Daniel: Do you have any idea of what kind of materials we should buy?

Tom: Not at all. But Mrs. Li once recommended 30 Nights on Math.

Daniel: Oh, come on, more like 30 nights on nightmares. You know how I hate math.

Tom: Me too. Come upstairs. I bet we can get them on the second floor.

Daniel: My dad asked me to get a book for him, The World Is Flat.

Tom: What section is it in?

Daniel: Geography, I think.

Tom: Then let's have a look at the geography section.

Daniel: OK. Have you found it? I haven't seen it yet. I wonder when dad has become interested in geography. Weird.

Tom: Let's go and ask the salesclerk.

Daniel: Excuse me, do you know a book called The World Is Flat?

Salesman: The World Is Flat? Let me think. Do you know who the author is? I will look it up for you.

Daniel: No, I don't remember clearly. The guy has a very complicated name.

Salesman: Well, do you know what publisher it is?

Daniel: I don't know. But my dad said that it was world famous and millions of its copies had been sold.

Salesman: Oh, you can go to the best-seller section. Maybe you will find it there. It's right on the first floor.

丹尼尔: 你想好买什么资料了吗？

汤姆: 没有，但是李老师曾经推荐给我们一本《数学三十夜》。

丹尼尔: 噢，行了，更像是三十夜噩梦。你知道我有多么厌恶数学。

汤姆: 我也是。上楼来吧。我打赌我们能在二层找到它们。

丹尼尔: 我爸爸让我给他买本书，《世界是平的》。

汤姆: 是关于什么的？

丹尼尔: 我觉得应该是地理方面的。

汤姆: 那我们看看地理图书区有没有。

丹尼尔: 好的。你找到了吗？我还没有看见呢。我在想爸爸什么时候对地理感兴趣了？真奇怪。

汤姆: 我们去问问售货员吧。

丹尼尔: 打扰一下，你知道有一本书叫《世界是平的》吗？

售货员: 《世界是平的》？让我想想。你知道作者是谁的吗？我帮你查查。

丹尼尔: 不，我记不太清楚了。他的名字非常复杂。

售货员: 嗯，你知道是哪个出版社出的吗？

丹尼尔: 我不知道，但是我爸爸说那本书世界闻名，已经卖了好几百万册了。

售货员: 你可以去畅销书区看看，也许你可以在那儿找到。就在一层右侧。
