Julia Jackson just rented an apartment in a big apartment complex. Now she is talking to Ed Wilson, the maintenance worker who is on duty.
J=Julia E= Ed
J:Hi! This is Julia Jackson, and I just moved into Apartment 315.
E:Hi! I'm Ed Wilson. How can I help you
J:Well, some of the household appliances aren't working properly, and I was wondering if you could help me with them.
E:Certainly. What needs to be repaired
J:O.K., the oven is not hot enough, the air conditioner does not provide enough cool air, and one ceiling light doesn't work even after I changed the light bulb.
E:Maybe the light needs a new starter. What else
J:I also have a leaky faucet, the toilet is blocked, and some of the bathroom wall tiles are missing.
E:Don't worry about that. We have some spare tiles. I'll check everything first, and if necessary, I will call a plumber or an electrician.
J:I appreciate that very much. So, when is a good time for you to come
E:I'll be there in five minutes.
茱莉亞.傑森剛在一座公寓大樓租了間公寓。現在她正和值班的維修工艾德.威爾森交談。
J=茱莉亞 E=艾德
茱莉亞:嗨!我是茱莉亞.傑森,我剛搬進了315號。
艾德:嗨!我是艾德.威爾森,需要哪些服務嗎?
茱莉亞:是這樣的,有些電器有點問題,我想知道你們是不是可以幫我看一下。
艾德:當然,您那裡有什麼需要修理的呢?
茱莉亞:嗯,就是烤箱不夠熱,冷氣機不夠冷,而且有個天花板的燈,即使我換了燈泡還是不亮。
艾德:也許只需要換個啟動器就好。還有其他的嗎?
茱莉亞:還有我們有個水龍頭漏水,馬桶塞住了,而且有些浴室壁磚掉了。
艾德:不用擔心,我們有備存一些磁磚。我會每項先檢查一下,如果有需要,我會打電話給水管工人或電工來。
茱莉亞:那就謝謝您了。您什麼時候方便過來呢?
艾德:我五分鐘後就會到那裡。
