字號:

泰瑞換完了澳元,有想兌換一些旅行支票。他問了兌換比率、服務(wù)費,復(fù)簽完后,發(fā)現(xiàn)自己竟然忘了帶護(hù)照,這下又該怎么辦呢?
    Bank clerk: May I help you?
    Terry: Yes, can I cash my traveler's check here?
    Bank clerk: Of course, we'd be happy to cash it for you.
    Terry: What's the cashing rate?
    Bank clerk: Well, it's listed on the electronic board on the left. We cash it at present traveler's check buying rate.
    Terry: Oh, I see. How much it the service charge?
    Bank clerk: The service charge is 1% of the total amount of the check.
    Terry: Well, I'd like to cash these four checks for $100 each.
    Bank clerk: Would you please countersign them here?
    Terry: OK, there you are.
    Bank clerk: And your passport please.
    Terry: Oh, I forgot to bring it. It is in my hotel room.
    Bank clerk: Sorry, sir. We can't cash the checks for you without your passport.
    Terry: Well, thanks. I will come again this afternoon, then.
    銀行職員:請問有什么可以幫助您的?
    泰瑞:是的,我能在這兒兌換我的旅行支票嗎?
    銀行職員:當(dāng)然啦,我們很高興能為您兌換。
    泰瑞:兌換的比率是多少?
    銀行職員:比率都列在左邊的電子榜上。我們是以現(xiàn)在旅行支票的買入比率兌換。
    泰瑞:哦,我知道了。那服務(wù)費是多少?
    銀行職員:服務(wù)費是支票總額的1%。
    泰瑞:好的,我想換四張100美元的旅行支票。
    銀行職員:您能在這兒復(fù)簽一下嗎?
    泰瑞:好的,簽好了。
    銀行職員:您的護(hù)照?
    泰瑞:哦,我忘帶了。它在我的旅館房間里。
    銀行職員:對不起,先生。沒有護(hù)照我們不能為您兌換。
    泰瑞:謝謝,那我下午再來。
