对话
A: Yes, sir, can I help you?
B: Hi, how are you?
A: Pretty good, how about yourself?
B: Excellent. I’d like to send this letter to China
A: To China, OK. How soon would you like it to be there, sir?
B: What are my options?
A: OK, take a look at the screen right here. Just a moment. Here we go.
If you send it by global express, it is $19.00. If you send it by global
priority, that will be $5.00. If you send it normal airmail, it costs eighty
cents.
B: Well, let’s go cheap. I don’t have a lot of money.
A: That’s C80.00. We can do it. Would you like a stamp on it or a meter
strip?
B: Stamp.
A: OK, I will get two 40 cent stamps for you.
B: Thank you.
A: Here are a couple of 40 cent stamps. Just go ahead and put them on if
you would like.
