31. Shopping in the Dime Store 在低价商店购物 A: Do you carry black ink?
B: The ink should be next to the paper clips and thumb tacks in the
stationary section, sir.
A: I've looked, but I didn't see any black ink.
B: Then I'm afraid there's none in stock.
A: Well, I'll settle for blue-black. I'll also take a dozen airmail
envelopes.
B: They come in packages of ten or twenty.
A: Give me a package of twenty, then. And where do I find shoelaces?
B: On counter three.
A: Thank you. I never can find my way around this store.
B: I know. It took me three weeks, and I work here. Notes
