May: I'm going to look for some reference books, newspapers and periodicals. Can we meet at the counter in 2 hours?

Dad: OK, honey!

(Counter)

Librarian: Your admission card, please.

May: Here you are.

Librarian: Sorry, newspapers and periodicals are not for circulation.

May: OK, if I want to read them, what should I do?

Librarian: You can read them only in one of our reading rooms.

May: All right.

Librarian: Are those books yours?

May: Yes, these are my father's books.

Librarian: OK, that's done. Please check your record and deadline in the computer over there.

May: Thanks.

阿美：我去找一些参考书、报纸和周刊。我们两个小时后在借书处见可以吗？

爸爸：好的，亲爱的。

图书员：请给我你的借书卡。

阿美：给你。

图书员：对不起，报纸和周刊是不外借的。

阿美：好的，那如果是我要看怎么办呢？

图书员：只能够在我们的阅览室阅读。

阿美：好的。

图书员：这些书都是你的吗？

阿美：是的，这些都是我爸爸的。

图书员：好了，办完了。请去那边的电脑查询你的记录和书到期的时间。

阿美：谢谢。

May: Dad and I go to the library sometimes. The problem is newspapers and periodicals are not for circulation. I can only read them in their reading room. It's not very convenient this way. But the good thing is that I can check my records and the book's deadlines on the computer near the counter.
