A: Good morning, I want to send this parcel to Canada.

B: Airmail or surface mail?

A: How long would surface mail take, compared to airmail?

B: Oh anything up to 3 or 4 months for surface mail. It depends on the sailing of the ships. Airmail would only take 1 to 2 weeks.

A: How much would this parcel cost me by airmail?

B: Just let me weigh it for you. That‘s 2 lb. and 6oz. That’ll be 10 pounds.

A: Thanks. That’ll be OK.

A：早，我想寄这个包裹到加拿大。

B：航空邮件还是普通邮件？

A：和航空邮件相比，普通邮件需要花多久的时间？

B：嗯，普通邮件需要3～4个月，视船的航行情况而定。航空邮件只要花1～2周的时间。

A：这个包裹的航空邮费是多少？

B：我来帮你称一下重量，2磅6盎司。需要10英镑。

A：谢谢。这样就可以。
