Dialogue

At the Post office

Clerk :             Hello. May I help you?
Somsri :            Hello! I’d like to send this package to Thailand.
Clerk :             Sure. Would you rather send it by air or ground?
Somsri :            What is the difference?
Clerk :             It takes up to 60 days to deliver it if it is sent by ground and about
                    2 weeks by air.
Somsri :            Oh, I’d prefer to get it there as soon as possible.
Clerk :             Would you like to insure the package? You can get some money
                    back in case your package gets lost.
Somsri :            Yes, certainly.
Clerk :             Let’s weigh it now. It’s 20 pounds.
Somsri :            20 pounds! When I weighted it at home it was only 9.2 kilograms.
Clerk :             Right, 1 pound is 0.46 kilograms.
Somsri :            O.K. How much do I have to pay?
