Losing a Passport While Traveling
Nina: Oh, my God! I can’t find my passport. I never should have put it in my purse. I’m sure a pickpocket 1 took it.
Serge: Calm down. Maybe you just misplaced it. Let’s turn out all of your pockets and search for it before we panic.
Nina: I know it’s gone. I know it! Flag down the police. We have to file a police report.
Serge: If your passport has been stolen, we need to find the U.S. embassy 2.
Nina: We’re supposed to continue on to the next country on our tour tomorrow. We’re going to get left behind!
Serge: Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. If we need to find a U.S. embassy and apply for a temporary passport, we’ll do that.
Nina: It’s Saturday! We won’t get any help at the embassy until Monday. We’ll be stuck here.
Serge: It’ll take as long as it takes. Now, let’s search through all of your belongings 3 before we do anything else.
Nina: I just thought of something.
Serge: What?
Nina: I think I may have left it in the hotel room.
Serge: You think you may have left it in the hotel room.
Nina: Isn’t that good news? All that worry for nothing.
Serge: Let’s not count our chickens. You might have another inspiration 4.
