Amber 1 goes to the Post Office to buy stamps for the letter she has just written. It's really not so different from what she is used to back home!

  Clerk: Good afternoon, miss. How can I help you?

  Amber: Good afternoon. I'd like to send a letter to China. How much does it cost?

  Clerk: We'll need to weigh it first. (Weighs the letter) It would be $2.10. Would you like insurance on the contents of your letter?

  Amber: No, this letter is nothing special. Just a letter to my mom. Here's a 5. (Hands the clerk the money) About how long do you think it'll take to get to China?

  Clerk: About a week. Your change is $2.90.

  Amber: thank you very much.

  Clerk: Thank you for choosing the United 2 States Postal 3 Service. Have a nice day.

  Amber刚写完一封信,她来到邮局买了些邮票准备把信寄出去。这和她所习惯的中国邮寄方式并没有太大的区别。

  Clerk:下午好,小姐,我可以帮助你吗?

  Amber:下午好,我想寄封信到中国要多少钱?

  Clerk:我们要先称一下。(称了一下信)是两美圆十美分。你想不想加保?

  Amber:不用了,也不是很重要,只不过是给我妈妈而已。给你五美元。(把钱递给服务员)大概多久才能到?

  Clerk:大概要一个星期。这个是你的零钱是2美元90美分。

  Amber:谢谢你

  Clerk:感谢你使用"美国邮政",祝你今天过得愉快。
