At the lost-found office of deportment store

Tom: Excuse me, could you help me?
Lost Property clerk (L): Yes. What seems to be the problem?
Tom: Well, I was wondering if anyone has turned in a passport.
L: I'm afraid not. Have you lost your passport?
Tom: 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.
L: where exactly did you use your passport in the store?
Tom: In the suit-dress department. I had to show it to pay for these dresses with my traveler's checks.L: Well, let me call the suit-dress department to see if they've found a passport.
(A minute later)
L: Sorry-your passport's not been turned in there, either.
Tom: Then what shall I do?
L: You can fill in this lost property report, and I'll keep my eye out for it. Those kinds of things usually turn up eventually, but I suggest you contact your embassy and tell them about your situation, so they can issue you a new passport in case it doesn't show up.
Tom: You're right. Do you have a pen?
L: Here you are.
Tom: Oh, I seem to lose something every time I travel.

在百货公司的失物招领处

汤姆：对不起，能不能帮我一个忙？
失物管理员：好的。有什么问题吗？
汤姆：我想知道是否有人交来一本护照。
管理员：恐怕没有。你遗失了护照？
汤姆：我想是的。我在饭店的房间里都找不到。我记得昨天最后用护照的地方是在这百货公司。
管理员：你在百货公司什么确切的地方用过护照呢？
汤姆：在女装销售部。我用信用卡买衣服的时候必须给他们看护照。
管理员：这样的话，我打电话给该部门，看看他们有没有捡到护照。
（一分钟之后）
管理员：对不起---你的护照也没被交到那边。
汤姆：那我该怎么办呢？
管理员：你来填这张遗失报告表，我会替你留意的。像这样的东西，最后总是会出现的。但我建议你跟你们的大使馆联系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的。
