一、Library policies for returning books托福听力原文：

Narrator:Listen to a conversation between a student and a library employee.Male Student:Excuse me.I received a letter...that I'm supposed to return a book that I checked out back in September—uh,it’s called Modern Social Problems—but I'm writing my senior thesis,so I thought I was allowed to keep the book for the whole academic year.Female Employee:So you signed up for“Extended Borrowing Privileges?”

Male Student:Yeah.Female Employee:And we're still asking you to bring the book back.

Male Student:Uh huh.Do I really have to?

Female Employee:Well,let me check the computer.The title was Modern Social Problems?Male Student:Yeah.Female Employee:Uh…it's been recalled.You can keep it all year as long as no one else requests it.But someone else has…it looks like one of the professors in the sociology department,so you have to bring it back.You can check it out again when it’s returned in a couple of weeks.

Male Student:Well,what if the person renews it?And I really need it right now.Female Employee:All of it,or is there a certain section or chapter you’re working with?Male Student:Well,there's one chapter in particular I’m working with,but...why?Female Employee:Well,we normally don’t do this,but because of the circumstances,we can photocopy up to one chapter of the book for you.Why don’t you do that for the one you’re working with right now—and by the time you need the rest of the book,maybe it’ll have been returned.

Male Student:Oh,well,that would be great.Female Employee:Do you have it with you?

Male Student:Uh,no.It's in my dorm room.These are books I want to check out today.Um,is it OK if I bring that by in a couple of days?Female Employee:Uh,actually,the due date is tomorrow—after that there will be a two dollar per day fine.But you need to return it today if you want to check out any books today.That’s our policy.Male Student:Oh,I see.

Female Employee:Yeah,not a lot of people realize that.In fact,every semester we get a few students who’ve had their borrowing privileges suspended completely because they haven’t returned books.They’re allowed to use books only in the library;they’re not allowed to check anything out because of unreturned books.

Male Student:That’s not good.I guess I should head back down to the dorm right now.Female Employee:But before you go,what you should do is fill out a form requesting the book back in two weeks.Then the person who requested it won't be able to renew it,and you'll get it back quickly.Male Student:I'll do that right now.

二、Library policies for returning books托福听力中文翻译：

旁白：听一段学生和图书馆职员之间的对话。男学生：对不起。我收到一封信。。。我应该归还一本我在九月份借来的书，叫做《现代社会问题》，但我正在写我的毕业论文，所以我想我可以把这本书保存一学年。女员工：那么你注册了“延长借款特权”

男学生：是的。女员工：我们仍然要求你把书拿回来。

男学生：嗯哼。我真的必须这么做吗？

女员工：好吧，让我检查一下电脑。题目是现代社会问题？男学生：是的。女员工：嗯……它被召回了。只要没有人要求，你可以把它保存一整年。但其他人有……它看起来像社会学系的一位教授，所以你必须把它带回来。你可以在几周后归还时再次查看。

男学生：嗯，如果这个人续签怎么办？我现在真的很需要它。女员工：全部都是，还是有某个部分或章节是你正在处理的？男学生：嗯，有一章是我特别研究的，但是。。。为什么？女员工：嗯，我们通常不会这样做，但由于情况的原因，我们最多可以为您复印一章。你为什么不为你现在正在一起工作的人这样做，等到你需要这本书的其余部分时，也许它已经被归还了。

男学生：哦，那太好了。女员工：你随身带着吗？

男学生：呃，不。它在我的宿舍里。这些是我今天想借的书。嗯，我几天后把它带来可以吗？女员工：呃，实际上，到期日是明天，之后每天罚款两美元。但是如果你今天想借书的话，你需要今天还书。这是我们的政策。男学生：哦，我明白了。

女员工：是的，没有多少人意识到这一点。事实上，每学期我们都会有一些学生因为没有还书而被完全取消借书特权。他们只允许在图书馆使用书籍；因为没有归还的书，他们不允许检查任何东西。

男学生：那不好。我想我现在应该回宿舍去了。女员工：但在你走之前，你要做的是填写一张表格，要求在两周内归还这本书。那么请求它的人将无法续订，您将很快得到它。男学生：我现在就去。
