 Checking In 辦理住宿登記 |
Joanne checks into a hotel.
瓊安在飯店登記住宿。 |
| Clerk : |
Good morning ma’am. Would you like to check in? |
| |
早安，女士。您要辦理住宿登記了嗎？ |
| Joanne : |
Yes, I would. Are there still nonsmoking rooms available? |
| |
是的。請問一下，禁菸樓層還有空房間嗎？ |
| Clerk : |
Don’t worry, you haven’t missed the boat. There are plenty. |
| |
別擔心，您並沒有錯過。我們還有許多空房間呢。 |
| Joanne : |
That’s good news; if there were no rooms here I’m sure I’d lose my cool. My husband and I have been looking for a hotel all day! How much is one night here? |
| |
太好了；若是沒有空房間的話，我可能會不知所措。我和我先生整天都在找飯店投宿！請問住宿一晚的費用是多少錢？ |
| Clerk : |
Each night is $95 for a double room. I’ll just need to see some ID. |
| |
雙人房每晚是95元。我需要查看您的身分證。 |
| Joanne : |
That’s a great price. Oh no, I think I left my ID with my husband. May I show it to you later? |
| |
價錢很合理。噢，不會吧，我想我的身分證在我先生那裡。我能夠等一下再給你看嗎？ |
| Clerk : |
No problem. I’ll take you at your word for now—but please remember to stop by later on. |
| |
沒關係，我相信您──但稍後請務必拿過來。 |
| Joanne : |
Of course, you can be sure I won’t cop out. |
| |
放心，我絕不會逃避責任的。 |
| Clerk : |
Now, here’s your key. Remember you must check out by 10:30 tomorrow morning. |
| |
這是您的鑰匙。請您記得明天早上10點30分前要辦理退房。 |
| Joanne : |
Is it possible to leave open tomorrow night, too? We may stay two nights if this hotel serves our purpose. |
| |
我們可以明天晚上才決定嗎？如果這裡符合我們的需求，我們可能會待兩個晚上。 |
| Clerk : |
That’s fine. |
| |
好的。 |
