A: Hello, Maxwell's Steakhouse. Trudy speaking. How may I help you?

你好，马克斯韦尔牛排馆，我是特鲁迪，有什么可以为您服务的吗？

B: I am terribly sorry, but I need to cancel a reservation I made for this evening.

实在非常抱歉，我需要取消今晚的预约。

A: Oh, that's unfortunate. Under what name was the reservation made?

那真是遗憾，请问订位的名字是？

B: Mr. Lai.

赖先生。

A: Oh, there are actually two Mr. Lais listed tonight.

实际上名单中有两位赖先生。

B: That's right. The other reservation was made by my brother. We had a breakdown in communication and we both made reservations for the same night.

没错，另一个是我弟弟定的，我们没沟通好，所以我们在同一晚上都订了位。

A: And you want to cancel one of the reservations.

因此，你想要取消其中的一个预约。

B: That's correct.

是的。

A: I'll cancel one of them, but I'm sorry to inform you that we charge $100 for cancellations.

我会取消其中一个，可是因为取消的缘故，我很抱歉告诉您，我们会收100美元。

B: You can't be serious. That's daylight robbery.

你不是在开玩笑吧，这根本是光天化日下抢劫

A: I'm sorry sir. It's management policy. May I have your credit card number？

对不起先生，这是管理部门的规定。

请问您的银行卡卡号多少？

B: No, you can't! Just cancel both reservations. 

不，你不能这样，把两个订位都取消吧。
