W: Also, the window won't open ...

M: Won't it, madam？ I'll get George to come and look at it.

W: ... and I can't get any hot water in the shower.

M: Ah, perhaps you didn't run the water long enough, madam.

W: I ran it for four or five minutes. That should be long enough.

M: George ... George ... Hart, will you go up to room 43 ... and check the shower and see if you can open the window ...

W: Look, I'm sorry but I'd like another room.

M: Shall we see if we can sort out these little difficulties first, madam？

W: As far as room 43 is concerned, I don't mind what you do, but I want a clean room, in reasonable decorative order, with windows that open and a shower that works.

M: Let me see ... I can let you have a double room, madam.

W: I don't want a double room. I want a single room.

M: I'm sorry, madam, but I'm afraid 43 is the only single room available at the moment. However, I could have a word with the manager when he comes in.

W: I think you'd better.

M: Well, it depends on the traffic, but shouldn't toke more than twenty minutes for the average driver. And I'm not average. So we should be able to cruise through traffic and get there in less than twelve minutes.

M: Around 6:00 o'clock.

W: Do you have the time？

M: Yeah. It's half past four. Hi, this is your first time to the city, right？

W: Yeah.How did you know？

M: Well, you can tell tourists from a mile away in this city because they walk down the street looking straight up at the tall buildings.

W: Was it that obvious？

M: Well...

W: Oh, before I forget, can you recommend any good restaurant downtown that offer meals at a reasonable price？

M: Umm...well, the Mexican restaurant, La Fajita, is fantastic. It's not as inexpensive as other places I know, but the decoration is very authentic, and theportions are larger than most places I've been to.

W: Sounds great! How do I get there from the museum？

M: Well, you can take the subway right outside the museum. There are buses that run that way, but you would have to transfer a couple of times. And there are taxis too, but they don't run by the museum that often.

M: Okay. Thank you so much.
