他正向一位東銀行職員詢問有關匯了美元支票事宜。
Tanaka:I have a bill from the publisher for $32.75.The publisher is in New York and I need a check to send him .
田中：我這里有一張來自出版商的32美元75美元的帳單，該出版商在紐約，我需要寄給他一張支票，
Can I get it here?
我能在這里辦理支票嗎?
Clerk:Yes,Mr.Tanaka.We can give you a check to send or we can issue a bank transfer direct to the publisher's bank ,
職員：可以的，田中先生。我們可以提供給您一張可寄出去的支票，或者，如果您知道該出版商與那里的哪家銀行有業務關系，
if you know what bank they do business with .
我們可以直接給該出版商的銀行出一個銀行轉帳單。
T:I am afraid I don't know.The only thing I have is this bill with publisher's name and address on it .
田中：恐怕我不知道這一點，我現有的就是這張有出版商的姓名和住址的帳單。
C:Well,I assume a regular remittance check will be fine .You don't need to cable the money ,do you ?
職員：那么，我估計使用一張正式的匯款支票就可以了，您不需要把錢電匯，對嗎?
T:No ,I don't think so .I just received the bill yesterday and there is no deadline mentioned .
田中：是的，我想不需要。我昨天剛剛接到帳單，單子上沒有提到期限問題。
C:Well,let's issue a dollar remittance check that you can mail to them .
職員：那么，我們就開出一張您能夠郵寄給對方的美元匯款支票。
Please fill out the remittance request with the name and address of the payee,your name and address,
請您填寫一下匯款申請單，請填上收款人的姓名和住址、您的姓名和住址、
the amount and the reason for the remittance .
匯款額及理由。
T:What reason do I give?
田中：我寫什么理由呢?
C:Just say magazine subscription.That will be fine.
職員：只要寫預訂雜志就可以了。
T:Can I wait for the check?I mean,does it take long?
田中：我可以等著開這張支票嗎?我的意思是說，開支票要用很長的時間嗎?
C:No,just a few moments.I'll figure out the exchange rate and service charge and then type up the check for you .
職員：不用，只要等一會兒就行。我需要計算出匯率、手續費，然后為您把支票打印出來。
I have to check our list of correspondent banks in the area to list a convenient drawee bank .
我還要查出我們所在地區往來行的名單，列出一個付款方便的銀行。
T:Thank you .I'll read one of my magazines while I wait.
田中：謝謝，我一邊等著您辦手續，一邊看我帶來的雜志。
