旅游英語實用口語：失物招領

　　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.

　　Tom: You're right. Do you have a pen?

　　L: Here you are.

　　Tom: Oh, I seem to lose something every time I travel.

　　在百貨公司的失物招領處

　　湯姆：對不起，能不能幫我一個忙?

　　失物管理員：好的。有什么問題嗎?

　　湯姆：我想知道是否有人交來一本護照。

　　管理員：恐怕沒有。你遺失了護照?

　　湯姆：我想是的。我在飯店的房間里都找不到。我記得昨天最后用護照的地方是在這百貨公司。

　　管理員：你在百貨公司什么確切的地方用過護照呢?

　　湯姆：在女裝銷售部。我用信用卡買衣服的時候必須給他們看護照。

　　管理員：這樣的話，我打電話給該部門，看看他們有沒有撿到護照。

　　(一分鐘之后)

　　管理員：對不起——你的護照也沒被交到那邊。

　　湯姆：那我該怎么辦呢?

　　管理員：你來填這張遺失報告表，我會替你留意的。像這樣的東西，最后總是會出現(xiàn)的。但我建議你跟你們的大使館聯(lián)系并把你的情形告訴他們。萬一你的護照找不到的話，他們會給你補發(fā)新護照的。
