Grace: excuse me, could you tell me which line I’m supposed to stand in to buy bubble wrap and to post a package?

Alexander: you can buy the bubble wrap here, but you’ll have to stand in line over here to post your paskage.

G: that’s a really long line. How long do you think it’ll take to get through all those people?

A: it takes about 3 minutes per person, so it’ll probably be about an hour’s wait.

G: can I buy stamps here?

A: sure. How many would you like?

G: I need 30 for my Chrismas cards.

A: are you sending them abroad?

G: twenty of them are going abroad to China to America.

A: do you have any going anywhere in the EU? If you do, those are less expensive.

G: no.

A: ok, here you go. That will be 18 pounds and seventy two pence.

G: and the bubble wrap?

A: that’s another quid.

G: thanks a lot. You’ve been very helpful.

打擾一下,請問我要排哪條隊伍可以買到氣泡襯墊包裝紙，然后寄包裹?
