Word about the Post Office I Elyn (E) Woman1 (W1) Woman2 (W2) E: Oh. Hi, welcome to Let's Talk. Today you've caug ht me at home. And I'm writing some checks because that 's how I pay my bills. Do you have bills to pay? Maybe if you're in school you don't have bills. But I bet you r parents have bills. And I bet they go to the Post Off ice because here in China I also go to the Post Office and sometimes to the bank to pay my bills. But in Ameri ca and Canada and in other Western countries you receiv e your bills in the mail and then once you have your bi lls you have to write a check. And so this morning I'm taking time to sit down and pay my bills. When I'm done with writing my checks I put the chec k in an envelope and write on the envelope and then I h ave to go to the Post Office. So let's have a look. We have a dialogue for you this morning of some people who had to go to the Post Office. Dialogue: W1: Jeanine, here's the stamp machine. How many sta mps did you need? W2: I'm not really sure. I need a few to pay some b ills and one to send a birthday card to my mom. W1: Well, you really need to decide before you put your money in the machine. If you put your money in, an d you wait too long, you won't get your change back. W2: Really? How much time do I have to make a choic e? W1: Well, you probably have a few minutes, but it's really better to be ready before you put your money in the machine. W2: I think a book of ten stamps will be fine. |
