在百货公司的失物招领处
At the lost-found office of deportment store Tom: Excuse me, could you help me? Lost Property clerk (L): Yes. What seems to be the problem? Tom: Well, I was wondering if anyone has turned in a passport. L: I'm afraid not. Have you lost your passport? Tom: I think so. I can't find it anywhere in my hotel room, and I remember the last place I used it yesterday was in this department store. L: where exactly did you use your passport in the store? Tom: In the suit-dress department. I had to show it to pay for these dresses with my traveler's checks. L: Well, let me call the suit-dress department to see if they've found a passport. (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. |
