    Steve Parkinson from Australia is coming to study in Britain. Mrs. and Mr. White have come to meet him at the airport.

    Mrs. W: There he is. Steve! Steve! Oh, he can't see us. There are so many people. Steve! We are here.

    Steve: Hello. There you are. What a crowd! Good Day. Mrs. and Mr. White.

    Mrs. W: Hello. Do you have a good journey? Is it a comfortable flight? Does everything go all right?

    Mr. W: You must be very tired. Your hotel isn't very far from here. We booked (预订) you a hotel in the city centre for tonight.

    Steve: Oh, fine. Thank you.

    Mr. W: Well, we'd better go and find a taxi.

    Mrs. W: Let's go by underground. There'll be a long queue (队伍) for taxis and the bus will take long time at this time of day. There is an underground station near the airport.

    Steve: OK. That's fine. But I should change some money. Is there a bank here?

    Mr. W: Yes, there is. You go through the second door on your left. It's in the far corner.
