Waitress: Good morning, Ma’ma. Can I help you?

Lena: Yes. I’m in room 8715. The room’s insulation is too bad. My husband and I couldn’t get any real sleep last night. There was a construction going on all night outside. It’s just a nightmare for us!

Waitress: I’m terribly sorry.

Lena: Anyway, I’d like a change a room. Do you have a quiet double-room available now?

Waitress: A minute, please. Let me check on the computer to see if there is any room available. What about this one? It’s on the sunny side with a big balcony. And it’s a pretty quiet room.

Lena: Sounds good. Can I have a look at it first?

Waitress: Sure. It’s 8736. Come with me.

Waitress: Here it is. Come on in, Ma’am.

Lena: Nice! I’ll talk this one. I think I can have a good sleep.

Waitress: That’s for sure, Ma’ma. Everything is taken care of.

Lena: thank you very much.

Waitress: I think you may need a porter with your belongings, Ma’ma.

Lena: I’ll appreciate that. Thank you.

服務生：早上好，女士。有什么能為您效勞的嗎?

蕾娜：我住在8715房間。房間的隔音設備太差了。我和我先生昨晚都沒睡好覺。外面整晚都在施工。那對于我們來講簡直是噩夢。

服務生：真的很抱歉。

蕾娜：不管怎樣，我要求換一個房間。你們現在還有安靜的雙人間嗎?

服務生：請稍等。讓我在電腦上查一下看看有沒有空余的房間。這間怎么樣?朝陽，帶一個大陽臺，而且非常安靜。

蕾娜：聽起來不錯。我可以看一下嗎?

服務生：當然。房間號是8736。請跟我來。

服務生：就是這一間。請進來，女士。

蕾娜：很不錯。我就要這間吧?我想今晚我能睡個好覺了。

服務生：那是當然的，女士。一切都會安排妥當的。

蕾娜：非常感謝。

服務生：我覺得您會需要一位服務生幫您搬東西(到這個新房間)。

蕾娜：我很感激。謝謝。
