地道美語聽力播客:Finding a Book at a Bookstore
Clerk: Can I help you find something?
Adrian: Yes. Can you tell me where the non-fiction books are?
Clerk: Are you looking for hardbacks or paperbacks ?
Adrian: I’m not sure. I think hardbacks.
Clerk: Well, the non-fiction new releases are at the front of the store. The non-fictionsection is behind the fiction shelves on your right. The hardbacks are on the top shelves and the paperbacks on the bottom ones. Is there a specific book I can help you find?
Adrian: I’m looking for an old book and I’m not sure of the title . It’s something like, “TheLiterary Crisis.”
Clerk: Do you know the name of the author ?
Adrian: No, I don’t. I saw it mentioned online and I actually wrote down the ISBN , but I can’t find it now.
Clerk: Well, if it’s an old book, it may be out- of-print , but let me look it up in our system. If it was a bestseller at one time, there’s a chance that it’s still in print . Let me check…Okay, here it is. It was published in 1982, and unfortunately, it is out-of- print. You may want to try a used bookstore, like Bookwoman’s down the street.
Adrian: Thanks, I’ll give them a try . I’m also looking for a biography. Can you tell me where they are?
Clerk: Sure. The biographies are behind the reference section over there. Let me know if you need any more help.
Adrian: Thanks. I appreciate it.
