张外汇申请表上签字, 好吗? 我已经为您写好了姓名和地址, 但我还得看一下您的护照号码。 |
