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：有什么可以帮您的吗，先生？

 

本杰明：是的。我要给我的孩子和妻子挑选一些礼物。

 

店员：您想要什么样的礼物？

 

本杰明：事实上，我自己也不是很清楚。你有什么可以推荐的吗？

 

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。每双只要59.95美元。这会比在美国买便宜。

 

本杰明：你怎么知道我是从美国来的？

 

店员：只是直觉而已，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，您的总消费不能超过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。我觉得她应该会喜欢香水。

 

店员：这个主意不错。而且我也可以给您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：我们这里只卖60美元。

 

本杰明：这太让人难以置信了，它是假的吗？

 

店员：当然不是啊，先生。

 

本杰明：那好，给我拿一瓶。
