Lena: Yes. I'm in room 8715. The room's insulation is too bad. My husband and I couldn't get any real sleep last night. There was a construction going on all night outside. It's just a nightmare for us! 

 

Waitress: I'm terribly sorry. 

 

Lena: Anyway, I'd like to change a room. Do you have a quiet double-room available now? 

 

Waitress: A minute, please. Let me check on the computer to see if there is any room available. What about this one? It's on the sunny side with a big balcony. And it's a pretty quiet room. 

 

Lena: Sounds good. Can I have a look at it first? 

 

Waitress: Sure. It's 8736. Come with me. 

 

Waitress: Here it is. Come on in, Ma'am. 

 

Lena: Nice! I'll take this one. I think I can have a good sleep. 

 

Waitress: That's for sure, Ma'ma. Everything is taken care of. 

 

Lena: thank you very much. 

 

Waitress: I think you may need a porter with your belongings, Ma'ma. 

 

Lena: I'll appreciate that. Thank you.

服务生：早上好，女士。有什么能为您效劳的吗？ 

 

蕾娜：我住在8715房间。房间的隔音设备太差了。我和我先生昨晚都没睡好觉。外面整晚都在施工。那对于我们来讲简直是噩梦。 

 

服务生：真的很抱歉。 

 

蕾娜：不管怎样，我要求换一个房间。你们现在还有安静的双人间吗？ 

 

服务生：请稍等。让我在电脑上查一下看看有没有空余的房间。这间怎么样？朝阳，带一个大阳台，而且非常安静。 

 

蕾娜：听起来不错。我可以看一下吗？ 

 

服务生：当然。房间号是8736。请跟我来。 

 

服务生：就是这一间。请进来，女士。 

 

蕾娜：很不错。我就要这间吧？我想今晚我能睡个好觉了。 

 

服务生：那是当然的，女士。一切都会安排妥当的。 

 

蕾娜：非常感谢。 

 

服务生：我觉得您会需要一位服务生帮您搬东西（到这个新房间）。 

 

蕾娜：我很感激。谢谢。
