* Speaking
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.
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.
When I arrived, the bag was gone. I asked for help, but
the people at the airport were very 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.
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. That’s
not at all. My plane was two hours late. According to
your schedule, the plane would depart from Chengdu
at 1:25 in the afternoon. I even asked to twice to make
sure because I had an important meeting that evening
and that why I choose to take this flight instead of
others. Still when I got to the airport, they said that the
time had been changed to 3:25.
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 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. The ticket
was expensive. …
B: Well, I understand that you are very upset and I
would like to make you feel better. I think you had bad
luck that day. We try to give everyone good service,
but it sounds like we failed. Can we make it up to you
by offering a free flight?
