desk. I have the telephone next to the fax machine on the right side of my desk.
My computer is on the center of my desk with the monitor directly in front of me. I
have a comfortable office chair to sit on and some pictures of my family between
the computer and the telephone. In order to help me read, I also have a lamp near
my computer which I use in the evening if I work late. There is plenty of paper in
one of the cabinet drawers. There are also staples and a stapler, paper clips,
highlighters, pens and erasers in the other drawer. In the room, there is a
comfortable armchair and a sofa to sit on. I also have a low table in front of the
sofa on which there are some industry magazines.

Asking for things. (Pidiendo…)
source: http://www.english-at-home.com/real-life-english/how-to-ask-for-things-in-english/

Translate

Interrupting people to ask them for something

Excuse me…

…. Do you know if…?


…. Do you have…?
…. Do you accept …. (credit cards)?
…. Is this the right way for…. (the Post Office)?
…. Could you tell me if …. (there's a Post Office near here)?

In more formal situations

Excuse me…

…. Would you mind …. (keeping an eye on my luggage?)


…. I wonder if you could …. (move your suitcase a little.)

Responding to questions

You ask for something, then the person you have asked needs more information. He or she
asks you a question. If you haven't expected this, you can "play for time" – say something to
give you time to think. Say something like "Oh", "Ah", "Um", or "Er" to give you a second or
two to formulate an answer. Remember, complete silence makes the other person feel uneasy!

You: "Two tickets to Guadalajara, please."


Clerk: "Single or return?"
You: "Um, return please. We're coming back tomorrow."

(You are at the Exchange Office)


Clerk: How would you like your money?
You: Oh, er, three tens and a five, please.

38
You: "Hello. Can I have a leaflet about London museums, please."
Clerk: "Sure. Anything else?"
You: "Um, do you have any information about musicals?"

Tips

When you ask someone for something, or you ask them to do something for you, it is essential
to be as polite as possible. Here are some ways that you can be polite.

Say hello

A "hello" and a smile go a long way! Say "hello" at the beginning of your request.

"Hello. (I'd like) a travel card, please."

In more formal situations, you can say "Good morning", "Good afternoon" or "Good evening".
(Remember, we only say "Good night" if we're saying "Good bye" at the end of the day.)

"Good evening. We've booked a table for four."

Remember "please" and "thank you"

"Please" normally goes at the end of the sentence:

"Two tickets please."


"Can you give me directions to Oxford Street, please."

Say "thank you" after you have received something:

"Here's your change."


"Thank you."

You can use "Yes, please" or "No, thank you" in response to a question:

"Would you like salad with your pizza?"


"Yes, please" or "No, thank you."

Say "excuse me"

If you ask someone who is doing something else, remember to say "excuse me":

"Excuse me, do yo have this dress in a smaller size?" (In a shop)


"Excuse me, do you know where the nearest bank is?" (On the street)

Structure of an example conversation

1. Clerk greets you

(Good morning.) How can I help you?


What can I do for you?
39
2. You ask for something

Hello. I'd like some information about…


Can I have….
Three stamps for Europe, please.

3. Clerk asks you a question

Single or return?
Air-mail or surface mail?

4. You answer

Oh, er, single thanks.


Um, let me see. Air-mail please.

5. Clerk asks you if you need anything else

Will that be all?


(Is there) anything else?

6. You answer

Ah, actually I'd also like…


No, that's it thanks / thank you.

Carpenters

Carpenters are involved in the construction of many different types of


structures such as bridges or large buildings. Some carpenters change
employers each time they finish a construction job. The duties of a
carpenter differ just about each time they accept employment. In most
40
cases, carpenters work in many different locations hundred miles away
each year.

Carpentry is a very hard outdoor profession. Carpenters endure


climbing, bending, and heavy laborious work. Often they put
themselves at risk of injury working with sharp tools and they work in
areas where it is all too easy to fall or slip.

ANSWER THE QUESTIONS:

1. Which of following may a carpenter do in a normal day of work?

a. type letters b. package and ship mail

c. answer phones d. help build a bridge

2. What is unique about a Carpenters job?

a. They do the same thing all day.

b. They something different each new job they receive.

c. They always work for the same person throughout their career.

3. _______________________________

Credit Cards

America's 78 million credit cardholders carried an average balance of $7,564


last year. The cost in interest and fees amounted to more than $1,000 for the
typical budget. If you just said, "Budget - what budget?" you know what I
mean. Truth is most of us go on spending sprees from time to time.

But, when power shopping creates the illusion of success, even as debts spiral
out of control, it has become a weakness. Some obvious signs that spending is
out of control include making minimum payments on your credit cards, late
fees, bounced checks, lack of a budget and loss of sleep over money worries.

Answer the question using the information from the paragraph.

1. How many people in America have credit cards? On the average how much do they
put on their cards?

4. Do you feel as if the author may feel that shopping is bad for our health? Explain.

5. Counting all of the credit card holders in America, how much do Americans spend
just on interest?
