M: Hello.
W: Hello.(19)I wonder if you could help me. I received this note yesterday.
M: Let’s see.(19)Yes. It’s 15 pounds for a lost book.
W:(20)But I didn’t lose the book. I’m quite sure I returned it.
M:(20)Let me check. Just a minute.(21)Our record shows that you checked it out on September 27 and we have no record of its being returned.
W: I’m sure I returned it. I remember that it was a rainy day and I had to carry it in a plastic bag.
M: Well, our policy is that, when a book is lost, the borrower must pay for it. We have to be fair about these things.
W: I understand your position. Is there a way we can check to see if the book is here, just in case someone missed it?
M: Well, I don’t think we have made a mistake. But you can look for it on the shelf.(Later...)
W: Here it is.
M: Let me see if it’s the right edition. I’ll check the number on it with our records.
W: I’m sorry to bother you with this.
M: Well, we could have missed something. Yes, it is the right edition. You are right. I’m awfully sorry.
W: That’s all right.
M:(22)Sometimes we get in a hurry and forget to check some books in. That must be how it has happened. I’m very sorry.
W: Don’t worry about that.
M: Thanks for coming in.

解析 事实细节题。男士查看了女士的借阅记录,记录显示女士是9月27日把书借走的,但是没有还书的记录。由此可知,女士于9月27日把书借走。
