4.5 Something Lost 丢失物品
W: Excuse me, could you help me?
M: Yes, what seems to be the problem?
W: Well. I was wondering if anyone has turned in a passport?
M: I am afraid not. Have you lost your passport?
W: I think so. I can't find it anywhere in my hotel room and I remember the last place I used it yesterday was in this department store.
M: Where exactly did you use your passport in the store?
W: In the shoe department. I had to show it to pay for these shoes with my traveler's cheques.
M: Well, let me call the shoe department to see if they’ve found a passport. Sorry, your passport hasn't turned up there either.
W: Then what shall I do?
M: You can fill in this lost property 1 report and I will keep my eye out for it. These kinds of things usually turn up eventually, but I suggest you contact your embassy 2 and tell them about your situation, so they can issue 3 you a new passport in case it doesn't show up.
W: You are right. Do you have a pen?
M: Here you are.
W: Oh, I seem to lose something every time I travel.

W：打扰一下，能不能帮我个忙？
M：好的，有什么问题吗？
W：我想知道有没有人交过来一本护照？
M：我想没有，你遗失了护照？
W：我想是的，我在饭店的房里都找不到。我记得昨天最后使用护照是在这家百货公司。
M：你在百货公司的什么具体地方用过护照呢？
W：在鞋子销售部，我用旅行支票买这双鞋子的时候必须给他们看护照。
M：对不起，那儿也没有人找到你的护照。
W：那我该怎么办呢？
M：你来填这张遗失报告表，我会替你留意的。像这样的东西，最后还是会找到的。但是我建议你跟你的大使馆联系一下并把你的情形告诉他们。万一你的护照找不到的话，他们会给你补发新护照。
W：你说得对，有没有笔？
M：请用。
W：唉，我好像每次旅行都会丢东西。
