A coworker from the sales department hands out free Harry Potter 3 tickets at work

Yijun: Awesome. I can’t wait to go see the new Harry Potter movie. What are you going to do with your ticket?

Bob: I’m giving mine to my daughter. She saw the first two back in England.

Yijun: I’ve read all five of the books. You’ve English. You probably read them all, too, right?

Bob: Not me. But I did wait in line all day to buy the fifth book for my daughter.

Yijun: My husband did that for me since I had to work. I just love these books.

Bob: I’m sick of Potter mania. It’s everywhere, especially in England. And it’s cost me a fortune to get everything for my daughter.

Yijun: You have to admit, the author’s story is interesting.

业务部门同事在上班时发送免费的《哈利波特三》电影票

怡君：太赞了。我等不及去看最新的《哈利波特》电影了。你的票要怎么利用?

鲍伯：我要把票给我女儿。她在英国时看过前两部。

怡君：我这五本全都读过。你是英国人。你或许也全读过对吧?

鲍伯：我可没有。但是我的确有排过一整天队就为了买第五集给我女儿。

怡君：我先生也帮我排过，因为我得工作。我真的很爱这些小说。

鲍伯：我对哈利波特疯很反感。到处都是哈利波特，尤其在英国。而且帮我女儿买这买那的，花了我不少银子。

怡君：你得承认，这位作家本身的故事很有趣。
