职场英语|兑换支票

C:Hello! May I help you?
S:Yes, I hope so. I need some more cash for my visit in France. May I cash a traveler's check here?
C:Of course you can. We'd be happy to cash it for you.
S:I was going to cash it at the hotel, but one of my friends said that banks always give better exchange rates. I'm a schoolteacher and I have to save every cent I can.
C:Well, any bank will cash it at our present traveler's check-buying rate, which we have listed here. Of course, our rate is somewhat1 better than hotels,they aren't really in the money exchange business although they will cash traveler's checks for their guests.
S:You mean there's really not much of a difference?
C:No, sir, not very much.
S:Well, may I cash these two checks for $100 each? I think that will be enough. But everything is so expensive in Paris that I might have to come back and cash another one in a few days.
C:Yes, I'll be happy to cash these for you. Would you mind countersigning2 them here?
S:There are you.
C:And will you please sign this foreign exchange request? I've already written down your name and address for you, but I will read your passport number.


C: 你好, 你有哪些要我帮忙的吗?
S: 是的, 我是如此想的。 我还需要些现金供我在这里游览用。 我可以在你这儿兑现旅游支票吗?
C: 当然， 我非常想为你效劳。
S: 我本来计划在旅馆兑现, 但我的一个朋友说银行一般有高中一年级点的兑现率。 我是名教员,我不能不精打细算。
C: 噢, 任何银行都将根据当天买入旅游支票的兑换来兑现。 该兑换率大家已经列在这里了。 当然, 由于手续费的差异, 大家的兑换率比旅馆的稍高些。 你了解, 旅馆虽然为他们的客人兑换旅游支票, 但他们并非专门从事货币兑换业务的。
S: 你是说, 事实上银行与旅馆的兑换率并没有非常大差异。
C: 是的, 先生. 差距并不非常大。
S: 那样, 我可以把每张为100USD的两张支票兑现吗? 我想该够用了。 但在巴黎什么东西都这么贵, 以至几天之内我可能还要回来兑现另一张支票。
C: 好的， 我非常高兴为你效劳。 有劳你将支票副签一下，好妈?
S: 给你。
C: 请你在这张外汇申请表上签字, 怎么样? 我已经为你写好了名字和地址, 但我还要看一下你的护照号码。
