Borrowing a Book from the School Library

1.

Nabil: Good morning, sir. I would like to borrow a storybook.

Librarian: Good morning, Nabil. Which book do you want?

Nabil: Do you have The Adventures of Tom Sawyer?

Librarian: Let me check. Yes, we have one copy, and you may borrow it.

Nabil: Thank you, sir. What do I need to do?

Librarian: Please give me your library card. I will write the book in your name.

Nabil: Here it is. How long may I keep the book?

Librarian: You may keep it for seven days. Please return it by next Thursday.

Nabil: What if I cannot finish it in seven days?

Librarian: You may ask to keep it longer if no other student needs it.

Nabil: Is there any rule I should remember?

Librarian: Yes. Keep the book clean and safe. Do not write on it or fold the pages.

Nabil: What should I do if I find a damaged page?

Librarian: Tell me at once. Then we will know that it was already damaged.

Nabil: I want to read more storybooks to improve my English.

Librarian: That is a good habit. Regular reading can help you learn new words.

Nabil: Thank you very much, sir.

Librarian: You are welcome. Enjoy the book.

Nabil: Good morning, sir. I would like to borrow a storybook.

Librarian: Good morning, Nabil. Which book do you want? I finished my old book yesterday. Now I want another story.

Nabil: Do you have The Adventures of Tom Sawyer?

Librarian: Let me check. Yes, we have one copy, and you may borrow it. I heard about this story in class. My friend also liked it.

Nabil: Thank you, sir. What do I need to do?

Librarian: Please give me your library card. I will write the book in your name. Please check the book before taking it. Tell me about any damaged page.

Nabil: Here it is. How long may I keep the book?

Librarian: You may keep it for seven days. Please return it by next Thursday. The card shows which book you take and when you must return it.

Nabil: What if I cannot finish it in seven days?

Librarian: You may ask to keep it longer if no other student needs it. Seven days is enough for most students to read this short story.

Nabil: Is there any rule I should remember?

Librarian: Yes. Keep the book clean and safe. Do not write on it or fold the pages. Ask me before Thursday. I can give more time if nobody needs it.

Nabil: What should I do if I find a damaged page?

Librarian: Tell me at once. Then we will know that it was already damaged. Use a clean bookmark. Keep food and water away from the book.

Nabil: I want to read more storybooks to improve my English.

Librarian: That is a good habit. Regular reading can help you learn new words. Storybooks teach new words and make English reading more enjoyable. This idea is simple and easy to follow.

Nabil: Thank you very much, sir.

Librarian: You are welcome. Enjoy the book.
