Say, excuse me, there aren’t enough rooms for us upstairs.

There aren’t enough? How is that possible? We made all the arrangements.

It's true. In all there are twenty-three people in our tour group. You
just said that we’re all staying on the seventh floor, in fourteen rooms
altogether, right?

I’m sorry, could you say that more slowly? I don't remember. Wait a
minute, let me have a look. Oh, here it is. You are an American tour
group, aren’t you?

That’s right!

Twenty-three people taking fourteen rooms altogether, all on the seventh
floor. That’s right! There’s no mistake!

No! There are only twelve free rooms. Two of the rooms still have people
in them!

Still have people in them? How could that be? I thought they had left
the country this morning by way of Shěnzhèn! Why are they still
occupying the rooms?

I don't know. You'd better think of some other solution, and see if
there are any other rooms free.

I'm positive there aren’t any other free rooms. First let me try and
find out why those two rooms haven't been vacated yet. Oh! There's a
note here saying that their plans have been changed and that they're
leaving Béi-jlng at three this afternoon. Great! No more problem.

It’s only two o’clock now, how much longer do we have to wait?

They’ll have to leave their rooms at two: it takes forty minùtes to get
to the airport! It will be thirty minutes while we clean the rooms.

So we can have the rooms at two-thirty .

Right. Why don’t you go have a cup of coffee in the dining room and rest
a bit, and then it will be time.

Okay. Thank you. See you later.

See you later.
