A: Hello B: Hello, where would you like to go? A: I’d like to go to the Blue Hotel please. B: I don’t know where that is. A: It is on the corner of 23rd street and Park Avenue. B: Okay, let’s go. A: How much is the fare? B: It is $8.50. A: Here is 10 dollars. Keep the change. B: Thank you. A: Good-bye.
keep 保留 Keep the change 把零錢留着 這 句話在你給為你服務人的錢的時候很常用。在美國給服務人員小費是個習慣。這些服務行業的人員包括餐館的招待員﹐理髮店的理髮員﹐旅館為你提行李的服務員﹑ 和出租車司機。小費的數量一般是花錢總數的 15% 和 20% . 所以如果出租車的費用是 $8.50, 你給 $10 就可以了﹐如果你的理髮費是 $10 呢﹐你就交 $12. 如果你的飯錢是 $16﹐ 你給 $20 就比較合適。給餐館的服務員小費很重要﹐因為這些人掙的工資很低﹐全靠小費生活了。
A: Excuse me. A: What line is this? A: I want to go to the Chinatown station. A: Thank you.
