[Q]: W: Mr. Block, I need to take a few days off because my parents are coming over to visit. M: But it's not really a good idea to take time off right now, you know. W: Well, I know. But they've never been to the UK before and they don't speak English. M: Hmm, you know there are thousands of tourists in London who can't speak English and they manage to get around. W: Yes, I know but they really expect me to be there. It's culture. Chinese parents expect their children to do things like this. M: I know, but truly if they care about your education, they'll understand. W: Well, do you think I could take maybe just two days off?

[Q]: W: Yes, sir. May I help you? M: I have a reservation for tonight. John Durgin. W: Just a moment, please. Let me check. That's right. You have a reservation for a two-room suite for tonight. M: I'm afraid there's been a mistake. I only reserve a single room, not a suite. W: I'm sorry, Mr. Durgin, but this is what is available. Your reservation arrived too late to have a single. There's a large conference in town this week and we're full up. M: Well, if that's the way it is, I'll have to take it. W: Please sign the register here. Your suite is 526. M: Thank you.
