　　Telephonist: Good morning. Vane Theater, at your service.

　　Shirley: Hello. I'm thinking about watching a Chinese traditional opera with a foreign girl. What's on this weekend?

　　Telephonist: Well, there will be charity performance on Saturday night. And also, there will be a solo concert by an opera star on Sunday night.

　　Shirley: It's a good thing that I have choices here. Can you tell me about the one on Saturday?

　　Telephonist: Sure. It's to raise money for the homeless.

　　Shirley: What about the performance itself?

　　Telephonist: Oh, it's a reserved opera named “The Monkey Creates Havoc in Heaven”.

　　Shirley: Wow, a story about the clever Monkey King. It's a classic and children's favorite.

　　Telephonist: It surely is. And the cast is really the best.

　　Shirley: Wonderful! How much is the ticket?

　　Telephonist: The price varies according to the seats. 300 for the front, 200 for the middle, and 50 for the back. Which kind would you like?

　　Shirley: Two for the front. One last thing, are there any English subtitles for the show?

　　Telephonist: Yes, we have subtitles both in Chinese and English on the big-screen just beside the stage.

　　Shirley: Terrific. May I stop by to get that two tickets tomorrow afternoon?

　　Telephonist: Sure. And our theater is located on Liberty Avenue, just opposite the biggest guitar store. Can I have your name?
