　　Salesperson: Can I help you, sir?

　　Benjamin: Yes, please. I'm picking out some presents for my children and wife.

　　Salesperson: What kind of presents do you want?

　　Benjamin: Actually, I don't know exactly. Do you have anything recommended?

　　Salesperson: OK. How about some very cool sneakers for your children? Anyway, it won't cost you much. It's only around $59.95 for each pair. It might be cheaper than that in America.

　　Benjamin: Hey, How did you know I came from America?

　　Salesperson: Just a hunch, sir.

　　Benjamin: How much again?

　　Salesperson: $59.95.

　　Benjamin: That's really cheap for shoes like those. OK, I'll take 5 pairs.

　　Salesperson: Sorry, sir.

　　Benjamin: Why not?

　　Salesperson: Because in this duty-free shop, your total expenditure cannot be over $300 and you also have one more present to buy for your wife.

　　Benjamin: Oh, my God. I've totally forgotten about that. Anyway, I think she would like a bottle of perfume.

　　Salesperson: That's good. And I can also recommend you a good one. It's the brand of DKNY.

　　Benjamin: DKNY? That's very expensive in America. It costs nearly $70 for only 50ml.

　　Salesperson: It's $60 here.

　　Benjamin: That's very unbelievable. Is it fake?

　　Salesperson: Of course not, sir.

　　Benjamin: OK, I'll take one.

　　店员：有什么能够帮您的吗，先生?

　　本杰明：是的。我要给我的孩子跟妻子筛选一些礼物。

　　店员：您想要什么样的礼物?

　　店员：好的。给你的孩子们买双不错的跑鞋怎么样?而且也不是很贵。每双只有59.95美元。这会比在美国买廉价。

　　本杰明：你怎么知道我是从美国来的?

　　店员：只是直觉罢了，先生。

　　本杰明：多少钱来着?

　　店员：59.95美元。

　　本杰明：像这样的鞋确实卖得很便宜。好，那给我拿5双。

　　店员：对不起，先生。

　　本杰明：怎么了?

　　店员：因为在免税商店，你的总破费不能超过300美元，而且您还要给您的妻子买礼物。

　　本杰明：噢，天哪。我完全忘记了。我觉得她应该会喜好香水。

　　店员：这个主意不错。而且我也可能给你推荐一款不错的香水，是DKNY品牌的。

　　本杰明：DKNY?它在美国卖得很贵，50毫升的香水就要将近70美元。

　　店员：咱们这里只卖60美元。

　　本杰明：这太让人难以信任了，它是假的吗?

　　店员：当然不是啊，先生。

　　本杰明：那好，给我拿一瓶。
