Checking the Lost and Found
Julian is speaking to Ronda, a transportation official, at a train station.
J: Excuse me. Is this the office that collects lost items?
R: Yes, I’m in charge of the lost and found. How can I help you?
J: I left my bag on a bench on one of the train platforms last night.
R: Well, if someone turned it in, we should have it here.
J: I hope that’s what happened. I was on the train about 10 minutes before I realized it was missing.
R: What does it look like?
J: It’s a small, brown messenger bag with a grey strap and two silver buckles.
R: All right. Was there anything valuable inside?
J: There was a nice pair of sunglasses inside. Apart from that, there were some important work documents in there.
R: Give me a second.

R: Is this the bag you lost?
J: Yes! That’s it. I’m so glad it wasn’t stolen.
R: Take a look and see if everything is inside.
J: Oh, no. It looks like the sunglasses are gone. Oh, well. At least my work papers are still here.
R: Sorry to hear that. Before you go, you need to fill out this form and sign it.
J: No problem. Thanks for your help.
