CARL: Hello. Excuse me.
SALLY: Yes. Can I help you?
CARL: Do you remember me? I just had lunch here a half hour ago.
SALLY: Of course I remember you.
CARL: I think I lost my wallet here.
SALLY: Oh, no. Really? I didn't see anything.
CARL: Really? You didn't find a wallet?
SALLY: No, I didn't. Would you like to go look by the table with me?
CARL: Yes, I would. It's not here. And it's not on the floor.
Has anyone sat at this table since we left?
SALLY: No. It's been empty the whole time.
CARL: Hmm. I don't know how it could have happened.
SALLY: I remember, sir, that your friend took the bill.
You didn't pay for the lunch yourself, did you?
CARL: No. My friend did.
SALLY: Then are you sure you took your wallet out of your pocket while you were here?
CARL: No, I'm not sure. But I usually take out my wallet when I sit down.
It's uncomfortable to sit on it. So I usually put it next to me on the table.
SALLY: Maybe you lost it before you came here. Or maybe you left it at home.
CARL: I don't think it's at home. I think I had it when I left the house.
But what should I do?
SALLY: Well, the first thing you should do is make sure it's not at home.
Then, if it isn't, you need to call your credit card companies and cancel your cards.
Next, you need to replace whatever you lost , your driver's license, things like that.
CARL: Should I call the police?
SALLY: You can if you want. But the police usually don't do anything about lost wallets.
CARL: Hmm. I'll go home and check. Maybe you're right. Maybe it's at home.
SALLY: I'm sorry we couldn't find it, sir.
CARL: Thanks for your help.

卡尔：哈???胛室幌隆?BR>莎莉：请说，我能帮你吗？
卡尔：你记得我吗？刚刚一小时前我在这里吃午餐。
莎莉：当然我记得你。
卡尔：我的皮夹掉在这里。
莎莉：不会吧，真的吗？我没有看到。
卡尔：真的吗？你没发现到皮夹？
莎莉：没有。你要跟我到桌子那边看看吗？
卡尔：好的。不在这里，也不在地上。
我们走后这一桌有人坐吗？
莎莉：没有，一直是空着的。
卡尔：我不知道怎么会这样。
莎莉：先生，我记得是你朋友付帐的。
你没有付自己的午餐钱，不是吗？
卡尔：是的，是我朋友付的。
莎莉：那么你确定在这里你曾从口袋拿出皮夹来吗？
卡尔：我不确定。但是通常我坐下来时，会把皮夹拿出来。
坐在上面很不舒服，所以通常我把它放在桌子上的旁边。
莎莉：可能你来这里之前就掉了，或是你遗忘在家里。
卡尔：我想不会在家里，我记得出门时带着。
我该怎么办呢？
莎莉：首先你要确定不是放在家里。
如果不是，你要打电话到信用卡公司取消信用卡。
接下来你要重办遗失的证件，像是驾照之类的东西。
卡尔：要报警吗？
莎莉：如果你要的话可以。但是警察通常不处理皮夹遗失的案件。
卡尔：我会回家找找看。也许你是对的，也许是放在家里。
莎莉：很抱歉，我们没有找到,先生。
卡尔：谢谢你的帮忙。
