  20. Oral practice When we’re travelling, we may meet something dissatisfying. In this case usually we make complaints(抱怨,投诉) and hope that somebody will apologise to us and make explanations.

  21. Useful expressions 表示抱怨 I hate to have to say this, but… Could you do something about it? That’s too bad. I’m totally unsatisfied with the service here. Something has to be done to solve the problem. I can’t stand it any more. That’s just too much. Something must be done about the service here. Why don’t you do something about it?

  22. 表示关切和道歉 I am so sorry. I’ll look into it at once. I hope it’s nothing serious. Please tell me what’s the matter. I apologize for troubling you so much. I’ll do everything I can to help you. I’m sorry but I didn’t mean to… It’s really a pity.

  23. Speaking Work in pairs. Use the role cards below to act out the situations.

  24. Sample dialogues B: Good morning! How can I help you? A: I’m sorry to say that I’m very unhappy about your service. I flew from Chengdu to Hangzhou and it was the worst flight of my life.

  25. B: I’m sorry to hear that. Please tell me what happened and I’ll see what I can do about it. A: Well, first of all, your airline lost one of my bags. I asked for help, but the people at the airport were very

  26. rude. I hate to have to say this, but I think that they are unfriendly and impolite. They just said that they couldn’t do anything about it and that it was my responsibility to look for the bag.

  27. B: Hmm, I agree that they didn’t do their job. I will mention this to my boss so that he can talk to them. Did you find the bag? A: Yes, I did, but it took more than three hours. What’s worse, My plane was two hours late.As a result I was late for an important meeting!

  28. B: Well, sometimes flights are changed. It can be because of the weather or some other problems. We can’t be always sure that the plane will take off on time. A: Why didn’t you tell me the truth? When I book the ticket, I explained

  29. that I had to get there on time and you said it was no problem. B: I’m sorry, we cannot control things like the weather. A: And the food on the plane was terrible.
