Lesson Three Explaining Charge for Call that Never Went through
第三課 向客人解釋沒有打通電話收費的原因
G:There seems to be a mistake here on my phone bill. I did try to make a phone call to Malaysia on this date,but I never got through. I was charged for one minute,but I never talked to anyone.
旅客:我的電話賬單好像搞錯了。在這天,我確實想要往馬來西亞打一個電話,但是沒有打通。張單上卻記錄了一分鐘的費用,可是我并沒有和任何人通話。
C:Yes,I seeI can explain that. I'm afraid there is a charge just for using the overseas line even if you don't get through/even if the call doesn't go through. If you use the line for more than six seconds,the minimum charge is one minute.
店員:是的,我明白。我可以給您解釋一下。這是收取越洋電話線路的費用,即使您沒有打通電話。如果您使用電話線路超過秒鐘,低的費用是按一分鐘計算的。
G:WowAll rightI guess I'll have to pay it then
旅客:噢,那好吧。我想我得付費了。
