【在生活中學習語言】A Complaint 顧客抱怨
2008年11月30日蘋果日報蘋果派生活美語
對話
Manager︰What seems to be the problem, ma'am?
經理︰小姐,出了什麼問題嗎?
Customer︰I got my hair cut by Becky yesterday, but I think it looks terrible on me.
顧客︰昨天貝琪幫我剪頭髮,可是我覺得它看起來醜斃了。
Manager︰Becky is one of our best stylists. Maybe the haircut was too much of a change for you.
經理︰貝琪是我們最棒的髮型師之一。也許這個髮型對您來說改變太大了。
Customer︰No. I actually found it was uneven when I examined it in the mirror at home. I demand my money back right now.
顧客︰才不是。我在家照鏡子檢查時,發現它竟然像狗啃的一樣。我要求現在就退費。
Manager︰I'm sorry, ma'am. We don't give refunds, but I can have one of our other stylists cut your hair again if you want.
經理︰小姐,很抱歉。我們不退費的,但若您願意的話,我可以叫我們另一位髮型師替您再剪一次。
